I need a reliable backup solution for my linux server. Here are methods I have explored, unsuccessfully so far.

My initial thoughts were to copy my linux data to the Windows server, and then let their backup process save my data.
I just recalled another tool/method that you might want to look at - namely rsync
Here is a nice summary of one method employing it with automated scripts:

Rsync is a fantastic tool - especially when combined with ssh.
