Well you said Freeware, and the best fit it tar, in fact I think it is
better than some commercial stuff, as long as you do not need so called
"agents" like connectors to Oracle or something for Hot back-up/restore.
You can make some really neat scripts for tar using cron jobs, at jobs,
and even rsync/ssh to do some extensive backup routines. Tar also can be
called to compress and use tape devices.
