Frank, all that sounds good, except for a few questions, httpd, you said
point dns to two servers. How does this redundant httpd. If it stops, or
crashes or is SYN flooded, how does this keep httpd running?

named, I can see this, simply set up primary and secondary. OK.

smtp and pop3, this as you probably guessed is sendmail, and I may run qmail
for my virtual hosts, can you setup a secondary sendmail. Actually now that
I think about it, I think redundancy on the email is stupid. I just need a
good backup system. In case of a fatal crash.

The only real redundancy I need is httpd and radius, for authentication.
Anything else should be ok to die for just a few short hours, but I need a
quick backup recovery plan. Will BRU help me in this regard??

When you back up multiple partitions in linux, does it restore or do you
have to partition first?

Enough of this, you have already been a huge help. I thank you.
