I'm using `tob' after looking into several options including afbackup. I guess it depends a lot on your needs. For mine afbackup seemed like overkill. I only need to backup user data on a small group server, 10 or so users. The nice thing with tob is that you can make full, differential (all changes since last full backup) and incremental (all changes since last backup of any type). -- Olaf Meeuwissen Epson Kowa Corporation, Research and Development
