I like rsnapshot. I retired two years ago, but that's how we backed up all our unix boxes and one didn't have to remember much to recover files in a panic situation. Just go to the last snapshot before whatever terrible event happened and, unless you put your irreplaceable gem in and then blew it up between backups, it's just a case of cp or scp. Martin
