Problem with this is that I have to then create a tar file on the remote
machine, because if I login with sftp from my remote machine, that account
wont have access to read all the files it needs to read.

Howdy,
My server has an 18 gig drive in it. I'm looking to do incremental backups
every night, where my entire /ext partition will be mirrored elsewhere
(/ext is the only thing with anything special on it that would need to be
recreated).
I was thinking of either backing up to my home machine, which for the most
part has a static IP (dynamic every 3-4 months), or getting an external
hard drive. The server is a 1U.
Does anyone have any suggestions, both for how to do this, and what kind
of media to use? (External hard drive, tape drive, remote backup to my
home machine, etc.)
Thanks!
Regards,
Matt

Imho if possible a remote location should be the backup site as that
gives you a backup even if the Server is destroyed by *insert
something nasty here* pull the backup from your homemaschine and you
need not worry about dynamic ips.
