It's OK. A versioned backup system (dump/restore, Legato Networker, Amanda, Retrospect, etc) is more efficient at using backup storage. > Should I use the rsyncd or should I use NFS? I'm using 100 mbps ethernet. If it's local and you already have NFS in place, that would be fine. If you're backing up over a WAN, rsyncd is probably a better call. > What's the better solution I haven't considered? Lots. The handbook has a chapter on backups which is worth reading, also....
