Actually, with the possibility of nfs, my data could be anywhere and just
mounted at /nas/web-backup :)
Also, the --link-dest= flag I use is the hard link snapshots you're asking
about. It creates a new generation of links each day, and keeps a rotating
week of them. It's not N backups, it's
I see I follow a different backup policy from Sambo.
Sambo keeps the last N backups in the same physical hard disk (or maybe
RAID array). I keep a backup in a removable device. My policy is to
never trust a single interconnected system with my data (so that I'll
not suffer massive data loss if m

I notice the anomaly both /home and /public get rsync'ed into
$MOUNT/home-public.
Could it be that /public has files with the same name as deleted files
in /home?
(Not to mention the more serious problem that $MOUNT/home-public would
contain only files from /public, no files from /home.)

I have a backup script using rsync. I've included part of it below. For some
reason, everything seems to work OK except that files don't get deleted from
the backup copy of /home (I've marked the problem with a comment). Since the
params I specify on all lines of the script are the same, I can't
