I use duply for data backups. Pros: - push backups via ssh - encrypted with gpg key1 - signed with gpg key2 - built in file checksumming my scenario: running several servers in a data center and a central backup storage. My backups should still be secure if one of those gets hacked. because of the gpg encryption, I can crypt backups with the public part of key1, but I can save the private part for encryption offline on a paper/usb stick in a safe (this works for my private and my professional stuff at work). > Personally (not professionally), I only back up user data, and > use a puppet recipe to configure my servers, so that if I need > to restore them I can do so by running the puppet script on a > pristine Debian install. same here, using puppet to configure the hole maschine. > For user data I mostly use rdiff-backup.
