I guess I would use rsnapshot to backup to another disk/machine if I had only a small number of machines to backup. If the server is rather critical, or there more than a handfull of machines to backup, I would think about a full featured backup suite like bacula. Both can eventually combined with using LVM snapshots. Bye... Dirk
