Hi, just wanted to make a quick note. For a long time we were using
tar to tape for a lot of Linux and Unix backups at client sites.
(That, or we used something like Lone-tar.) Recently, we've started
using BackupPC for disk-based backups (BackupPC also created archives
for off-site storage), and we love it. It works GREAT, has support for
Windows, and has one of the most disk-efficient pooling schemes I've
come across.
