Create Incremental Snapshot-style Backups With rSync And SSH


"As neither human nor computers are perfect (humans err / computers may fail) it is quite obvious that a good backup system will prevent too much damage once the computer may go down. This could be either because the harddrive is failing, because of hackers, because you accidentally deleted something important"


If you've got a spare box sitting around, this can be a really convenient way of backing up. Particularly useful for those of us who run tele-housed machines, and the like, where the providers charge like a wounded bull for the privilege of backing up your data.
