There was a lot of discussion of some backup solutions on this list
earlier this year (e.g. in March, April, June, July and September).
Perhaps you could be more precise in what you are looking for. E.g. what
do you mean by "backup an entire server". Hey, you could just use dd to
copy blocks to tape! Is the tape drive plugged into the server or is it
across a network? Would you prefer incremental backups? If this is a
repeat of the "mirror image of the system...across LAN to a central
backup server 3 x DDS4 DAT units" inquiry you made in July, could you
please tell us what you did with the suggestions that were made in July?
