   About five years ago, I called BRU looking for general info on backup
   solutions for various Unix servers at our computer lab.

   The result was (a) some literature on a product I didn't want to buy
   at the time, and (b) avalanches of junk mail and followup phone calls
   lasting about two years afterward...

   Maybe I could get their sales department to work for my current company!


So what do you recommend for backup on Linux?  tar or cpio?  dump?
NFS via ISP?
