I am currently investigating options for backing up serveral servers. Up until now, we have been backing up data onto a secondary hard drive on the same system. (Yes, I know, not a very good way of handling this) We would like to begin backing data up to a remote location.

Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations on ways to do this or perhaps services that you have used to backup server data?

Server Configurations:
3 x Windows 2003
1 x Fedora Core 1

I have a remote server that is mainly used for backups customer web sites and data. I backup things using rsync~ :angel:

Hey,

A secondary hard drive is better than nothing ;) If you have cpanel on your fc1 server you can use the ftp backup option to make the backups. Otherwise, like YUPAPA said you will need to use rsync or write your own custom script (not that hard).

I don't have much knowledge in win on hosting environments, someone else here will be able to help you.
