I'm concerned about my data at Rackshack. (Don't say move!)
I would like to backup my server at our office in FL. We are connected thru hispeed cable modem. We plan on the main back up to be on the 2nd HD in the Rackshack server.
However, I would like to run a rsync program to a machine in my office every couple days .Just for peace of mind.
My question is what would be a resonable way to do this? We have an old computer running linux/redhat would that be ok or can we get a low cost server? Any ideas would be great! Also Any ideas on how to setup the nightly backup on the main server?
We are using H-sphere for hosting, it backups its data but not the whole server.
THanks
