Backup software

[Modred189]

I can't tell if this is the best place to put this but...

My wife and I are bad at remembering to manually backup files. Like my master's thesis. I used to have an hp external autobackup thing, but it died. No, I killed it by tinkering.

SO I was wondering if anyone knows some opensource backup software that will automatically backup files to a networked location...?

I know you said networked location, but how much data are we talking about.

for small jobbies Mozy free/pro is amazing...

You can use Amanda to backup to Amazon servers, but its a "for fee" service.

carbonite works also. Also a "for fee"... or rsync...

rsync/rdiff put it in a script that's scheduled with a cron job
