[CS-FSLUG] backup strategies

[Frank Bax]

I'm looking for comments on Linux system I'm planning to put together - 
actually two systems in two cities.  The only purpose of these systems is 
to replace NT40 systems that only provided file shares.
Disk 1:
	- two Linux partitions - one for current install - one for upgrades
	- swap partition
	- data partition to hold all shares (samba).
Disk 2:
	- backup/copy of Disk1
Disk 3:
	- archive backup of Disk2 - I've written a script that keeps versions of 
files as they change.  This disk would have most recent 9 (for example) 
versions of any file on Disk2.
Disk 4:
	- offsite backup - copy of remote Disk3 (using rsync).

Two sites would be setup.  Disk4 of each system would have copy of Disk3 
for the other system.  I already do Disk2&3 on a Linux system for backup of 
NT4 system.
