I was thinking a lot about backup solutions after i lost my hard drive and had to recover from like 7 CDs,
I found a potential backup solution which would be fast enough, and best of all there would be no need in losing a huge amount of time on writing the backups to cds as well as spending money on them.
The solution I found is building a file server or in other words backup server.
I looked up in google but I didnt find anything which will allow me to:
1) have linux operating system on the server (performance...)
2) have client/server interface with sheduled back ups.
3) have the linux version very lite for not spending expensive disk space on useless OS packages (I know i can just skip them, but why not find something which is born for that?)
If there is no linux solution (although i doubt that), windows is OK too
Basicly, what i want is your suggestions.
EDIT: any other live backup utilities suggestions are wellcomed too
