I'm in the process of employing the following backup scheme: 1) Take a snapshot using mksnap_ffs 2) Mount the snapshot 3) rsync the mounted snapshot to a remote server 4) Unmount and delete local snapshot 5) Take a new snapshot on the remote computer 6) Rotate old snapshots 7) Somehow export the snapshots back to the original computer So I've got 1-6 working. This gived my a space efficient backup system, remotely stored. As to pt. 7, I was thinking of using NFS, but since the remote server is behind NAT, this seems unfeasible. So now what? NFS over VPN? ggated/ggatec? Other solutions?
