An even better alternative (IMHO) is Bacula <http://bacula.org/>. It
supports a wide range of
platforms<http://bacula.org/rel-manual/Supported_Operating_Systems.html>,
including Windows PCs (backup client only). As for a GUI, it only comes with
bimagemgr<http://bacula.org/rel-manual/GUI_Programs.html#SECTION000222000000000000000>,
a web interface only useful to those who backup strictly to disk or CDs. It
also comes with some text-based console utilities for Windows and Gnome to
help centralize management, but most of your work  will still have to be
done on the backup server anyway. And, of course, the documentation is
terrific.
