Hey,

  This is quite unrelated really.  But, what backup solutions are there
for FreeBSD/UNIX boxen in general.  I know that there is BRU for, I
think, Linux but maybe also UNIX.  Other than that I know very little.
  While I know I can just make a tar file I would like something a bit
more featured.  Any ideas/suggestions?

  Thanks,

-lewiz.
