Hi Everybody!

I am looking for a backup solution for our server. It runs FreeBSD-3.4S. I
don't need any network solution and stuff, i just want to backup to harddisks
(~30GB each). the media is 30GB-DAT-Tapes. right now i am using tar and it
works quite well, but we have to restore single files quite often, and it
really takes to much time to restore a file with tar. so my requirements are
(1) multiple volume support (would be great if i can enable software
compression on multiple volume archives)
(2) fast recovery of files (-> prog has to write an index of the files)
(3) support of multiple backup sets (configurations) (e.g. backup system only,
backup fileserver stuff only etc.)
(4) easy to use (via GUI on vnc or runinning in the background or whatever),
because unix-non-professionals have to administrate it. maybe tell people via
mail that the next volume is needed etc.

i think thats the most importent stuff. does anybody know a good solution for
this? thank you very much for your support!

regards,
	Klaus
