I don't like Jungle disk because it maxxes out at 5 gigs (a limitation of S3) and I've got mail files that are much larger than that.

This again? For backing up a load of desktops/servers, backuppc is pretty awesome. Web based interface, easy restore etc.

Also very handy for other purposes. You can use it to roll your own distro (PC/OS uses it), and I have used it to create a backup CD so I can take my Ubuntu install anywhere. and have the same desktop, bookmarks etc on any computer.

Well I did use Remastersys to make gOS Ultimate E (might make a new one to include Firefox 3.0.1 downloaded using Ubuntuzilla) and Xubuntu Xtreme (8.04.1 and 7.10.1).

Here is another Free Linux Utility worth checking out. R1Soft Hot Copy (<a class="user" href="http://www.r1soft.com/tools/linux-hot-copy/)">http://www.r1soft.com/tools/linux-hot-copy/)</a> A Linux command line utility (hcp) that takes online snapshots of disks or volumes on your Linux server. It does NOT use LVM so it can work on any Linux system and any block device! It creates a point-in-time snapshot of the disk while the system is running, without interrupting applications even on the busiest Linux servers.
