Of course, Debian offers other backup packages as well. They are less complex than Amanda or Bacula, but more suited to smaller environments. Most use standard file archiving utilities, and offer remote storage options (either via standard remote file specification or by using a client and server approach). Some offer backup cycle management utilities, backup encryption, communications encryption, and even deduplication when using special backup storage formats. Synaptic or apt-cache can be used to search for these packages using the search term backup.
Some administrators prefer to keep iteven simpler and write their own short scripts which use the basic archiving commands (such as rsync, tar, or the EXT dumpj restore commands) to perform backups as a scheduled CRON job.
