Whenever anyone mentions backups, I like to plug the backuppc program 
(http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/index.html and packaged in EPEL).  It 
uses compression and hardlinks all duplicate files to keep much more 
history than you'd expect on line with a nice web interface - and does 
pretty much everything automatically.
