You missed rsync.
Rsync is another one-off approach where you have to roll your own
commands per target. Backuppc can use rsync as the transport,
collating all the results into one centrally managed archive with a
web interface that makes it easier to set up than rsync itself. Plus
it will compress the data and pool all identical content so you can
keep much more history online than you would expect.
I use backuppc, but find that in order to restore one has to be or know
the admin user password.
There appears to be no way to open this up to users to directly see and
restore from the file tree that it manages.....
