I need to recommend some backup options for a web server running CentOS 4.1. The client prefers using a tape drive as their backup device and has access to safe offsite storage. I was thinking of system backups weekly and differential backups nightly but don't know what software to recommend for the differential b/u's. For full backups I can just schedule a tar and compress using cron.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

if the website uses some sort of sql database, and your backup software isn't explicitly database aware, remember to dump the database and backup the dump rather than the raw DB files...
