Be aware that rsync is useful for making a *copy* of your files, which isn't always the best backup. If the goal is to preserve data and be able to recover in time of disaster, it's probably not optimal, while if you need frequent access to old or deleted files it's fine.

If you want to do real backups you should use real tools, like bacula
etc.


I wouldn't agree here. All depends on how you organize yuor things, write
scripts, and so on. It isn't any less "real" solution than amanda or bacula.
It's much more DIY solution though, so not everyone will be inclined to use it.

ps.
Sorry for offtopic. Last in this subject from me.
