[cobalt-users] Backups



What do you guys do about backups? I'd like to backup up whole server in a
way that would allow me to make a fast recovery, I have about 40 domains on
my raq3, and it is located remotely, so I can't think about tape.

I could cron a tar/gzip scp the file to another server, but what files
should I tar. Obviously the whole /home tree, what else? I have compiled
some software, such as php4, so I would be pretty stuck even if I had a new
clean box to restore to.
