    Thanks everyone who replied. I evaluated quite a few utilites and tried
    usign simple scripts using tar/gzip and cp. Right now I am using ibackup
    script and it seems to do a great job ... it tars/compresses the selected
    files that are in it's conf file, then copies them under /root default but
    can be changed. It's also possible to encrypt the tarball. It'll be nice
    if it had the funtionality to remote login via ssh or some other secure
    method and backup the copy of the generated file to some web/webdav/ftp
    server. Does anyone know of such a script or utility?

    Regards,
    Deboo
