I think rsync will be the best choice. Current thoughts: I will use rsync to backup my files and setup a cron job to run everynight. I actually think that I can do the afore mentiones to back up my files and use "Norton's Ghost" to back up the server to a DVD. Bigger Picture: If Nagios goes down, I can be back up in a couple of hours. I will just have to setup the RAID on the box, re-image it with Ghost and replace the 'cfg' files with the latest backups. Thanks for the help! Colby
