I'd like bacula, but it's not rather too much for a single client? I'm 
looking for something that's backup my ubuntu and my data for a local 
single isolated notebook that i use to work. What i need it's make an 
initial backup and then incremental ones week after week to prevent a 
system crash and data lost. Of course, the backups are going to be saved 
on an external disk.
Give me a hint. I hope that i am expressing clear. And thanxs for your 
answer.


Diego.
