Offsite backups-What program?

B

Bill-Hayward

I would like to do offsite backups for my small non-profit, about 25
employees. I already do backups to tape, and would like this to be an
additional backup.

I would like to buy a PC with a large hard drive, set it up at home, with a
DSL connection and use it as a backup, across the internet.

Are there programs available that would allow me to backup our computers,
across the internet to our computer, at another location? I think it would be
great if it worked like a normal backup program, I can set the time for it to
start, and repeat regularly, and backup to a remote location.

I know that you can get this service for a monthly fee, to backup to their
computers. I want to do it to mine/ours.

Does anyone know of programs that will do this?

thank you,
Bill

I use something called "Second Copy" to supplement my "real"
backup utility.

Second Copy has some sort of FTP option built into it - but I'm
too clueless about peer-to-peer internet stuff to tell if it's
real-world usable.

Might be worth a download of the trial version and a little
reading.
