Has anybody has experience with backing up over slow N/W's (min. 256k)?

Unfortunately the clients are NOT Windows boxes so I can not use adaptive
backup or journaling features. Currently I am not aware of the daily
change rate of data on each system. My initial thoughts are to perform a
staggered initial backup and then once complete implement a daily
incremental backup. Things that I am looking for would be advice on the
best performance tuning parameters to use.

Thanks in advance
