Thanks a lot.

Surely I must give it a try.

For mac and linux I prefer rsync method, so please provide me few
online docs which you think as a starting point for a newbie on backuppc.
Obviously I need automated schedule backup system which take backup from client,
and from servers (mysql DB, htdocs, system files).

Thanks for your time.
