Ah, that makes sense. I am using a similar minimal backup for some of my remote 
Web servers (I am also backing up web sites, home directories etc.). One 
additional thing I am backing up: I run "rpm -qa" into a file (as a Client Run 
Before Job) and back up that file. That way, I know which packages I need 
during disaster recovery.
