BackupPC (http://backuppc.sourceforge.net) is really great for grabbing
a few old files and with the help of a run-from-CD Linux like Knoppix
can do a bare-metal restore. The only thing in has in common with
MimeDefang is that it is a perl script... The author went so far
as to rewrite most of rsync in perl so you need nothing but standard
programs on the client boxes (you can use tar, smb, or rsync access
methods) and it uses compression and linking of duplicate files to
minimize space used.
