Backing up our InternetServer would be a very good idea.

MattBrodeur and BenScott worked to set up an rsync-over-ssh scheme for backing up some of the web site.

Can anyone provide details?

Yes.

What is the frequency and where are the backups kept? And where are the scripts?

I don't know. (Ted just asked if someone could provide details. ) All I know is that MattBrodeur has a big pile of disk storage at home, and he's using rsnapshot to make backups of liberty. He mailed me an SSH public key, which was put into /root/.ssh/authorized_keys, with restrictions such that it can only be used to run rsync, and only from his home IP address.
