I have used the Arkeia tool a couple of times, and it works fairly well.
The downside is that the personal edition cannot be scheduled. I really
want to run my backups at night, and I cannot do that with the personal
Arkeia edition.
Guess I will have to cough up the money for BRU.

I agree that you sort of did; there was every reason to expect that a
proper Personal Edition of BRU2000 would continue to be part of Red Hat.
One thing you ought to maybe check out is the Arkeia tool from Knox
Software (http://www.arkeia.com). It is a backup tool that, though I
haven't actually used it for a real backup yet (waiting for a shipment
of tapes), is very user-friendly and seems to behave not all that
differently from BRU. Arkeia is on the apps CD, and a little secret
about it is that (like almost everything else on that CD I've looked
into) you can download it for free.
Anybody out there using this one?
