Also take a look at (free) KBackup.  Nice job done there.  I have BRU
and like it a lot but for one nit.  You have to underspecify the size of
your tapes - if you don't and the backup runs out of tape, it dies
rather than gracefully failing over to request a new tape.  KBackup
fails over correctly.
