-!!Back up your data using VERITAS's Backup Exec  
-  
-Veritas are cool. (They employ [geek goddesses|http://www.georgyforgov.com/], though that's another story. ) Their Backup Exec product for Windows is very nice, and even has a Linux agent that lets you back up remote Linux servers .  
-  
-They have a [document|http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/241989.htm] that tells you how to set it up, but because you run Debian, you're going to want to do things a bit differently.  
-  
-Untar and install to /usr/local/bkupexec. Create an /etc/bkupexec directory and copy the agent.cfg from /usr/local/bkupexec into it.  
-  
-Then, get the BackupExecAgentInitScript, run  
- # update-rc.d bkupexec defaults 96  
-and you're away laughing.
