Not sure if it's any use to anyone on here, but backuppc (available in the
repositories) is a very nice solution, as it's a perl based with a nice web
interface that allows backup using SMB, rsync over SSH, etc.

It handles incremental backups nicely and gives an easy method of restoring
files and folders as well.  I'm currently using it to backup a handful of
remote sites to our head office and it's very effective.

Might be worth a look.
