Hi Gavin,

If you want something a bit closer to Time Machine than rsync, check out
rsnapshot and/or BackupPC.  The former is more scheduled and is a
relatively thin wrapper around rsync.  The latter wraps rsync (and other
backup methods) in a simple, easy-to-use web interface and an automated
ping-then-rsync backup method.  I use BackupPC for all my desktops,
laptops, and servers.

Regards,
Paul
