Many a backup prgram for linux. dd if you want a simple one that can be paired with grep and
other comand line stuff to make it do advanced things. Others too checkout freshmeat.

All Linux distros come with TAR installed by default. Originally this was used for tape backups (the name is a contraction and shortening of Tape ARchive). "man tar" for usage details. Also check out Amanda.

If you are looking for a corporate version, check out Arcstore.

If you use KDE then check out the Kdar/Dar combo.
