Hi
I think there are a number of ways of doing this. If you have ssh access to the computer that will hold the backups, I suggest you read a bit on rsync or rdiff-backup. The man pages have some examples you can use. "rdiff-backup" makes a differential backup so you can find files deleted a long time ago.
Alternatively, if you have some harddisk space on your local computer, you can use tar to make incremental backups, so that each new backup produces a separate tar file with only the new or changes files. Then you can put that new file to the backup server with ftp.
Best regards,
Guttorm.
