I have 3 computer running on Debian Squeeze. One has an unused hard drive that I wish to use as a backup disk for all 3 computers. Is there a simple way to do this that can be completely automated.

I'd recommend avoiding rsnapshot as hard-link trees just don't scale and cause filesystem metadata problems.
