thanks for your reply, and thanks for your offer. I've heard about bacula
and know it requires a bacula-server. However, as we have a limited amount
of free outbound traffic, we'd probably exhaust this when doing backups
(inbound traffic to the provider's ftp server is free).
Although, I wanted to gather information how to do this with the setup
already in place, not requiring additional servers.

If rsync is available, rsnapshot comes to mind: incremental backups with
rsync using hardlinks. However, stock rsnapshot backups only to local
diskspace.
