I'm using rsync for this. My desktop is a rsync-server and my laptop 
tests hourely if it is available. If so, and the last backup is older 
than one day it rsync my hdd. On the server, I have a script that 
creates snapshots via hardlinks. (thanks to 
http://www.heinlein-support.de/web/projekte/rsync-backup/ :-) for 
inspiration) Tell me if you want to have my shell scripts  and more 
details.
