How do you define good: efficient, flashy, easy to use, flexible or 
multi-platform?  There are kbackup, afbackup, taper, amanda(network
backups), tob and the usual afio, cpio and tar.  Each have their pros
and cons. All are packaged for Debian. I personally wrote my own scripts
for use with afio and am happy.
