I'm a big fan of Amanda, which uses tar or dump to backup as many remote
machines as you want to a central backup server. I'm currently using it to
backup a FreeBSD server, two Linux workstations, a Windows2000 desktop, and
an OpenBSD machine 3 states away. Oh, and it's free, and you can do
bare-metal recovery from its backup tapes using a boot floppy and tar or
restore as appropriate.
