I am using the system backup to an FTP account and it seems to work. I have checked all the boxes under configuration, i.e. Backup httpd data, DNS, etc. Under the custom folders and files, there are already entires by default. If my server installation (RH9) is fairly standard, would this be all that I need to backup or are there entries I should add? Secondly, can someone explain the "Incremental file-by-file backup" option? I understand incremental normally means the files that have changed since a full backup, but it seems to mean something different here. "(Deletes local file before creating the next one)" is the explanation next to it and it has me confused. There is already an option to delete the local copy after transfer. Thanks.
