Make your own Wayback Machine or Time Machine in GNU/Linux with rsnapshot
,----[ Quote ]
| A good backup system can help you recover from a lot of different kinds of
| situations: a botched upgrade (requiring re-installation), a hard drive
| crash, or even thumb-fingered users deleting the wrong file. In practice,
| though Iâve experienced all of these, itâs the last sort of problem that
| causes me the most pain. Sometimes you just wish you could go back a few days
| in time and grab that file. What you want is something like the Internet
| Archiveâs âWayback Machineâ, but for your own system. Hereâs how to set one
| up using the rsnapshot package (included in the Debian and Ubuntu
| distributions).

It can be achieved more simply with GUIs even.
