I posting this in case anyone is interested in using the inexpensive storage at Amazon S3 AWS to automatically backup their system. There is a new and better way to backup data by using s3fs to mount a S3 bucket to local directory and then use rsync to keep up to date with the files. The Howto is posted here: http://blog.eberly.org/2008/10/27/how-i-automated-my-backups-to-amazon-s3-using-rsync/ The older way to backup using s3sync is posted below. It contains vital information about creating and controlling the Amazon buckets so you may want to read it first. http://blog.eberly.org/2006/10/09/how-automate-your-backup-to-amazon-s3-using-s3sync/ Jay
