Just did a backup of the whole system with rsync yesterday and again today. 
Backup server appears to work.
Will now put a cron script in place which will rsync the /home and /var/www 
directory trees daily onto the backup server

If you have anything in PostgreSQL or MySQL databases, make sure you create a 
cron script that dumps the databases into any of the /home subdirectories.
