[kwlug-disc] Backups and Hard Disks

[Chris Irwin]

I'm recovering from a hard disk failure in my laptop. Luckily I didn't
lose anything due to my constant use of `unison` to my server, but it
got me thinking: This is not nearly as automatic as I would like as it
relies on me to manually run unison.

Has anybody come up with a better solution? Mainly I'm talking about a
laptop that works disconnected fairly often, so you can't assume it
will be on 24/7 for a scheduled job at night.
