   Umm ... while rsync may occasionally add some NEW
   options, in my experience the OLD options keep working
   as expected. Did for at least a decade+ fer-sure.

   It's all VERY easy to script in half a dozen langs.

   Rsync is a spectacular utility. Never under-rate it.
   It's the ffmpeg of backups, and even more stable.

   NEVER seen a near equiv in the Winders world. Why
   IS that ???

   For your server backups, DO leverage rsync.

   For user WinBoxes ... well ... there are some cheap-ish
   'mirror' utilities that work OK. Automate them as much
   as possible.

   MY place ... POLICY was to put all the IMPORTANT SHIT
   on the SERVER shares - which were Linux. LOCAL, no
   backup guarenteed. Save that for "temporary" stuff.
   Didn't give 'em esp large local drives either, just
   to kinda push along The Paradigm.
