Howto Backup a Linux server to Amazon S3

I recently joined Amazon’s S3 simple file storage service to use for my server backups.
I’m very happy with it.
To get the backups running on a Debain Server I had to do the following:
- Install Duplicity – apt-get install duplicity
- generate a GPG key (gpg –gen-key)
- create a little backup script – following these steps.
- set up a cron job for automatic backups
Great site that explains how to do it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto
