I'm exploring the concept of using our aging campus mainframe to 
do network backups of the campus UNIX & PC boxes......
our thoughts are that we would solicit from the individual users
on each machine which directories were more valuable than others
and then we would custom taylor the program to do the work during
the wee hours of twilight via ftp.  Letting the users make the
choices seems the best way to aviod issues of privacy, where they
are given the opportunity to disclose the data they want kept 
up to date and the secret stuff would have to be their own responsibility!
