^^^^^^^^^

give redundant backups and you can run it as a cronjob, meaning that
you won't have to do it manually.

The initial setup is rather straight-forward.

What software do you suggest for doing this? That is what is foremost
on my mind at this stage.

hmmm, rsnapshot ??

Or got google restricted nowadays? ;-P

No, Google is working fine here. I can use it, and I am using it. I also
note the backup packages available through YaST. What I hoped for was
recommendations from people on this group, who have used this or that
software, and who might be prepared to favor me with their own experience
as a supplement to what I see on ever friendly Google.
