Let me suggest another idea:
Put a venti on the remote machine and push the tree to be backed
up with vac. Never think about maintaining incremental backups
anymore - just pull in the stuff, and venti will store equal
data blocks only once. All you now have to do is to put the
root score (printed out by vac) into some safe place.
You can even directly mount the backup via vacfs :)
