Quest8ion about what backup util to use.

I have a dirt simple backup scheme. I have a list of directories that I 
back up and they all get copied to a disk that was put in just for that 
purpose. I used to use something called flexbackup, but it occasionally 
had problems and it hasn't been supported in years.

I'd like to give it a conf file and have a full backup run of those dirs 
once a month and then have incrementals done on a daily basis. The 
resulting files should be somehow compressed and easy to access when 
needed.

(I go on the presumption that you only need your backup if you don't make 
it.)

Is there a favored util that will do what I want?

TIA
