duplicity backs directories by producing encrypted tar-format volumes and uploading them to a remote or local file server. Because duplicity uses librsync, the incremental archives are space efficient and only record the parts of files that have changed since the last backup. Because duplicity uses GnuPG to encrypt and/or sign these archives, they will be safe from spying and/or modification by the server.

Duplicity can be installed in Debian / Ubuntu as simple as: 

 $ sudo aptitude install duplicity

But it not in the CentOS / RedHat default repositories, so you need to install from another source. This script will help in this installation process: 

#!/bin/bash

wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/duplicity-0.6.18-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/ncftp-3.2.4-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/librsync-0.9.7-15.el6.x86_64.rpm
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/python-GnuPGInterface-0.3.2-6.el6.noarch.rpm
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/python-boto-2.5.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm

rpm -Uvh duplicity-0.6.18-1.el6.x86_64.rpm ncftp-3.2.4-1.el6.x86_64.rpm librsync-0.9.7-15.el6.x86_64.rpm python-GnuPGInterface-0.3.2-6.el6.noarch.rpm python-boto-2.5.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm

Problems deleting old backups

You have configured Duplicity to make a full backups every 7 days, and deleting backups older than 14 days to save space. What happen if you see a message like this? 

 Tue May  1 00:00:00 2012
 Wed May  2 00:00:00 2012
 Which can't be deleted because newer sets depend on them

Duplicity uses rsync, which contains incremental changes. Those files won't be deleted because, even though the backup maybe older than 7 days, there are backups which are incrementals and younger than 7 days.

So, after 2 weeks have passed, those files will be deleted, since the full backup and the incremental backups are now 14 days old, and there exists a full backup newer than the full and incremental backups.
