best way to make incremental back-ups?

Hi!

What's the best way to make incremental back-ups?

Is there a tool (GUI or otherwise, open source perhaps) for this?

Red Hat Linux 7.2.  PostgreSQL 7.1

thanks,

Mel

Sorry, we will have point-in-time recovery in 7.4.  Right now, the only
solution is a async replication using something like /contrib/dbmirror
or /contrib/rserv.

This may be really dumb, but would it be possible to do something
with pg_dump and diff ?

Especially if you use those special flags to pg_dump which tell it
to dump out just the table definitions or just the data....
