I use Amanda, and I'm faily impressed.  It's command line oriented, but
does everything needed.  It's tape management is good too -- you can
set it up to say "I've got this many tapes in a cycle, these are the
important file systems, do the best you can at a tape a day".

I uses the Red Hat RPMs, and I had to change a few device permissions
to get it to work correctly.
