Backing up to remote server

Does anyone know an application that you can configure to run say... weekly that will backup selected folders / applications (such as my calendar) to a remote server? Everything I have found just backs up to another folder and then it would be up to me to copy that to a remote server.....

If the application was freeware that would be great to

If you're comfortable with command line stuff, the tool rsync is amazing, and it's trivial to schedule it to run with cron. There's a tutorial here, and a GUI for it here (rsyncX).

You can easily tunnel this over ssh to a remote server.
