BTW, I don't see why samba or nfs are bad choices if you put the service
behind a firewall. They both provide much more flexibility if you want
more than just backups.
I'm using NFS (same scenario and purpose) and it perfectly does the job.

SSH had a possible remote root vuln this month, think about that too if
you are that paranoid.
