Thumbs up Server Synchronization

I am new on UNIX system. I am administrating a server belongs to a small department. It has Debian installed, and used as mail, web server. I am trying to synchronize to a different machine which has Fedora installed. Can anybody tell me how to copy exact image of one server to a different for backing up server.

What exactly you need to backup ? The system binaries or home folders ? Check the web for rsync.

Server Synchronization

I guess I am using a wrong word. My goal is having two servers (A and B) running where second (B) works as back up in case first (A) is down. I want to have exact setting/configuration and everything on B so if A goes down B functions as A. I was considering mirroring butt I though there might be better way of doing it. ..........I know it is stupid.
