What backup from Debian linux servers

Post What backup from Debian linux servers 
Hi!

My question:

What backup need from Debian linux servers?

I know these at all servers:
/boot/grub
/etc
/home
/root
/usr/src, usr/local/bin, usr/local/sbin
/var/www, var/lib, var/log
mysql databases
dpkg --getselections | grep install > install.txt

Firewall server
- iptables rules

Mail server (Imap)
- /var/mail

Other files, directory?

Thanks

I would also run fdisk -l (I think that's the option to list the partitions.
I'm going from the top of my head.)

Also, unless you're forced to, I'd just backup '/' and exclude total garbage
(e.g. /tmp). It's much easier than trying to make sure you have everything.
