Realtime backup to remote site for Linux?

As the subject says, I'm looking for software that will run under Linux that will allow us to have realtime replication over a T1 line to our secondary site. Both systems are running as a Samba server as well, so the destination system needs to at least be readable. A lot of people seemed to like DRBD, which worked ok, but doesn't seem to be a good solution for a remote site as it replicates at the block level (145GB partitions here), and the destination site is not accessible while replicating. So, I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on something that will allow for realtime replication for 2 Fedora Core systems.

Thanks.
