34 <PRE>This kind of thing is best left upto shell scripts. I'd highly recommend
35 using rsync over FTP for two reasons:
37 1. It's secure. All file transfers are performed over ssh by default.
39 2. It uses a differential algorithm so as to only transfer the incremental
40 differences between files across the network, hence saving *alot* of
41 bandwidth and making the backup procedure very quick.

50 </I>><i> An Idea... any chance of some sort of built in log/database backup
51 </I>><i> function -- something that makes a daily automatic backup copy of the
52 </I>><i> databases and that day's log (dated), and stuffs it into a designated
53 </I>><i> location (like some other backup dir) or even better, can auto-FTP send it
54 </I>><i> to another machine? I know this is something above and beyond the call of
55 </I>><i> duty for Services, but it would sure make catastrophic failures of the
56 </I>><i> primary machine more bearable...
58 </I>><i> Just a thought... meanwhile, anyone know of a linux utility that can be bent
59 </I>><i> into an automatic FTP send of files to a remote FTP server? Maybe via a
60 </I>><i> script? Thanks
