[thelist] Backing up data on a unix server

[Kevin Sedgley]

Hello all,

I've dived into the world of running my own dedicated server. It is running
unix, fedora core 3.

Does anyone know of any easy to set up applications for backing up mysql
tables and certain directories? Ideally it would FTP the data to another
location, run as a daemon and run itself nightly.

I am not familiar with backing up data but am familiar with fundamental unix
commands and RPMs.

Thanks,

Kevin
