I have written a simple bourne shell script which performs all backup
functions, but no restore at this point. I personally find it's very
good and keeps each daily backup (gzipped) in it's own dated directory
under the parent directory being the current month. It's available at:
http://database.sourceforge.net
I am open to suggestions and if anyone would like to critique the code to
make it simpler or more powerful then by all means go ahead.
Thanks.
