Hi all,

I am wondering what I can use as a scheduled backup here at my office.

I am using Ubuntu9.04 64bit. Something that will run at intervals.

Thanks

cron will run your backups whenever you like. See man cron for details.

Thanks for the reply.

From reading, I think that I have to together a script and put it in a certain cron folder.

Would my assumption be correct?

Also how do I write this script/file? what is the extension on this file?

Thanks

Heeter

Install webmin; using it for backup your files. It cam be programmed by specific repetitive intervals for run.
Interface easy to use.
