backups


May I suggest:

Sunday 2 am (the Internet isn't too busy then) back up your entire
system and save it to the Sunday directory, overwriting last Sunday's
backup.
Monday 2 am back up your entire system and save it to the daily
directory, overwriting Saturday's backup.
Tuesday 2 am back up your entire system and save it to the daily
directory, overwriting Monday's backup.
Wednesday 2 am back up your entire system and save it to the daily
directory, overwriting Tuesday's backup.
Thursday 2 am back up your entire system and save it to the daily
directory, overwriting Wednesday's backup.
Friday 2 am back up your entire system and save it to the daily
directory, overwriting Thursday's backup.
Saturday 2 am back up your entire system and save it to the daily
directory, overwriting Friday's backup.

Wow, that is exactly what that script does ... see, maybe you stole the
idea from me ... thinking it only did 1 full backup, even though on
Sunday, it says "FULL BACKUP" ...

Things that make you go hmmmm..
