Dont toppost! and trim the replies. Take a look at http://wiki.centos.org/GettingHelp/ListInfo for some basic guidelines that we ask everyone to follow here on the lists.

Hi,

If you don't spent time with script you have backup-manager. I have a howto on it.

Backup manager can create backup of file svn mysql on the number of day you define and can also push those file to a another place over FTP,ssh. by default all archive are put on /var/archives.

Hello guyz!

I'm new here, and this is my very first truble...

I need a script that will backup & compress the folder /media/system in the folder /media/backups

But that's not the problem, I need that only the last 7 backups (last 7 days, yeah I know, cronjob...) will stay in that folder...

The script need: 1 - Compress folder /media/system 2 - Store in /media/backups 3 - Name the compressed backup like day_month_year.tar.gzip 4 - Check the other backups and delete backups older than 7 days..

Can some one help me?

Tanks! This is what I want! But there is just one problem, I don't need SSH, I just need a folder on the local machine that will have the 7 days backup, then I'll use rsync for on remote server, but this part I already have. How can I use this script whitout the SSH?
