[wplug] Backup tool?

[n schembr]

I use the rsync with the backup option. Old files are stored by date and hour.  

    #   $base_dir = "mail1.example.com:/"; #remote
        $base_dir = "/";  # local
            
        $rsync_dir = "/media/mail1";
        $old_dir =   "/media/mail1/backup/";

        $date= `date +%Y_%m_%d/%H`;
        chop $date;

        $exclude = "--exclude=media/ --exclude=vmware/  --exclude=backup/ --exclude=var/ --exclude=sys/ --exclude=proc/ --exclude mnt/ ";
        $cmd = "rsync   --delete --delete-after  -aHv $exclude --backup --backup-dir=$old_dir$date/ $base_dir $rsync_dir ";
