Hello,
If you have a spare machine with the diskspace neeeded then you might
want to consider rsync over ssh. Rsync can do incremental backups, which
can be nice and timesaving.
There's plenty to read about it if you Google for "Freebsd backing up
rsync ssh ports".

As with what he said. :) Dump and Restore are your friends.
Also, in a crunch:
tar -z -c -f /path/to/your/backup.tar.gz /filesystem
Do that once for each mounted filesystem, and make sure backup.tar.gz
lives on another system, perhaps on an nfs mount.

and most likely:
man dump
