I probably didn't  get the point, but what about a simple "tar"?

unless you're thinking on incremental back up, and more sophisticated things.

Well, I want to start off making a small script. Maybe get a little more complicated later on. I do want to do incremental backups, at least at first. I may later on use tar and something to keep say two copies and then delete the older ones. Just trying to get my feet wet here. Trying to be simple at first and go from there. If I try to cram to much in my head at one time, I get brain lock.

Thanks.
