I think you should look at rsnapshot. It's rsync based complete backup solution.

Addendum:
I seem to have been successful in copying files from one of the domains to
the other using the following:
rsync -auvn /path/to/source/directory /path/to/destination/directory

I can only assume everything new/changed was copied as I now need the mysql
database copied from one domain to the other. Is it possible to copy the
mysql database using rsync on the /mysql/mydomain to /mysql/myotherdomain or
do I have to do something different?

Hi all,

I'm new to rsync but I get the gist of what has to be done to create
backups from a server to a client. My particular need though is to copy
new/changed files and mysql database from one filesystem on a server to
another filesystem on the same server. Basically I have 7 domains on a
dedicated vps, all with exclusive ips. One domain is the master domain and
the files and database need to be transferred to the other domains on a
regular basis. Site mirroring on a single server. I was told rsync would
handle this but so far I haven't been able to figure out how. Any help
would be greatly appreciated as I'm already past deadline on this.

Thanks much!

Michael
