2nd the recommendation for rsnapshot. Simple solution to many problems

I asked a similar question about a year ago on this mailing list.
Strangely enough, I ended up using a tool nobody mentioned explicitly in
response to my e-mail. It is called unison

I know you want to write your own script, but take a look at rsnapshot
[1]. I've been using it for a while to backup my systems at home and
it's been delightful. Just a small program based on rsync that handles
backups in a nice simple, more space efficient, and automated way.

rsync is great, and there's a few utils that uses it such as rdiff-backup.
On the other hand, if the number of machines you're backing up and
restoring is a bit larger, I've developed a fondness for bacula myself.
Not directly relevant to
How about looking at rsync
Thats what we use and it will list out changes.
I used to cron it each night and have it email
the output...

I use restore -t on the dump just created to get the listing of
backed up files.
I'm not sure just what your question is though - what you want
seems clear enough, you just need to write the script now.
