This little 3.5k shell script does daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly backups, compresses them all, and keeps any amount of 'snapshots' you want, and offers automated redundancy with rsync and ncftpput.

ha ha ha.. why? Cause I know perl and do a LOT of little scripts with it so it's just second nature to me... I know very little about what's already available on most servers/OSs.. and I'm not great writing cross-OS shell scripts.
Couldn't find backer.sh on one of my FreeBSD and Linux servers.
