Automated linux file backup tut

Follow this tutorial I created to setup automatic backup scripts of directory(s) at your disposal using “cron job” tasks.  I devised this automated backup system after some data loss on a server computer that cost me hours of reconstructing to get a CSS game server back online.  The scripts (which i provide examples of the code) are perfect for automatically backing up your /cfg folder of CSS game servers every day, TeamSpeak servers, and what ever you can think of.  It uses SH scripts,tar commands (which automatically append date/time to it) and cron jobs via setup in webmin.
