March 28, 2005 - 7:38 CST    plbackitup-0.8.4.tar.gz - This script is written in Perl, and is used for backing up directories/files (in Linux) using TAR. It has several features including logging, email (the log), FTP and/or SCP the backup files. To use FTP you will need to download/install the netlib module from PERL CPAN. To SCP files download/install SSH from SSH.COM. It can be run as a cron job or manually. Instructions are in the main file. Usage is free. Read the Change log to see whats new. There is also now a FAQ file in the current version to help with some questions I have been getting ;-)

November 29, 2000 14:35 CDT     rotate (775) (right-click & save as...) - A little script a friend wrote to rotate log files. It will rotate a file to from "logname" to "logname.0" , "logname.1" etc.... Nice script to use for rotating large /var/log/messages logs. Keep a weeks worth then they drop out.
