[pmwiki-users] Backup

[Daniel Scheibler]

Hello Allyen,

I use the BackupPages Cookbook described in
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/BackupPages

Although a extended this script myself (see attachment) to send the
backup files to a email address. In this way I had a copy at a
different server.

Greets,

Daniel Scheibler
