I use my ftp client to copy the entire pmwiki directory to my hard
drive, and the farm directories. Doesn't take long. (Assuming I can get
multi-threading working properly again; new computers are a pain). One
could argue that the 1MB of program needn't be copied, but it takes
longer to deselect them than to just take everything.
Does your administrator have a backup utility? Ours has one that will,
on our request, email a zip file of our entire account to an address of
our choice. (Let's hear it for large yahoo accounts!)
