4 # Backup up Unix-like computers

9 # servers almost every day, whenever not broken.
11 # It's a bit peculiar, but quite effective. The following is worth keeping in
14 # Because of the way we run this script from cron, informational logging goes
15 # to stderr and warnings and errors to stdout. This way, we get mail whenever
16 # stuff fails, and other output is redirected to the log file.

19 # in English, we should probably stick to that.
