Advice on a backup script, maybe one is out there already?
Hi,
Not sure whether this is the right place to post it. I decided to post it here 'coz Advanced and Expert users will most likely have the answer to what I am looking for.

Alright, I feel like I have a pretty good basic knowledge of shell scripting, but this one is throwing me for a loop. I know I've seen something similar done with awk, but I couldn't find it with the search function.
