How does this work?

How does this work?

Default you are using this Script for the OVH Backup FTP. But its nothing else like a FTP Server. You enter every Parameter and execute this Script with a Cronjob.
Here you can change the Folders to Backup

tar --preserve-permissions --preserve-order -j -c -f $ARCHIVE /etc /var /home /opt /usr/local/bin $DBDUMP \

Anyway, if you have problem with this Script. Search on Google for a FTP Backup Script or eg. OVH FTP Backup Script. There are some good one.
