I have several Bash and Perl scripts for backing up remote machines (two Drupal web sites and one CVS server): 1. Perl scripts on the remote machines that create archives using tar. 2. Matching Bash scripts on my local machine that invoke the #1 scripts using ssh. 3. Matching Perl scripts on my local machine that copy the tarballs created by the #2 scripts from the remote machines to my local machine using rsync. 4. A top-level Bash script that calls the #2 and #3 scripts in order for each remote machine. See man tar, man ssh, man rsync, and perldoc -f system.
