I've never done what you are saaying, but if I would have to, I would then
create a file with an exec() (in case there's nothing like that within PHP
build-in functions) and would run it from cron automatically.

Subject: [PHP] (g)Zip archiving of local files?


Hi All,

I've seen a couple of references to archiving files using exec() and tar or
zip. I am wondering, however, if this is the best/only way to do this. Is
this an inherently threaded process, so multiple simultaneous requests won't
seriously compromise server performance? What other gotchas should I be
aware of?

I'm sure that others have researched automatic archiving of files on
servers, and I'd really appreciate hearing about your experiences.

Thanks,

michael geary
