Backup files to ftp server


Hey,

Im pretty new to linux and is looking for an easy way to synchronize folders from my locale fedora to my storage at servage.net via ftp - and have it done every night.

As far as i can read rsync is suited for the backup part, but not for doing the ftp to my remote storage.

Does anyone have a suggestion to how this can be done?

Best regards
Kristian

There's a short tutorial for doing something like this at http://www.quepublishing.com/article...?p=170517&rl=1. Once you have the ftp working, you can add it to cron and have it run automatically.
