Here is what I do (if it helps): - Nightly I use a cron and fsync to copy the Data.fs over another drive in a folder per day (there is a script on Zope.org) (last seven days of Data.fs) - Weekly I tar up the entire zope installation /usr/local/zope/ and put it on a back up disk dated (zope_20031009.tar.gz) unlimited. - Weekly I back up to tape and rotate that tape offsite monthly This is all running on a RAID array. In the end of the day, back up a ton... you will NEVER regret having too much back up. I used to use the fsync trick to do an hourly backup as well of Data.fs.

How to do to pass login and password in zope-pack script
If it's backup you want, I'd just copy Data.fs as part of a cron job running on the server...
...taking care to use fsync at the right places to avoid data loss if your machine crashes half way through the copy.
