lazy man’s file backup

Put this script on your crontab:

#!/bin/sh 
/sbin/mount_smbfs //username@server/share /Volumes/share 
cd ${HOME}/Documents/ 
find . -mtime -1 -a \! -type d -exec cp -rp {} /Volumes/server/username/Documents/ \;

It mounts a server share that you know gets backed up, finds all your files that got touched today, and copies them to your directory on the share.

Set it and forget it.
