Re: Synchronet Linux Host Backup

I have a BBS being hosted on a Linux server that I have shell access too. Is there a way for me to make a backup myself and download or copy to my PC, or does the host need to do that for me?
Just use something like winscp and grab your sbbs directory. It might be better to archive and compress it first with tar and then download the compressed tarball.
Something like tar jcf sbbs.tar.bz2 /sbbs
Once it's finished you can download sbbs.tar.bz2
