Newer GPLed Software

This page holds some of the newer GPL software which I have written.

This is a standalone PHP script which, when run from the command line, will back up an entire installation of Drupal. It runs mysqldump on the database to a file in DOCUMENT_ROOT, then backs up the entire website, including the database dump.

For security reasons, both the database backup and main backup have a random number appended to them, to keep an attacker from successfully guessing the filename of a backup.

This utility was released as a "hold over" until I release the backup module for Drupal 5.
