View source for Zimbra FOSS User Backup

The following script is a modified version of one that can found on the Zimbra Forum here by LHammonds - http://www.zimbra.com/forums/installation/53227-my-notes-installing-zimbra-7-1-3-ubuntu-server-10-04-3-lts-2.html#post230528. The post in general is effectively a start to finish account of getting Zimbra FOSS up and running in an enterprise environment.  Its well worth browsing through the whole chain, it covers everything!

My script is still a work in progress, but so far I've made the following modifications
* Added ability to FTP backup's off to remote server
** Requires [http://lftp.yar.ru/ <code>lftp</code>], install with <code>apt-get lftp</code>
* Added logging output to end of script email

The script performs an '''online''' backup of all user accounts, which you can perform daily (or even more frequently), and maybe perform a [[Zimbra_FOSS_Full_Backup|full offline backup]] weekly or monthly.
