Sorry to all who download the old v0.3 file, I forgot to uncomment one of the lines that actually &amp;quot;deleted&amp;quot; the old files. The fixed version is now available on the server.

... its a great script for backups to a remote server (per ftp, ssh) or local. Its working now for about half year without any problems. Great work.
