This is the main script to start a backup. The script *backup.sh* is the one to add as a cronjob. It will start
* the dumps of local databases
* the file transfer to an external repository
Both of these steps can be started seperately (see next pages).
## Typical Usage
* on Linux: as a non root user use sudo `sudo ./backup.sh`
* on MS Windows: start it as user `./backup.sh`. Or double click it in a file manager (e.g. Explorer). The first time it asks what program should be used to open *.sh files - select the bash.exe ornavigate to it.
