Backup Module

I came up with this module because i am responsible for managing the technical aspects of my friend's online stores.

The idea is that these scripts can be used to be run as part of a cron job in order to do two things:
a) Make a backup of the database (compressed). This is done using "wget". (backup-web.sh)
b) Create a mirror copy of the website. This is done using "lftp" (backup-db.sh)

NB: See the individual scripts about setting the relevant environment variables.
