[Koha] backup the database

[Zeki Celikbas]

I've used the below cron script to backup koha's databases. This script 
run everynight and backup a sperate file for each day's database. 
Backup file named koha + year + mount + day, for example 
koha20021101, koha20021102, koha20021103 and so on. This script 
also send the backup file to another machine with ftp.

to run this script every day put it /etc/cron.d directory.
