shell scripting help with backup script

Expand Post »

Hello,

I'm new to shell scripting, but really like it's potential.

I just recently installed a local server and would like to write a script that I can chose which colo server I want to and download the latest version of that website via rsync.

Here are my directives:

#1 - Specify Machine
#2 - Get ls -l in Remote Web Directory
#3 - Select Directory to backup
#4 - rsync directory from remote host to local box
#5 - Complete

I'm having a problem with #2.

Any suggestions?
