/*
 *
 * This script will backup your web site by remotely archiving all files on the root FTP directory.
 * It will work even if your web server is memory limited buy splitting zips in several arhive files it they are too many files.
 * All zip files will be stored in a directory called temporary which must be writable.
 *
 * How to use it:
 * - Place the script at the root of your FTP.
 * - Call http://yoursite.com/zip.php
 * - In your FTP client go to temporary folder and download all backup_xxxxxx_x.zip files locally
 * - Unzip everything with this command: for i in *.zip; do unzip $i; done;
 * - Finally to avoid security issues, remove the script from the FTP.
