Here is something that may or may not help you...
I use this file to make daily back-ups of my .pass and .db file. I run it on my windows machine (I have ActivePerl installed) every morning. This will FTP out to your web server where you have dbman installed and grab the password and db files and download them to your C: drive as a backup.
Code:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI::Carp 'fatalsToBrowser';
use CGI qw/:standard/;
use Net::FTP;
my $ftp = Net::FTP->new("yourDomain.com", Debug => 1)
or die "Cannot connect to some.host.name: $@";
$ftp->login("yourUserName",'yourPassWord')
or die "Cannot login ", $ftp->message;
$ftp->pwd();
$ftp->cwd("cgibin/dbman");
$ftp->get("default.db");
$ftp->get("default.pass");
$ftp->quit;
print "files downloaded, OK";
sleep(2);
I have the files placed in my C:\Perl\bin\ directory and run it by clicking on a desktop icon.
