[Mediawiki-l] There are several ways to backup a MW site--what's best?

[Ken McDonald]

I'd like to put our MW site onto some sort of backup routine, and from 
looking at various sources, it seems there are at least three different 
alternatives, MySQL Backup, MySQL hot backup, and myPHP Admin. I'm 
leaning towards myPHPAdmin, just because it seems like it would be 
useful for many other things also, but would appreciate users' feedback 
on these and other backup methods.

I'm also assuming I need to backup the images/attachments directories 
separately. Aside from the database and files, is there anything else I 
need to backup?

Thanks,
Ken
