Does anybody know a clean PHP-based solution that can backup remote web sites using FTP?

Must haves:

  • Recursive FTP backups
  • Possible to run through a cron job
  • Easy to configure (easy adding of multiple sites)
  • Local storage of backup files is sufficient

Would be nice:

  • Backed up sites are stored as zip files
  • A nice interface to manage things
  • Provides notification when backup has succeeded or failed
  • Does incremental backups
  • Does MySQL Database backups

I need this to be PHP (or Perl) based because it's going to be used on shared hosting packages that do not allow usage of the standard GNU/Linux tools available.
