If I understand you correctly, the backup is only new data, not overwriting 
old to get the current information is that correct?  And it is cron in 
conjunction with rsync that does this?

That would work well for me.  What do I ask for to get the help I need.  Since 
I don't know anything about either cron or rsync, I don't know how to word the 
question.  While waiting for an answer I will google cron and rsync to see if 
I can get an answer I can understand.  Thanks!
