I'd be happy to implement either email notification (hmm probably via a mapi client) or a website - but someone has to show me how to do it. Figuring it out on my own won't be timely at the moment.

Depends on your operating system. Linux easily comes with both. Web servers can be installed under Windows with one of the WAMP projects available. Email would be another thing.

It would be great if there were:
a) a script for backing up game files
b) email notification

I did both for my games. Backing up game files was more or less done like this (which I used on local games before):
Code:

---

function archive {

  if test $# -lt 1; then return; fi

  tar czvf $(basename $1)-$(date +%s).tgz $@

}

For email, I used something called nbsmtp because I didn't trust local sendmail installations, which would have been even easier to use.

P.S.: For Windows, try one of these links:
