There's a command-line utility called owsadm.exe that
might have this capability. Try browsing
www.microsoft.com/search and searching for owsadm.exe.
You could also do such backups by FTP. Just be sure to
back up *all* the files.
The best practice, however, is to keep a perfect copy of
your production site locally, and then use local backup
procedures on that. Of course, this assumes you always
update your local copy and then publish.
Backing up only databases is a little trickier, because
you should always prohibit browsing to any folder that
contains an Access database. So, either back them up by
FTP, or set up some sort of password protected process
that transmits a copy of the database for backup.
