if I put in the #!/bin/sh, I just get the following:
bash: ./backup: No such file or directory
ugh. I don't get it. I've seen this problem when things have the
wrong style of quote before, but I don't see that as a problem
here... or is it?

I don't see anything wrong with this except we don't know what shell
it
is running in. I usually put #!/bin/bash as the first line.
yep just tested on my machine and killed it before I filled up my
drive
:) no errors
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bhughes]$ cat testscript
BACKUP_DIRECTORY=/home/bhughes/backup/tomii
SOURCE_DIRECTORY=/
cd $SOURCE_DIRECTORY
for i in * ; do tar -zcvf "$BACKUP_DIRECTORY/$i.tgz" $i ; done
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bhughes]$
