Nice to be the boss. I gave my man Dougie my requirements and the skeleton for a script and he produced the rest. Download it if you want

It provides an automated mechanism (that can be scheduled via your task scheduler) for WSS Site Collection Backups (multiple sites, via CSV selection list)

Download the script here – NOTE: you use this at your own risk. I’m just being a nice guy here. https://brainlitter.com/wp-content/uploads/brainlitter/brainlitterarchive/sharepoint/Scripts/WSSbackup.zip

Simply copy the script to your server, fill out the few required variables and modify the CSV file to suit. CSV format is as following:

ClientName,PortalURL,friendlyname

E.g.

itgroove,https://portal.itgroove.net:443,itgroovePortal
