Here's what I do:

Mount the w2000 file share to back up:
fresno# df -h
Filesystem                     Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad4s1a                    3.3G     57M    3.0G     2%    /
devfs                          1.0K    1.0K      0B   100%    /dev
/dev/ad4s4d                     64G    6.6G     53G    11%    /usr
/dev/ad4s3d                    2.4G     20M    2.1G     1%    /var
//MUSSOADMIN at SERVER/COMPANY     11G    6.4G    4.7G    58%    /w2000


Then write a cron job:

# Adjust the time zone if the CMOS clock keeps local time, as opposed to
# UTC time.  See adjkerntz(8) for details.
1,31    0-5     *       *       *       root    adjkerntz -a
0       22      *       *       *       root    cp -R /w2000/ 
/usr/backup/w2000/
45      3       *       *       *       root    tar -cyvf 
/usr/backup/w2000.tar.bz2 /usr/backup/w2000
30      5       *       *       1       root    mv 
/usr/backup/w2000.tar.bz2 /usr/daily/Mon/
30      5       *       *       2       root    mv

30      5       *       *       4       root    mv
