We are about to do a hardware refresh on our Macs. Before I go
re-inventing the wheel - does anybody have a script or anything that the
deployment technicians can use to backup / restore the user's data
either to an external drive or a server share?

As a side note, this may be a feature that casper can implement?
Automated backup to specified server shares or something. I know some
other deployment tools offer this functionality, but I haven't seen
anything in casper that can.

Not my scripts, but Rusty Myers has done a clever job of backing up user data, figuring out if they are network or local accounts (and backing up dslocal info as necessary).

These could be adapted for Casper Imaging. I am looking at doing this for our migration to Casper.

Cheers,
