i have been using the script at [1] but then i noticed that the 
incremental backups were quite large and containing some MYD and MYI 
files.  so i realized these were myisam databases.  i read that the best 
way to backup both innodb and myisam databases was to use the mysqldump 
option --lock-tables instead of --single-transaction, which is what the 
script[1] is using.

therefore, i was thinking i'd update the script to use --lock-tables, 
and also adjust my bacula settings so it is only backing up the output 
from mysqldump and the binlog directory.

so i just wanted to check in to see if that would cover everything?  or 
am i missing things?

Thanks
