Exactly.  In my message this was the desperate thing that I tried.  Notice
the info above that?

When I run the command:
zip asdf backup.1

I get the message:
      zip warning: name not matched: backup.1

zip error: Nothing to do! (asdf.zip)

So I did try running this in the format that you suggest (in my case "asdf"
is your "backupzipfilename").

Any other ideas?
