Upgrading from Sarge to Etch



1. How can I backup my Debian 3.1 server before upgrading to 4.0?
 
# cat /etc/debian_version
3.1
 
# uname
2.6.8-2-386 #1 Tue Aug 16 12:46:35 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
 
 
----------------------------
2. How can I upgrade a server Sarge in productiopn to Etch? I do not have a graphic environment. Really important is just samba, iptables and  squid.

----------------------------
3. Every night, the server tries to upgrades itself by:
00 04 * * * root apt-get update && apt-get -y upgrade && apt-get -y dist-upgrade
 
But I receive the following error messagem:
 
Teh following packages are going to kept:
  file libkrb53 libmagic1
0 packages updated, 0 packages instaled, 0 to be removed and 3 not updated.
 
The three packages are importante, once the server is not yet upgraded to version 4?
 
 
Thanks,
 
Valdir
