Take a look at the PostgreSQL web site - they have a section in the 
docs dedicated to this subject, detailing several different strategies.
I'm sure one of them will fit!

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/backup.html

(If you're running a diffrent version of PostgreSQL, check out the
relevant section of the docs - accessible from 
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/manuals/)
