MySQL Administrator will back up your database remotely. Or you can use
phpMyAdmin installed on the server.

Another utility that I have found very useful is Navicat. It is a
desktop application that gives you local access to a mysql database on
a server. It provides much of what phpMyAdmin on the server does,
with a somewhat more developed interface. It also adds the
convenience of being a local application, though I have found
sometimes that there can be annoying waits for the server to respond.
It does cost.

In addition, I have seen php scripts that will automate backups of a
mysql database, though I don't have a link to any just now.

MySQL Administrator does all this too.

MySQL Administrator doesn't.

There is a very good shell script 'automysqlbackup.sh' that I use. It
gives daily, weekly and monthly rotating backups.
It can be found at http://sourceforge.net/projects/automysqlbackup/

I agree, I love this script. Ive modefied it to scp the backups to
another server as well. Cant be too careful. Btw if you are using a
debian server the cron setup is slightly different from the docs. Just
google Smile
