You could either use a backup script such as Rsync to get this done. Or if you want to write your own bash script, you could do this by setting a cron to automatically tar up the vbulletin database and place it to a standard http location, and to also rm -f the old backup file. Then on the other server where you are storing the tar file you can setup a 4 hour wget cron to download the file. This would be the bare bones most simple way to achieve this.
