Backing up DTS and SQL jobs....

I know If I store the DTS packages in SQL Server it will be stored in the
msdb database.
Also all the job scheduling information is stored in the msdb database.
Even though I am taking backup of system databases, I would like to know if
is there any way I can export all the DTS packages and jobs in any different
way. This is only an additional extra precaution incase If I am not able to
restore the system database in the event of disaster.
I am able to open the DTS packages individually and store as .dts file. It
is a time consuming process.
I am using SQL 2K.
Thanks,
J SmithFor DTS backup, I use a neat little program called, "DTS Backup 2000." It's
freeware.
