Automate backup

[szimnau]

I was wondering if someone could reccomend a good way to backup my website? The Cpanel backup works fine, and I have done that once, but I was wondering if there's a way to automate a backup nightly/weekly with Cron or something?

Ideally, here's what I'd like to happen:

Set a time to backup

Backup EVERYTHING including MySql databases + subdomain settings

GZIP all files

Transfer backup to my host FTP server

Locally rotate backups (delete old one, replace with new backup)

hope that someone can help.
Regards

Rolf

You can set this up on the System Backup page in the admin level to backup the entire server or through the Manage User Backups page in the reseller level to only make bakups of user accounts. Both can be set by cron for automation.

If you asking this for cpanel, I have no clue, wrong forums,
