So I had my sites with a company that offered DA as the control panel. The company went defunct and I downsized and moved everything to shared hosting. I killed all of the accounts except for the main VPS admin account.
Even though the provider stopped offering DA hosting, the account and server IP remains active. I can reach the DA login page at IP:2222, but I get an error that the license is expired. I guess I wrongly assumed that the account would be deleted. However, here we are two years later and it's still running.
So here is the problem...
I had set up automated weekly Backups of my sites to go to a local FTP server which I have since disabled. So, I get a nice weekly reminder that my backup had failed for that domain. There is really no data there, but the weekly reminder over two years that a defunct account is still active is annoying. I've tried reaching out to support, but it seems they are no longer responsive.
I do still have access via SSH. Is there a way that I can log in and kill that automated backup? I imagine that it's a cron somewhere, but I can't seem to locate it. It doesn't help that I'm trying to do it from my phone.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
