Best Automatic Backup Method

[ChrisChris]

Hey everyone :hi:

I was just wondering if anyone knows the best way to automatically backup everything on my hosting account every x days/ hours etc. Preferably free :hehe:

Any suggestions are much appreciated

Thanks,
Chris (from Australia :blink: )

Check this out: http://krakjoe.info/mod/abmcpb/

Otherwise you could just do rsync on a cron. (you need another linux server/backup space with ssh).

Hey Camron,

Thanks for your reply! That program looks really good but it didnt seem to be working on my server as for the sync with the cron thing - ill be honest with you, you lost me at rsync :hehe:

Thanks again!
Chris

I am using cpanel's backup feature. It can ftp everything needed to restore with a few clicks.

I dont have Cpanel unfortunately my host has a custom one they call SiteAdmin
