Need soft to make backup of forum and database

[platanero]

Hello, I own a personal forum and I make frecuent database backup (sql format) and forum backup with filezilla.

I wonder if there is a soft that automatically do both things automatically at a time I choose and compress the result in a zip file giving previously the passwords of cpanel.

It will help me a lot because I travel and I'm not at home computer very often.

Thanks.

Yes it is called a cron job.

Use it with a mysqldump & tar command then you can use ftp to send the outputs to a backup site or if your computer is on all the time schedule a task to download the 2 files daily.

you need cron job or sh script.
