After having deleted a complete database when I thought I was removing
just one table, I thought it really was high time I implemented a
decent MySQL backup script on my remote servers.
I googled around a fair bit and found a bewildering array of pretty
*complex* looking scripts that I'm struggling to compare. Some weird
ones out there - like a CRON verison that only works by *emailing* the
file. A 300Mb e-mail would bring my NZ "broadband" to its knees ;-)
I need to be able to set up and run *fairly simple* backups on my
clients' sites. Either CRON or manual. I don't have access to EXEC
functions on most of these sites - just the usual cPanel thing.
Anyone know of a decent backup script?
TIA
Adam.
