[Zero Ziat 0]

Well, I want basically a cron job that will run and backup my MySQL database. I've been told in the shoutbox that you can do it via cron job.Didn't told me how.Now, I just want help on how to do it and what commands I should put in the cPanel.

well in cronjobs in cpanel you can select when to run the cron but you also need to write a cron script that will tell the cron what to do. once youve done that everything should run. maby try running a google on your question an answer should come up.

or you can make daily or weekley back-ups by hand by going into Back-up under Site Management Tools, and download the back-ups for your MySql Databases, as well as for all of your files.
