Cpanel Cron Backup To Ftp
Im setting up new windows server, packed with only FTP server (FileZilla) to remote backups.
How can i get my cpanel account make backups and upload them to my FTP server as an cron job? Offcourse i have option to backup via cpanel, but this is needed to do manually every time (setting remote ftp ip, account, passwd etc,).
Is there a option in cpanel / whm to do full-backup all my accounts in my reseller account? Or do i need to do it per account? Some of my servers is only reseller accounts without root access, only reseller account.

How Can I Backup CPanel With Cron
I just went through a week of nightmares, because my host lost hard drives and stuff.. lost my data, etc.. what ever.. I want to work out how I can cron cPanel backups. I did a search online for a cPanel backup manager, but I didn't have much luck. Or, maybe there's some other way to get regular backups? I don't really need to backup my whole sites. I keep my files locally, but of course I don't have the databases locally -- or the email records. All I "really" need is the database SQL files, so that I can rebuild my forums if need be, and also the email setup files -- because I have over 50 domains and I have emails set up on all of them. I want to have them emailed to myself. There's an option in cPanel too, which allows me to "generate/download a full backup".. well, how do I "restore" the backup? ie: I know how to backup and restore the home directory, databases and email stuff (there's 3 options in cPanel), but there doesn't seem to be anywhere to restore the full backup. Anyway, can anyone give me advice on how to keep backups of my cPanel accounts? I don't trust hosts anymore. They say they back stuff up, but they never to.

Mass Backup Accounts To Remote FTP With ROOT Access And CPanel/WH
I have a VPS and about 140 accounts on it. I've also got cPanel and WHM installed. I'm moving to a new host, but the thought of having to move all these accounts manually really makes me lazy I have to go into each account and go to backup -> backup to remote FTP, and yeah.. Is there any way I can mass backup all of my accounts, or all accounts I select, to a specified FTP server? I only have root access on my VPS, but not on the server I'm moving all the backups to..

Backup MySQL Databases By Cron
how to backup MySQL databases by cron and have the backups sent to you by email, or have them uploaded by FTP. It is based on a script I found at another website though I can confirm it is fully working. Change the commented variables in the following file and save it as backup.sh: Code: #!/bin/sh # This script will backup one or more mySQL databases # and then optionally email them and/or FTP them # This script will create a different backup file for each database by day of the week # i.e. 1-dbname1.sql.gz for database=dbname1 on Monday (day=1) # This is a trick so that you never have more than 7 days worth of backups on your FTP server. # as the weeks rotate, the files from the same day of the prev week are overwritten. #/bin/sh /home/user/directory/scriptname.sh > /dev/null ############################################################ #===> site-specific variables - customize for your site # List all of the MySQL databases that you want to backup in here, # each seperated by a space # If not run by root, only one db per script instance databases="mydbname" # Directory where you want the backup files to be placed backupdir=/home/mydomain/backups # MySQL dump command, use the full path name here mysqldumpcmd=/usr/bin/mysqldump # MySQL Username and password userpassword=" --user=myuser --password=mypasswd" # MySQL dump options dumpoptions=" --quick --add-drop-table --add-locks --extended-insert --lock-tables" # Unix Commands gzip=/bin/gzip uuencode=/usr/bin/uuencode mail=/bin/mail # Send Backup?

A directory which is not web-accessible will stop your login information being seen by just anyone . You should chmod the file to 777: Code: chmod 777 backup.sh If you uploaded this file from a Windows machine you will need to convert the file to Unix format. You should run the following command by SSH in the appropriate directory: Code: dos2unix backup.sh If you don't have dos2unix installed, you can install it using yum if you have that: Code: yum install dos2unix If you don't have yum, get it here. You may want to test the script at this point to make sure it's doing what you want it to. Change to the appropriate directory and run this command: Code: ./backup.sh Once you're happy with it, enter it into the crontab to run daily (or whenever you want). Cron jobs vary a lot depending on the configuration of your system, so check Google for how to do it on your system. The command you will need to run by cron is: Code: /path/to/file/backup.sh

Simultaneous FTP User- Cpanel/WHM/Pure-FTP, Dual Xeon 2.4, 1gRAM, Dedicated
Simultaneous FTP User Question - Cpanel/WHM/Pure-FTP, Dual Xeon 2.4, 1gRAM, Dedicated Does the following dedicated server spec throw any flags for you when considering our intended future use? DEDICATED SERVER SPEC Dual Xeon 2.40 ghz. 1 gig RAM INTENDED FUTURE USE - We currently host 300 low volume websites on the server. - We only use 40 gigs of data bandwidth per month. (1000 allotted) - We developed a new software product that allows auto-updates 300kb of data each day. - We expect up to 500 people to use this software and need to access our FTP daily, at different times of the day (random). - We plan to embed the FTP information into the software. The FTP access will be transparent to the user. Does our dedicated server sound like it could handle this? My guess is yes.

Cron Job That Deletes Backup Files Older Than 5 Days
This is on a RHEL 4 Box. I want to create a cron job that deletes backup files that are older than 5 days. I have created a shell script (/usr/local/src/runjob.sh) that runs successfully from the SSH command line: Code: #pwd /usr/local/src #./runjob.sh Here is the script: Code: #!/bin/sh # # find /usr/local/apache/sites/*/BACKUPS/ -maxdepth 1 -atime +5 -iname 'test*.txt' -exec rm {} ; Script has 777 permissions and is owned by root. I have the following entry in crontab: Code: 10 12 * * * /bin/sh /usr/local/src/runjob.sh >/dev/null 2>&1 As shown in the cron log, the job does run, but it does not delete the files. And there are files older than 5 days in the directory that meet the find criteria.

Backup To Remote Ftp
I'm thinking about buying a shared hosting plan with lots of space. Anyone do backups to remote ftp server instead of rsync? I was wondering if it was possible to configure ftp in such a way to only transfer files that are NOT present on the remote ftp. This way, it doesn't overwrite existing files and thus save on bandwidth. Is it possible to transfer an entire folder with a ftp command, I know the mput command is for uploading multiple files to another location. Lastly, what are the advantages of rsync over ftp besides saving banddwidth and trannsferring only files that were changed?

Using CRON To Restore CPanel Backups Daily
A couple weeks ago, I encountered a big server crash on my VPS that caused me a lot of downtime. I'm currently trying to figure out a solution to keep a current "clone" of all of my server accounts on a second server. That way, if I ever encounter another crash, I'll be able to simply change DNS information to have all accounts "live" using the backup server. I appreciate any input, advice, suggestions, criticism, etc. Here's what I have in mind... 1. I currently have all of my websites hosted on Server #1. (We'll call it that for the sake of avoiding confusion.) 2. I have an automatic nightly backup setup via cPanel / WHM that backs up all accounts from Server #1 to Server #2 via FTP. (Server #2 is in a totally different data center, with a different provider.) 3. The nightly backup packages all of the accounts as "cPanel Full Backups." So, they're compressed, and as such, they don't work as "live, functioning websites" on Server #2. The only way to make them "live and functional" on Server #2 would be to use cPanel to "restore" the backups. 4. So, what I'd like to do is setup a CRON job that would automatically "Restore" the backups each morning on Server #2. That way, Server #2 would always have a functional version of all my accounts, that is less than a day old. Then, if Server #1 ever crashed, I'd just have to change DNS information to point to Server #2, and all of the websites would be live again, without having to physically restore all of the backups using cPanel. I don't know a ton about CRON. However, as I understand it, CRON couldn't actually make cPanel restore the backups. However, I'm assuming that when you use cPanel's "Restore" function, it just goes through a series of processes. So, it seems logical to me that, if you knew what those processes were, you could write a CRON job to automate the process every morning. Did that make sense? If so, is it possible? Do you guys have any input, criticism, etc? If it's doable, can you make any suggestions that would help me make this happen? Finally, if you think you have the expertise to make this happen, I'd be interested in chatting with you via Private Message. I'd be willing to pay to have this done.(Note to Moderators: I'm not sure if my last comment is allowed or not ... if not, please feel free to remove it. I'm far more interested in the discussion of this process than trying to solicit help in making it happen.)

Rsync Backup To NAS Via FTP
I just signed up with Rsync Palace for remote backups 2 days ago. Otto and Darin at Rsync Palace gladly helped me out and actually ended up setting me up for free. It's really an inexpensive price to pay for a little additional piece of mind to have a remote backup. I have a VPS with cPanel that has NAS on a private network. The way they set it up was for Cpanel cron job to create backups of my VPS and place the backups in a /backup folder off root; Daily, Weekly and Monthly. Then they have Rsync via cron set up to take those backups to the remote Rsync Palace server daily. I still want to maintain backups on my NAS in the datacenter. (cPanel will only backup remotely or locally, but not both.) In addition to Rsync securely transferring my data to Rsync Palace for offsite backups... How can I set up Rsync to ftp the same /backup data across the private network to the NAS? (Only ftp is available via the NAS.)

Host That Allows MySQL Backup/restore Via FTP
I need to get the h3ll away from Godaddy, fast! However, my site has a large MySQL database (200 megabytes) and it's impossible to backup or restore via phpMyadmin. Godaddy has a feature on their control panel, where you can restore/backup your MySQL database to a special diretory on your web http file space, which you can upload/download vis FTP. I use this alot. Is there any other web hosting company that offers such a feature? I haven't seen this anywhere except on Godaddy. As to why I need to get away from Godaddy: Basically what they did was, my site was getting too much traffic (even though it's still well under Godaddy's advertised limits for that plan)... so they sent me an email that says: "Your site is using too much server resources. We have moved you to a new server to protect our other customers. Please identify steps to reduce your site traffic and contact us." They moved my site to what is, apparently, a punishment area (Godaddy Hell) where all the high volume sites go. It is so extremely slow, my site might as well not exist... it is inaccessible to my visitors for all intents and purposes.

Encrypted Backup From Windows To FTP/SFTP
Most of my background is the Linux/Mac world, but I do have ample Windows skill set, just not as refined or aware of all the available applications in Windows world, geared toward Joe User. My accountant needs to run two sets of backups. First, he wants to backup his documents to an offsite location (space on his web hosting service) and he wants them to be encrypted on the web hosting server, which is understandable and recommended. Short of installing TrueCrypt and using Filezilla with a manual process , is there any free or low-cost (but well supported) that would automatically upload revised documents and data files in encrypted form? This would not be very much data, just simple documents and accounting data files. Secondly, he wants to have a "snapshot" of his HD to a USB portable drive (standard 2.5 HD). On Linux, I'd recommend Rsync, on Mac, Rsync or SuperDuper (and others), but on Windows, any recommendations? I see Unison, etc. I would just want it to update any files that have changed to make subsequent backups run much faster, such as only 15-18 minutes (depending on amount of data changed) and make the drive bootable, so in the event he looses his HD in his laptop, he could boot from the USB portable drive and be back up and running. While I know I could easily figure out all this on a more manual basis, looking for things that would be friendly for Joe User to use and/or be something that can be setup and would run pretty much on it's own, assuming the backup drive was connected or system was on the Internet to upload the files, etc.

I've got a question though, a few websites which hosted in a shared server, they don't use cPanel. How can I move files from there to my server? My server is linux system. Sam told me use FTP software, I tried FlashFTP, logged in 2 servers, but can't transfer files, don't know what reason. Does anyone has a better idea to move all my website? I can ZIP them all. Just don't want to download and upload, can I move directly? In windows, we can use download software download directly by http links, can we do the same, how?

CPanel: How To Create Isolated SubDomain With It's Own FTP
OK here is the background of the problem. I wanted to host customers for one of my scripts on subdomains. So customer A will be on [url] customer B will be on [url], and so on and so forth..... As far as my knowledge goes, cPanel allows me to create an addon domain with it's own FTP account. But I need to create subdomains, each with their own FTP account. The subdomains should be isolated from each other, meaning customerA should not be able to access customerB's files (e.g. via PHP/perl script). I have a feeling that this is possible with some hacks/workarounds.

How To Edit FTP User Permissions On A CPanel Account
My Pink Floyd website has a photo section of rare concert pictures that our members upload. We have about 3,000 of these pictures, that our members upload via an FTP server that is hosted on a simple cPanel web hosting account. Someone logged into the account and not only deleted all the pictures, but uploaded obscene pictures and index.html files to some really nasty stuff. We delete all the obscene stuff, but before we re-upload all the pictures I need to know... On a cPanel account is there a way to have the FTP User only able to upload files and not edit/delete/change? Somehow we can edit their permission? I asked HostGator about this and the ChatTech said this cannot be done, and I was a bit surprised. I could easily do this on my own server, but i'm not sure where to start at the user level.

FTP Password Incorrect - CPanel Login Fine

I've tried restarting the FTP server and syncing the ftp passwords using WHM -> cPanel -> Synchronize FTP Passwords but still no luck. I've tried changing the account password but I can still login to cPanel with the new password but not ftp. I try connect to the ftp server via the IP address and domain (ftp.domain.com) but again, no luck.

Cpanel Not Working... Need To Backup
As a background: They had uptime problems, which have since been resolved, however now they seem to have let their cpanel license lapse. Neither I, nor my clients (nor anyone else on the server, according to their forums), can log into CPanel or WHM, getting the error "Cannot read license file." In the beginning they kept saying it would be fixed in 24 hours. 3 weeks later, still waiting. At any rate, our biggest issue right now is that cpanel has not been working since the first week in July. I make weekly full backups, sent via ftp to a remote server, of all my client sites with a cronjob. Since cpanel has been offline, I haven't had a backup since July 1. I'm doing a straight FTP of all the sites' data individually to my hard drive as I'm not sure what else to do to back up their stuff. I guess my question is: If I have to resort to finding a new host (which, if this doesn't get resolved soon, I'll have to), will these straight FTP backups be enough to restore the sites, including mysql data, email accounts, cgi sections, .htaccess/.htpasswd files, etc? What about WHM data for my reseller account? My assumption is that this will be a lot more work, but hoping it's not my only option.

Custom Cpanel Backup
I have a server that has Cpanel doing nightly backups using the built in auto backup tool in WHM. However, I have one account on the server with a 7 GB database. Everytime this database was dumped to the backup it would lock the database from users accessing it for about 30 minutes. So instead, I'm now using a slave/master replication setup to do the database backup incrementally and have excluded this account from being backed up every night. However, I would still like to be able to back up the account itself. Is there a way to setup a unique cron task to backup just this one account and skip the mysql database export? Does cpbackup do anything more than just zipping up the account's folder in the home directory? Or are there other files it needs to keep in order to do a restore?

I have the following setting turned on: Backup SQL Databases : "Per Account and Entire MySQL Directory" Will I get a full backup if I just do "Per Account" or am I missing something if I set it that way? I have some extra space on The Planet's NAS backup at /mnt/backup but not enough for the full backup. If I could split the backup in two that could work as well.

Cpanel Weekly Backup
Cpanel weekly and monthly backups are not exactly an state of the art scripts. Daily backups would be just ok, on the low range of quality, but ok. However when talking about the monthly or weekly copies the rsync process raises so much the load on the server that it is just a waste of time and resources. I do not want to sacrify any of both backups. However I would like to know if anybody has found an alternate script to manage cPanel backups and substitute cPanel's build in script. Even better, something that does incremental over the month start and we can have daily for all days of the month, not just last friday or last month.

Cpanel Backup Alternative
to backup a site from another hosting company who has disabled the cpanel backup button. I emailed them and ask them to enable it , they said it will take up a lot of processor utilization ... even for 1 cpanel account. AND... if I really need the cpanel backup, I have to pay $30 USD per backup! That's really strange. Never mind that, I was thinking any other way I can do this? I dont have SSH , no putty, just FTP, which I am a bit skeptical when it comes to downloading large qty of files. Any php backup script which I can use to trigger the cpanel backup or just do a zip file with the whole home directory
