It were a great feature if there does give a way (in near future ) to config in the admin-interface (Tools/Backup-Manager/Backup and also Admin/ISP-Da.../Backup...) a cron-job who would start automatic an ftp-backup every day/week/month... Is this possible ? At least the settings can be saved... Greets - TobiasTM (I hope my english was understandable - It´s just to late here)
I don't know if we will implement something like this, but for now you can have a look here: http://duplicity.nongnu.org/ http://www.heise.de/ct/06/13/links/216.shtml http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_rdiff_backup
Scheduled backup I too think that it will be a great option to offer the user/klients, that the backup options then can be turned on for an customers account will just be even better. I know that Plesk are doing it, and it's looks like this screenshot: Ofcause this kind of service shall be an options, not turned on by default, due to that it actually will cost the hostingcompany a lot of money in traffic/bandwhite if all the customers was setting the backup to be done every day and FTP the backup to an other server.
