Send away backups

[TXC]

Is it possible to modify the backup script that backup sites to send away the backups to a remote host. Via SCP o FTP.

Only one day backup is not a option for me.

well, why put the dev team to work when you can do it yourself.
use webmin and you can easily create your own back-up cron jobs.
i'm using it for about 2 months and every day at 3am it uploads a back-up of my var/www/virtual to a remote ftp. works great .
http://www.webmin.com/ enjoy!

Webmin sucks, it's slow and eats resources.

I'm not looking for the dev team to do the work for me.
If you read my question again it says "Is it possible to modify".

/ var / lib / mysql

What do you mean with that?

My MySQL server is hosted on a separate server.

Is not sorry for the partner who does the backup with webmin.

Maybe this solution running as cron can help you

Code:

#!/bin/bash

hostname="HOSTNAME"
username="USER"
password="PASSWD"
for i in /var/www/virtual/*; do
  for j in $i/backups/*; do
    filename=$j
    ncftpput -E -u $username -p $password $hostname . $filename
  done
done

or use reoback / ftplicity or similar to backup your system. Im currently using reoback and the ispcp function is disabled.

sci2tech's solution was something that i was looking for.
