Re: [PHP] PHP Backing up a Database?
This is what you'll want to do: 0 0 * * * /path/to/mysqldump -u[username] -p[username] [database] /path/to/backup.sql Put that above in your crontab (you might want to tar/gzip it too if it's big) then download it via cron to your local box. You could also look into rsync. --Joe On Sat, Nov 17, 2001 at 10:25:04PM +, cosmin laslau wrote: Hi, Say I'm not really confident in the prowess of my server, and I want to download my database onto my computer.
