Looking for a good Automated Backup & Email tool?

[MrChris]

I am looking for a good working PHP based utils I can use on my site to backup and ZIP an large "20MB+" zip file of my site and my MySQL Database, and email it to me on a daily or weekly bases. I know I have Cron Access but dont understand just what cron commands to use and I have read the KB article but not sure on the command to do a daily backup and email it to me. I have setup a mailbox just for this purpose on my mail server to handle large attachments up to 1GB. I just always want to have an offline copy of updated content of my site.

Thanks,

MrChris

Greetings,

You can try the typical sites like:

http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/
http://www.codejunction.com/

But in my opinion, some of the best programs I've used for backups have not been webbased, however, if you want I will keep my eyes and ears open..
