HOW TO: Automated database backups (1 line of code + cPanel)

[BradTheGeek]

wanted to say thanks for this. My command line fu is really rusty, but this helped a bundle. My provider doesnt have uuencode, but does have mutt (aliased to mail, with mutt invisible). Mutt allows me to use command line options to send attachments. So now I have used this info to build a script that backups up 5 different databases (wp, drupal, and mybb) and email them to me. I also have it create a tarball of all my hosting but that is too big to mail, so the text of the mail reminds me of where the tarball is dropped, ad all is good. I may try to integrate it with a dropbox account or something later and post updated info here.

Thanks again!
