I've looked but can't see anything - is it possible to do a automatic scheduel for backing up your site with IX? I had it with my last host and it was very useful
If not (silly question coming up) how do I do it with IX?

They do backups but I think it's only on their schedule. Other than that you do your own back up. I try to do at least one a day. The data base takes about 5 or 6 minutes. The files on the FTP server take a bit longer, less then an hour I think. Been a long time since I've check the time it takes. I don't back up those files now but maybe once a month or so, our board dosn't change anymore since Blake moded it to the hilt! LOL
Like I said the database only takes about 5 minutes. But I only have one to backup.

Thanks! How do you do it? Do you export the database or is there another way I'm missing? |

Yes it is easy, especially with only one database. We have more but this is the only one I back up.
