offsite backups?

Posted by PirateSolutions, 05-13-2011, 05:41 PM

So I have 2 virtual servers. I would want to use one for backup. Im interested only in MySQL backup on a remote SSH(2nd VPS). Anyone got some script for that?

Here's one example script that I have used. Note the script has your password in it, so if someone gets ahold of the script, :| Make sure to chmod 600 mysqlbackup.sh script file. You'll also want to set up passwordless SSH logins via keys: http://www.petefreitag.com/item/532.cfm

I don't think this is good for security...
