Hello,

first of all thank you for the amazing script

I am on a shared hosting
which doesn't support CGI/PERL at all

is there some way to schedule daily automatic backup by a php script instead of the CGI one?

I have used to make daily backups with php scripts like WHMCS , and there is no problem in that at my hosting

i just need the url i shall put in the crontab to run to execute the backup

many thanx
