Is there a facility out there that I can use to automatically backup my
database to my local machine every night using PHP and MySQL?

Thanks for your help

script using crond at scheduled time or periodiacally as you define in
cron

Hi Shaun,

DevShed's last weekly newsletter had the following:

Daily Scheduled Backup of MYSQL Databases - Looking for a free tool or
utility to handle scheduled MySQL backups. 
http://forums.devshed.com/t74513/s.html

Haven't tried any of the solutions yet, but will be soon!

James

Do some googling.  I keep seeing this on the listserv and there has to
be a free/opensource one out there somewhere.
