WHG FTP Backup Script
WHG FTP Backup is a utility for Cpanel and Linux server owners to make a backup of Cpanels daily backup files to a remote FTP server for safe keeping. It can be scheduled to run how often you like via a Cron job.

Requirements
Linux Cpanel Web Server with backup option enabled to second drive. 

Why Don't I use Cpanel's Built in FTP?
I made this script because I found the Cpanel backup script is flawed for Remote FTP backup - it checks the local servers backup directory for existing -- not the remote server.

Also with our backup script you can do both, remote and local backups. Plus you can schedule the local and remote backups at different times.
EG: Backup local daily
Backup remote FTP every 3 days.



The script is lightweight and very simple to setup!

Current Version: 1.0
Cost: Free - donations appreciated
