hexus database
are you guys backing up the database on a regular basis? or do i have to save all my posts my self in case the database has to be restored like last time? Or do you need a solution to backup the database? might be able to help you there if you use mysql.
(just run mysqldump -u user -p password DATABASENAME > database.sql :)
-
Yes it is backed up daily :)...
we are looking in to running several complex shell scripts you can mail me if you want to help
-
i just use a bash script with mysqldump that dumps the database to a file with date and time in the filename and then scp's the file to another computer and the file also gets backed up by a tapedrive. wouldn't mind helping.

btw: do you know how the server was hacked last time?
got any firewall in place, etc?
