Hi,
Thought I would post and let those of you who use, and those of you who should be using it, PHPMysqlAutobackup has been updated recently.
I think the recent change will help a lot of us. Before when you set it up, you had to specify which tables to include in the backup, if you were not doing the complete db. This is the way I had to do it, so it did not back up the tracking tables. Now they have made it so you can put in the tables to exclude from the DB. So, now you can add the tracking tables to exclude, and everything else will be backed up. Great if you add tables to your DB, or Ventrino comes out with an update that adds new tables, you do not have to go add the new table in.
PHPMysqlAutobackup is free, and you can download it here.
