[webmin-l] Backup Idea

[Vern <ve...@cw...>]

This weekend I ran into a situation where my T1 went down. Needless to say I wasn't a 
happy camper as the local telephone company refused to do anything about it because it 
was, of all things, raining out. Be that as it may, it got me to thinking. 

I have a T1 and I also have a 1.5 MEG DSL line. I host web sites on the T1 and manage 
everything using Webmin which I find is better than either Plesk or Ensim (but enough 
sucking up). Each night I also back up all the sites to another server in case 
anything goes wrong with the server I have a backup. However I have noticed that if 
and when you need to restore the file it is in a sort of zipped fashion. So what I 
would like to do is have each web site backed up to another server that has it's own 
DNS server and if that server's bind is actually turned on the sites go live. Is there 
are way to do this where I don;t have to manually restore the sites, but rather it 
transfers into place, with associated MySQL databases and all?

Thanks
