Re: [webmin-l] Backup Idea

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

Hi Vern,
If you are just looking for a way to restore a Virtualmin backup
automatically, take a look at the restore-domain.pl script in the
virtual-server directory under the Webmin root. It does exactly the same
thing as the restore form in the web interface, but could be run from a
script if needed..
