    /scripts/pkgacct username ; mv cpmove-username.tar.gz /path/to/folder

    where username is the cPanel username of the account whose backup you want to generate. This will generate the backup of the account in the /home partition and move it to the folder you specify.
    1 solution works for all problems. Trying harder!
