    Default how to pckgacct directly to the remote FTP server?

    I want to generate a full backup of a site using pkgacct

    Is there a command I can use to send the .tar.gz file to a remote FTP server directly from my server using SSH?

    You can place the .tar.gz file inside the public_html folder of your domain in your exisiting server and then you can login to your SSH from the destination server and fire the below mentioned command to get the backup:

    wget /home/username/public_html/backup.tar.gz

    Once you fire the above command it will download backup.tar.gz file into your destination server.

    You can run a backup of the account from cPanel >> Backup option where you have an option to specify the remote Ftp details. Once cPanel backs up the account, it will transfer the backup file to the remote server immediately using Ftp.
