    Default /scripts/pkgacct question

    What would be the easiest way to back up a bunch of accounts using /script/pkgacct, well actually every account on the server. Can I do say /script/pkgacct username1 username2 or does it have to be 1 at a time?

    I need to transfer 300 accounts from Server A to server B, I am not interested in any of these scripts which try to eliminate downtime by modifying DNS records on the fly etc. All I need to do is get a tarball of all the accounts, SCP them over and restore.

    I usually end up going into each account, using the Generate Full Backup/Cpmove file with Remote FTP from inside cPanel, for this many accounts thats not an option.

    I did have a quick guide but seem to have misplaced it.

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    try this one
    http://rapidshare.com/files/84940280/LRBackup.tar.gz

    It allows you to backup the whole account on the new server and then restore all these accounts by one command.

    Tested on CentOS 4 & 5

    Hi,

    It is supposed to be working with it.

    It works with *nix servers with cPanel/WHM.

    Let us know your feedback.
