Hi,
first of all thank you very much for the article. I'm not used to ubuntu terminal and I know only few things. How can I set the time when cron executes the daily backup? the automyslqbackup script is in the daily folder as u specified but I don't know how to set at what time of the day the backup shall run.

Thank you

Frank
