Backup

Hi,

I'm receiving everyday an email with subject: "Cron <root[at]server> /scripts/upcp"
I think it's a backup email log or something like that.

I'm noticed that I received everyday at same time (9 AM).
So, can I change my backup time?
I'd like to run a backup around 4 AM or 5 AM (-3 GMT). Because this time I have less users conected.
How can I do it?

Another thing... how can I create a custom DNS for a reseller account?

Thank you!

If your Domain Registrar allows you to point your name to IP's do the following:
Nameserver IP
NS1.Yoursite.com x.x.x.x (IP in surpass e-mail)
NS2.Yoursite.com x.x.x.x (Second IP in Surpass e-mail)

If not then you could always move to surpassdomains.com.

Cron Job:
In cPanel goto CronJobs, (i'm assumeing this CronJob is in the Advanced Unix Crons?) you can change the Hour in there. So entries would be respectively
0, 1, *, *, *, /Cron Job your runnning

Hope I helped!
GB.

I thought you put the DNS and IPs exactly as it is (from the email) on the domain registrar?
