Hello,

We've published a new version of Evotiva DNNBackup module, the popular backup and restore module for DotNetNuke, evolving since 2005.
Don't get confused with the copycats out there. This is the true and original DNNBackup module, in its true version 5 release.

DNNBackup provides full backup and restore to any DotNetNuke web portal.

Major highlights

• Ideal solution for website cloning, copy, move or archival.
• Easy to use: There is no need for the user to configure any setting. 
  The module is auto-configured with the most convenient setting for the current hosting environment. Advanced users can customize what, when and where to backup.
• Offsite backups: backups can be automatically saved to remote locations like a FTP server, Amazon S3 or Rackspace CouldFiles
• Evotiva DNNBackup can restore your site from scratch.
  
• This module does not depend on SMO or any other external component. 
  It provides a wide range of backup options, adapted to all hosting environments. I.e., regarding the database backup, it can use the standard SQL Server (native) backup engine, or it can use the SQL Server's SMO interface or it can use the module's own backup engine.
• Multiple schedules: advanced users can configure different scheduled jobs with different frequencies.
• Tested on most popular hosting providers including shared servers like GoDaddy, WebHost4Life, Discount ASP and PowerDNN. 
• Tested on Medium Trust hosting environments.
• It still supports source sites running SQL Server 2000 (up to the latest SQL Server 2005 and 2008 releases).

Most recent changes:

5.0.1  (August 18, 2010)

• ENH - Added new offsilte backup option: Rackspace CloudFiles.
• ENH - Added new 'Silent mode' setting: It reduces the on-screen feedback about the ongoing process. This will make the backup consume fewer resources, and it will be also faster..
• ENH - Added new backup thread priority setting: normal / belownormal / lowest. Set a below 'Normal' priority in case your ISP has set tight performance restrictions for your web site.
• ENH - 'Exclude Folders List' in Files backup settings: it now can include a wildcard in the folder definition. I.e. you can define a list like this: \Portals\*\cache,\Portals\1,\Portals\0\R*,\Portals\0\ SpecialFolder\3*,\App_Data.
• ENH - New 'Delete Local File' setting for offsite backups (FTP and/or Amazon S3 and/or Rackspace CloudFiles). To save space, the local file (database and/or files backup) is deleted after the transference was completed.
• ENH - Multiples Schedules: You can define different and as many scheduled backups as you want. E.g. you can define a daily backup of the data that changes more often and a monthly backup for more static data. You can also create a schedule to copy a single table's data or a set of portal folders, or a job just to clear the DNN Event log or shrink the database, etc. 
  
• CHG - The documentation was updated.

4.3.9  (July 9, 2010)

• ENH - New setting for database 'native' restores. You can now take advantage of the SQL Server 2008 feature which allows the creation of compressed .bak files.
• CHG - Implemented a workaround to avoid the 'The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters' message on some installations.
