    Login Into Cpanel
    There is an option "Backups" there click it
    Then You Can See Full Backup
    Then Click 'Generate/Download a Full Backup"

    what would you do if you have multiple domains on one cpanel account and only want to backup one of the addon domains?

    looked in my cpanel and I am pretty sure I do not. I am going to get with my hosting provider and find out for sure. This sounds promising.

    Of course if the new server I am moving the files too doesn't have ssh access will the be a waste or will I be able to extract the archive without it?
