Personally, I have create a file.sh (right 755) in the root directory, file who do this job, on order of the crontab.
Crontab code:
10 2 * * * root /root/backupautomatique.sh
File.sh code:
rm -f /home/mordb-148-251-89-66.sql.gz #(To erase the old one)
mysqldump mor | gzip > /home/mordb-148-251-89-66.sql.gz (what you have done)
scp -P2222 /home/mordb-148-251-89-66.sql.gz root@otherip:/home/mordbexternes/mordb-148-251-89-66.sql.gz
(to send a copy somewhere else if the sending server crashes, because too old, like me ;-))
