 * I installed wp-backup and then I got the message that from wp-cron.php there 
   comes a problem and that scheduled back-up will not function properly.
    What 
   can I do with this ?

 * I’m having a similar problem, with the message:
 * > WP Backup has detected a problem. wp-cron.php is returning a Failure when receiving
   > data from the peer response which could mean cron jobs aren’t getting fired
   > properly. WP Backup relies on wp-cron to run scheduled back ups. See the FAQ

 * This shows up on the Manage Backups screen.
 * I suspect that the host is the issue here but would like confirmation before 
   moving it forward with them..

 * i don’t think so.. i have two WP based websites in the same host, only in one
   i get the same error.. in the other WP Backup works great.
