Hello everyone, I apologize for going silent for so long. I haven't had a chance to respond and since the issue is closed, I would like to re-open this issue since I am still having this issue of implementing the auto back up.
Per the feedback, I have checked the following locations and noted their outputs below:
/etc/crontab
`
/etc/crontab: system-wide crontab
Unlike any other crontab you don't have to run the crontab
command to install the new version when you edit this file
and files in /etc/cron.d. These files also have username fields,
that none of the other crontabs do.
SHELL=/bin/sh
You can also override PATH, but by default, newer versions inherit it from the environment
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
Example of job definition:
.---------------- minute (0 - 59)
.------------- hour (0 - 23)
.---------- day of month (1 - 31)
.------- month (1 - 12) OR jan,feb,mar,apr ...
.---- day of week (0 - 6) (Sunday=0 or 7) OR sun,mon,tue,wed,thu,fri,sat
user-name command to be executed
17 root cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
25 6 root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )
47 6 7 root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly )
52 6 1 * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.monthly )

Back In Time system entry, this will be edited by the gui:
Please don't delete these two lines, or all custom backintime entries will be deleted next time you call the gui options!
