I modified what's needed, now it works good.
Here is the script
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqldump --opt -h localhost -uUSER -pPASSWORD SGBDNAME 
--single-transaction > "/path/tobackup/mydatabase.sql"

Just one question: does cronnix has to be started to have the schedule work ? 
Or it's just a gui to set up the cron : no need to start it after setting up 
paramaeters...

Thanks

It's like you said: CronniX is simply a GUI to edit cron's config files. It 
should be running by default on your system.

Glad it's working for you now!

Cheers,
Sven
