Which backup file contains... Administration user's password, quota and Cron jobs?

Virtualmin

SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version Ubuntu 22.04
Webmin version 2.013
Virtualmin version 7.5

I am trying to recover a particular CRON job command from a backup file of a long gone server.
Which file, inside the backup archive, contains the CRON command descriptions?
I have done searches within the archive itself but I cannot find it.
I found mydomain.com_webmin->cron->mydomain.acl but it contains only 4 lines of parameters and no commands.

Any help very appreciated.

BTW.
On my current system a similar job is physically located in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/USERNAME
I believe the CRON jobs were running as root… so maybe they would not be included in the backup???

Do you have the /etc/ directory available?

No unfortunately. What I have are virtual server backups which contain all features of the virtual server.

I just found out I’ve lost year of archives because they were symlinked and backups didn’t copy them over. The archives were in var but the symlinks were in home. I’m still ‘discussing’ the issue with the soon to be previous provider.
