sciascia1 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Hi There, I have a bunch of sFTP volumes mounted on the OSX desktop. How do I get Retrospect to see them as a source to be backed up? I can copy data from these volumes in the Finder so everything is working on the OSX side. Any help would be much appreciated.

Lennart_T Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 I don't think you can do that on Retrospect 9. You have to mount the network volume using AFP or SMB from the Retrospect server GUI. Which version are you running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sciascia1 Posted July 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Thanks for that, we're using Retrospect 10.2.0 (201). I guess I thought that if OSX was handling the mounting, it's just another volume? Anyway, backing up websites is kind of a pain, it would be nice if Retrospect could use SFTP or SSH - having a backup of company assets in the normal backup (in addition to online backups) would be really useful.

Lennart_T Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Can you install the Retrospect Client software on the ftp server(s)? That would be the best solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sciascia1 Posted July 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 It's a lean and mean Linux web server - is there a command line version for Debian Linux? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
