- can' t backup remotely through ssh and rsync
Hello, I would like to backup some files from a Debian Computer via ssh and rsync. My firmware version is 6.10.1. When I am configuring my remote backup I choose on the left side "remote" and on...
What IP address are you using for the remote source?
Have you tried doing this with rsync (not rsync over ssh)?

It' s an IP from my LAN range: 192.168.178.*

No, because I have not configured rsync as a server.

Main question here was whether it was the IP of the debian pc.

Yes, it was.

My ssh connection via keys works fine.
