SFTP Repo? #6

Closed flamingm0e closed 7 months ago

flamingm0e commented 7 months ago

Is there a way to add an SFTP repo?

I mostly run my backups to Wasabi, but I also have a storage VPS at HostHatch that I like to utilize (currently backing up my Nextcloud server there). Currently running SFTPGO on that server as an endpoint for my NAS to back up to.

Haven't tested yet, but you could mount the SFTP folder and use the local path option when adding the repo.

flamingm0e commented 7 months ago

Thanks.

I was hoping for native SFTP like restic offers. I'll give it a shot though.

ad-on-is commented 7 months ago

Oh.. I totally did not see restic had SFTP support. I will add it.

flamingm0e commented 7 months ago

Oh you rock! I was just setting up a docker container on my NAS to see if I could replace my Duplicacy backups. That SFTP option would be tremendous there.

1.0.30 is building... Hopefully this should cover sftp, rclone and rest compatibility.

flamingm0e commented 7 months ago

You are awesome!

I'm so excited to have a GUI on my favorite backup utility

ad-on-is commented 7 months ago

Thank you 😅,

could you confirm that it works. I haven't had a chance to test it.

flamingm0e commented 7 months ago

I got it working!

I did have to init the repo first from the command line using an ssh config file due to port (I think Restic has a problem with this, so not your issue)

After figuring out the repo init issue, using sftp:user@host:2022/restic it connects and works fine.

Just a note: when adding a new repo the pre-filled text says smtp instead of sftp

Trying to get this working in the Docker container and it throws an error about ssh not being available in the path, which I assume means the image needs open-ssh added?

ad-on-is commented 7 months ago

yes... restic indeed mentions to do all the necessary stuff in ~/.ssh/config.

Added openssh and rclone to the dockerfile and aur

flamingm0e commented 7 months ago

Yeah, I misread the Restic docs thinking it said if I needed to add a port TO an IPv6, not add a port OR IPv6. :smile: I no read good

Thank you for all of this. I will not have a chance to test the latest changes until tomorrow.

ad-on-is commented 7 months ago

All good. You've been of huge help already, finding these little things I missed :-)

ad-on-is commented 7 months ago

I'll close this one for now. If there's an issue feel free to reopen/open a new one.
