Hi

Would you mind adding rclone in this container ? I'ld be interested so I can backup to a FTP repository.

Best regards,

Hello @rgarrigue, I would prefer to keep the restic container clean. Most cases can be solved by restic directly or linking to the root system. Adding rclone might bring a lot of complexity to the container configuration.

Isn't it possible to configure restic to backup directly to FTP servers?

What I did before was mounting the FTP repo on the root system and link the mounted folder into the backup container.

Hi

SFTP is available but not FTP, and Online.net where I rent my server provides a free FTP space for backup, hence my question. but curlftpfs to mount ftp as a folder seems to be a decent approach, I guess I'll check this one.

Thanks for the advice
