Hi omelin

You goto siteworx, backups, schedule, create scheduled backup or backup now, create backup and select FTP or sftp/scp, continue, set your email address for notification status to, path is your path on the FTP server when you have logged into FTP, username and password, hostname is the IP address or URL of FTP server, and you should be good to go

I hope that helps and I have understood your question

Many thanks

John
