I would like to use my FTP server (outside service) for my backup destination. I have a folder setup in "my network places" linking to the FTP site (I also use filezilla to access my files). I'm using win XP, and I don't think I can map (i.e. C:/) my ftp address as a network drive. When I try to select my ftp folder in "my network places" in the fbackup wizard, the "OK" button stays greyed out (I can't select it). So....how do I specify an FTP site (i.e. ftp.myweb.com)???
Please help. Thank you!

Hi,
You cannot backup to FTP or mapped FTP drives using FBackup.

If you want to back up to such destinations, we recommend you a commercial application: Backup4all.

Do you know you can monitor your backups remotely with Backup4all Monitor? You can read more here: https://www.backup4all.com/backup4all-monitor.html
