Enabling remote backup will keep the files in the current server?

[kandalf]

I have enabled the remote backup, but I still have the backups in the current server, can I erase it or the remove backup it's only a duplication of my local backup?

In other words can we have only the remote backup without store the anything in the current server?

Yes

I got same problem , i'm setting up sheduler, making test connection to ftp serwer, and all seems fine, but on remote server is just a empty folder.

Backup script making folders /ZEUS-BACKUP/full/weekly/Sunday/accounts/ but it is empty. No error log.

Same here !!!

check the log file /var/log/cwp/cron_backup.log for clues as to why it's not uploading

This is that issue, but why , any permissions ?

[rcschaff]

Log in via ssh, and try to manually upload the file via the command line "ftp" program.

ftp backup.host
cd /ZEUS-BACKUP/full/daily/Tuesday/accounts/
put /home/tmp_bak/.backup_temp/zupomeg/zupomeg.tar.gz

Also check the other sides logs for clues.  It could be that /ZEUS-BACKUP/full/daily/Tuesday/accounts/ doesn't exist, and ftp doesn't automatically mkdir's
