Solved SFTP Backup on a different port

[fgc92210]

Anyone know if it is possible to change the SFTP port for backups?

This should work without a probem.

How do you go into changing the destination port in Backup&Restore / SFTP ?
I know the command line expect -P , but in the Path field there is no option to put a space.
SFTP://IP: PORT doesn't work neither..

Try:

sftp://IP:port/home/username/

Example, if you are logging into server 2.2.2.2 which SFTP on port 2222 with user "mike", it should be something like sftp://2.2.2.2:2222/home/mike/
Of course the password needs to be correct, and if you are using a certificate for authentication, it has to be in OpenSSH format.
