Hello, I read it Unable to add FTP as remote backup, Today I’m trying to configure Sftp and getting the same error Error: can’t login to sftp [email protected]. Could someone share how I can set this up? Thank you
You can login from command line?
sftp -P9899 [email protected]
The issue is not resolved in current Hestia version but in the first screenshot you sent, I can’t see that your user is using a @ in the name.
Yes, I use rclone to backup to sftp but I tested it with sftp and if the user name doesn’t have a @ it works fine.
First option should work fine, I tested it 10 minutes ago.
Anyway, using rclone you should not have problems
Okay, thanks for your attention, I checked again, same error, I’ll try rclone. Thank you again!
I don’t think [email protected] as user name works
As it is usually an used to authenticate via ssh deameon… And ssh usernames can’t have @ in there user names…
Apparently, I don’t have either option 1 or 2, both give an error, only in the first case it is the error [email protected], although only the login is indicated, and in the second when the login and domain admin@example are indicated in place of the login .com, then the error is clearly visible in the second screenshot [email protected]@admin@example.com.
