SipXecs will write to the root of the ftp folder. So you need to make sure you can create directories on the root of the ftp server. We have two sipXecs boxes backing up to the same ftp server (ftp server is on our lan, so no firewall issues). One is backing up Monday morning, the other is Tuesday morning. Here is what is on the root of our ftp server. We are running the most recent 4.4

Typically you would change the "user account" to point to the directory you want sipx to PUT the files into. This would be something you set at your FTP server, not at sipx.

When I click on Backup now from the Web , it says" Backup completed successfully on the configured FTP server." though. but nothing was written on the FTP server.. Do I need to create a specific directory on the FTP that SIPX is expecting to see to backup files to? I would also like to try the NFS method and would appreciate if someone can send a step by step document to achieve mounting the Backup directory on SIPX to an external drive..
