Hi,
Hope you are well?
- Can you tell me how I can force AkeebaBackup to do a full backup not to local but to a remote ftp location?
- Did I see it right that a backup contains the backup of the backup folder itself as well?

Wishing you a great 2014 too!

Hello Jos,

to backup to a remote FTP serve, I suggest you to read the related entry in the docs.

Regarding backing up the backups, Akeeba Backup automatically excludes current profile output directory. This mean that if you have different profiles with different output positions, you have to exclude them manually.
