How can I safe a backup directly to an external FTP folder?

You would use the POst Processing setup in Configuration to move your backup to a remote FTP server. It works similarly to moving your backup to a cloud storage service.

I don't see a menu item line 'post processing'...

Please double check to see that you have the Pro version of Akeeba Backup installed. The Post Processing options are not available in the Core version. If you have the Core version installed, all you need to do is download the Pro version and install it on top of what you have. Your settings and saved backups will not be affected.

Akeeba Backup Professional 6.0.1

It should be in the Advanced Configuration section of the Configuration page. If it isn't there, then we have a bad install of Akeeba Backup Pro.

To correct that, please download Akeeba Backup Pro from our Downloads page if you haven't already and install it twice, back to back, without doing anything in between. Do not uninstall, that will cause you to lose all your settings and possibly your stored backup archives. This install twice trick usually works around a bug in the Joomla! installer where it doesn't copy all of the files during an installation or upgrade.

I got it -

Thx!
