September 13, 20223 yr Hey guys, is there a way to setup an Unraid server as a cloud backup server? I would love to make it accessible by url to have clients to point to the url and backups would go over the internet to the Unraid server. Is this possible at all?  Or would installing a docker as a backup server work? I'm trying to find backup server software that can backup client machines over the internet to my server, via straight to the Unraid server or via a Windows VM with a network drive mapped to the Unraid server storage. I would be fine with either. Thanks!

Thanks! I am trying those ports now. I was told on their forum that I only needed port 55415 forwarded. I'm testing now to see if it works or not.

I have a full Unifi setup, UDMP SE, switches, etc. Was going to post a screenshot of my settings for port forwarding and see if I was missing anything.Â
September 14, 20223 yr Can you access the admin page from WAN? Are you downloading the client directly from that page? Have you set all the preferences to allow WAN backups?
