October 22, 20196 yr Hi, I'm after some sort of plugin or docker that allows me to backup or sync an FTP drive to my Unraid server. What ideas are recommended?

Janky solution: set up a VM, map share to VM, run ftp client in VM and copy to the mapped share. Advanced solution: install rclone plugin. I believe rclone supports ftp remote (caveat: I have never used ftp remote myself). Then rclone mount and rclone sync will serve your purpose.
October 23, 20196 yr I'm also curious about this. I would like to copy the nightly backups from a website I have on a shared host to my home Unraid server. So this would require a docker or plugin that could connect by FTP to the shared webhost and then transfer/save files from it to a local Unraid share. Sounds like a similar scenario. I've been using SyncBack on a Windows PC to do this, but would rather the operation happen directly from the Unraid server if possible. Ideally I would be able to schedule this to occur overnight. Is there a docker container which can accomplish this?

The rclone commands are pretty simple and easy to understand though + rclone wiki is very helpful. You just have to be comfortable with command line (and set up bash scripts).
