Hello everyone,
I want to perform the daily backup from whm setting the remote ftp server option, ftp server address, user and password.

I want to specify the subdirectory of the ftp backup server(/nameofdirectory) but the whm says:

----------------------------------------------------------------
/mmsmaniacom is not a directory..
Backup has been disabled to prevent file loss..
----------------------------------------------------------------

Can someone help me?
Thank you a lot!

Create a directory on your EV! server iexactly the same as it is on your remote server ie.
/nameofbackupdirectory
This will then activate the backup service. No files will stay in this directory on the EV1 server, infact I don't know if it is even referenced during the process, but the software wants this included. But make sure the /path/nameofdirectory on the EV1 server is exactly the same on the remote server.

On my servers it is

EV1 Server /backup/backupdirectoryname
Remote Server /backup/backupdirectoryname
