  • Brief description of the issue
    With above setting, I have also installed lftp, so that is not the problem now.
    I am getting below error messages :
    mput: Operation not supported: 405 Method Not Allowed (PUT)

Also, how can I use sftp instead of lftp. Do i need to specify credentials for lftp or sftp somewhere ?

  • Work-around, if any
    not yet.

Just a guess, but this looks like PUT method is not allowed on you web server ;-).
So maybe not a ReaR issue at all?

The following combination is not allowed:

BACKUP=NETFS
BACKUP_URL="http://abcd.1234.partners/"

The http does only work with the OUTPUT_URL. Select a supported transport method for the BACKUP_URL - see the rear man page https://github.com/rear/rear/blob/master/doc/rear.8.adoc

I think with https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/1005#issuecomment-248541753
this issue can be closed.

FYI:
See also https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/1003
I did not notice the invalid BACKUP_URL="http://..." therein.
