How to specify remote folder (on SFTP server) in Free File Sync

(1/3) > >>

kyrathaba:
Using Free File Sync and like it. Does great with local drives. Find and connects to my website okay via SFTP. However, I can't figure out how to correctly tell it where to look for the remote backup folder. I have a directory named /Proofreading/ that is located at the same level as .cpanel, public_ftp, public_html, etc. Anyone know how to fill in the info correctly in the circled area in the screenshot below?

skwire:
I'll ask the obvious question...does entering "Proofreading" without the quotes and slashes work?

kyrathaba:
Nope. Tried it barebones. Also tried with only the trailing slash, and with both a fore- and trailing slash.

skwire:
SSH into the box and navigate to the Proofreading folder.  Then, use the PWD command to get the actual full path and try that.

kyrathaba:
I have putty. Is there an equivalent comma to PWD?
