Backing up a CPDC Linux remotely

[terrysdavid]

Hi guys,
Has anyone ever tried backing up the Linux component of a CPDC remotely using SFTP? I want to be able to use sysbackup -b and select the option 2
[admin2@pap-pss ~]$ sysbackup -b
1. Backup to USB device.
2. Backup to SFTP server.

I've read some documentation indicating that we can use OpenSSH but I'm having trouble with that. I can remotely back up the call server database though.

Any documentation or pointers would be helpful. I don't want to go to these remotes sites with a USB to perform a backup.

Best regards
Terry

the backup isn't really a back up perse....it just backs up some basic ip's and passwords for restoring it if it crashes.
