WHM backup and ftp to remote server

Hello, i like to use the WHM backup system to make backup of my account and send them to a remote server by ftp. Backup has ben configured to backup into /backup as per default as well as the remote ftp (validated) However no backup is done (and of course no backup sent to remote ftp) I would like to know where the problem may be. I currently have a VPS with only 2 accounts. i have 75gb HD space and use about 10gb so there may be enough space for backup (delete backups afhter they has ben transfered) Also do I need to enable both backup solutions (legacy and the "default" or only one of them?) Many thanks

  @ freebee, Pls check the cpanel backup log file, so that you can understand what was happened. # nano /usr/local/cpanel/logs/cpbackup/latest backup log

  Hello :) You do not have to enable the legacy backup system. Check to make sure "Backup Accounts" is enabled and the users are selected with the "Select Users" option via: "WHM Home " Backup " Backup Configuration" Thank you.
