Problem:

The remote backup fails if you use a custom SSH port. It must be 22 for it to complete the transfer. Not sure if it’s a bug, or by design. I had custom ports on both the remote and destination servers. When I switched both servers back to port 22, the remote backup worked great,

After the backup completed with port 22, none of the MySQL database passwords came over successfully with the Remote Backup. I got “Error establishing a database connection” on all my WordPress websites. Copying the password from wp-config.php and “changing” it in the Cyberpanel Database area resolved the error instantly.
