incremental FTP backup program

[bsd]

Hello, 

I have been provided with a 1To backup space by my hosting company… unfortunately It is only accessible by FTP which does not allow me to do the regular backup / restore I use to do using RSYNC. 


What are the options I have in order to do the backup / restore of the files knowing that : 

1. I would like to have a time based backup solution (incremental with sub-folder for daily backup so I can restore files from xxx days ago). 

2. I need to use ftp as a transport

3. Some of my servers have limited space so doing a local sync then FTP will not be possible. 

4. If possible I would like a bullet proof solution ideally "well known" | tested and available from the port tree. 


In fact what I would be looking for is something like "rsnapshot" but with FTP transport / compatibility. 


 

Thanks for your answer(s).
