Hi Eric. The problem is that it looks like there is no the option for adding the “S3-compatible server hostname”

I’m looking in System Settings, Virtualmin Configuration, Backup and restore but there is no the field to configure the swift storage.

I’m using Ubuntu 14.04 and Virtualmin 4.14

Do you know if I should look somewhere else?

Thanks in advance.
