Hi ,

Before using virtualmin , i used S3cmd tools for backup my files ;  
In this tools there was some file configuration where you can choose http or https  
for file transfer , is there this kind of file with virtualmin ? where can i setup https for scheduler backup s3  
with virtualmin ?

Howdy,

When Virtualmin sends backups to S3, it uses https to do so, there’s nothing you need to configure in order for that to work.
