remote borg client

[ThomasWaldmann]

for the use case of e.g. backing up a local server and still wanting a nice gui, vorta could invoke ssh user@server borg ... instead of just borg ....

problem: all places using the file/directory selector dialog from the local OS / FS.

[ThomasWaldmann]

using vorta on the server would be an alternative to above. ssh -X or x2go.

This could also mean generating borg commands that are setup remotely on the server so that a cron can handle the borg commands instead of being launched by vorta (or is this kind of feature a separate issue?)

[ThomasWaldmann]

@arthurlutz sound like a slightly different idea.

Also, generating commands for cron makes no difference whether you'ld edit these commands into your local or remote crontab. But I fear this is slightly out-of-scope of vorta anyway (and people who deal with crontabs and servers maybe don't need vorta to create the right commands anyway).
