Once the server is configured, the setup of the SFTP repository can simply be

Yes, that's really two slash (`/`) characters after the host name, here the
directory `/tmp/backup` on the server is meant. If you'd rather like to create
a repository in the user's home directory on the server, use the location

For an S3-compatible repository without TLS available, use the alternative URI
protocol `s3:http://server:port/bucket_name`.

only available via HTTP, you can specify the URL to the server like this:
`s3:http://server:port/bucket_name`.
