Created attachment 185568 [details] Conflicting messages in Kup SUMMARY The default description for the Destination > Filesystem path option in Kup says that "You can use this option for backing up to a [...] networked storage". I recently connected a `samba` share via Dolphin, so I simply copy-pasted the path to the remote folder I wanted to use as destination in Kup/Backup settings. I'm now warned, with a bright orange box, that "Only local filesystem paths will work!". This is confusing for two reasons: 1. As mentioned, the description tells me from the start that "networked storage" can be used, and a samba share is a networked storage. 2. The warning is in direct contrast with this description. Either only "local filesystem paths" work, or also networked. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open System Settings > System > Backups 2. Add new backup plan 3. In "Destination", use a folder in a samba drive that was mounted via Dolphin (folder path starts with `smb://`) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.18.0
