Hi, I normally use freefilesync as a backup tool with an external usb drive. It is an excellent basic tool.

Now I would like to use it with a Linux Server (Debian) in a local network.

However I am getting this error.

Error code 95: Operation not supported (futimens)

I am trying to sync a folder in my computer "/home/local_folder" with a remote folder on that server "run/user/1000/gvfs/sftp:host=server_name,user=user_name/remote_folder"

From what I read in the forum, I believe it is possible, however maybe a I have to modify some parameters.

I am running Linux Mint 17.

Thanks.
