This article is the last of a four part series describing my current backup system:

1. In the first article I explain how I use restic to perform my backups.
2. In the second article I describe how I use Healthchecks and Gotify to verify that the backups run periodically.
3. In the third article I show how I automate the backups, in particular when I need to read files with special permissions.
4. Finally in this article I detail the process I had to follow to backup a remote server to a machine on my home local network.

One of my use cases is to backup data on some of my server to a local machine on my home network. There are multiple ways to do this, in this article I detail how I solved this issue with a SSH reverse tunnel. I also have an alternate article explaining how to achieve the same objective with a permanent port forwarding, a dyndns and a self-signed certificate.
