I then looked up the machine's public IP address and tried using that in Filezilla but that didn't work either. Under System Preferences > Sharing > Remote Login, the IP address listed there seems to be a private one so when I enter that IP address in Filezilla, it won't connect. What' I'm having trouble is figuring out how to properly connect to this Mac through an FTP client such as Filezilla or Cyberduck from my machine at home. I also went under System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing to make sure the right folders and access are added. I went through the steps of going to System Preferences > Sharing > Remote Login and enabling our accounts. I have great upload speeds using FTP/SFTP for other servers so I wanted to see how to connect through SFTP to the Mac that's in our office. We have TeamViewer set up which let's me log on to the machine connected to the backup drive but TeamViewer's file transfers are INCREDIBLY slow and I need to upload 100+ GB per backup project.
However, we regularly have to back up very large video files onto storage that's located in our office. Thanks to the pandemic, my film company has been doing a lot more remote work.
