https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR has a section on backing up over a network. there is also an associated forum thread if you need help or wish to discuss the process.

I hope this information is useful to you.

Well, thank you really much for those quick answers.

in fact, when it is asked:
"Select a location to place the backup"
I would like to be able to put something like:
mylogin@myhost:/my/folder

with myhost the remote computer where the backup will be stored.
in this case, the backup would be done with the help of ssh.

Well, after facing this problem I finally chose grsync instead of keep because it supports the ssh protocol to do the backup.

I hope in the future you'll improve keep to also support ssh.

Best regards,
