I did not have the correct FTP address of the online server I still would like to be able to see the FTP handshake in ZM.

How did you determine where your files were being stored?

Unfortunately, I do not have a /var/cache/zoneminder/ directory either. Here is my what I have in /var/cache/.

.. apt debconf git man pppconfig
ronnie@fred:/var/cache$
