      I've searched google and the forum. What I would like to do is enable SSH only to transfer the backup files to the windows host, then turn ssh off again. Is this possible?

        0/ You don't need sshd enabled to copy files via SCP/SFTP.
        1/ Windows does not support the above natively.
