Hi there

It seems like with ES 6.x a new system of specifying custom S3 endpoints (or S3 compatible systems) is introduced.  
Can you tell me how this can be configured over ECEs snapshot repository (non AWS buckets)?

Thx

Hi @Lafunamor

Unfortunately this doesn't work properly currently ☹ - see here for details on what the configuration would look like and what the problem is [Secure Settings Keystore vs. Config File](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/secure-settings-keystore-vs-config-file/113977)

Hi @Alex_Piggott

Thanks for pointing this out. I'm looking forward for the new minor.
