Rsync not working between RN528X and RN212
Trying to execute a backup from the Pictures share of RN528X to the Pictures share of the RN212. Rsync is enabled in the system settings, and Rsync is enabled specifically on the Pictures folder...
Forgot to mention, I also tried:
- Entering username/password (admin/xxxxxxxxxx), didn't help - and the NTGR documentation advises against it
- Instead of Destination IP address, tried "Discover" button which found "RN212:local" instance. Didn't help
- Added the source IP address to the Destination share Network settings. Didn't help
- Tried "remote: Windows/NAS (Timestamp)" (by mistake actually), and when I do this, selecting "Browse" actually shows me all the Pictures sub-folders perfectly. However, this protocol also fails when executing a backup.
- Tried manually typing "Pictures" in the Destination Share location, didn't help. Also tried "Pictures/", didn't help.
Is rsync enabled for the share on the remote NAS?
Is rsync enabled for the share on the remote NAS?
Yes:
"Rsync is enabled in the system settings, and Rsync is enabled specifically on the Pictures folders of both NAS's as well (right click on Pictures folder, select Settings, click on Network tab, make sure Rsync is ON and Read/Write is selected)."
