rsync path
I have readyNAS NV+ v2, running RAIDiator 5.3.11, located on the local network at 192.168.1.200. There is a share called "oskarsbag", with SMB and rsync protocols enabled. There is a NAS box user called "oskar", who has read/write share access enabled for rsync.
I am trying to rsync the content from directory "dirxyz" on "oskarbag" share on NAS to a local directory on my Linux desktop named "dirback". I would expect the rsync command run in a bash shell on the desktop to be something like:
rsync -ruv oskar@192.168.1.200:/oskarbag/dirxyz/ ~/dirback
This does not work. What port number does rsync daemon on NAS listens to and what is the correct path to the directory oskarbag/dirxyz ?
TIA, Oskar B.

Ordinary rsync uses port 873.
You need the volume name in the path. Normally that is "C" on a v2 - not sure if the "C" is upper or lower case, so maybe try them both.
rsync -ruv oskar@192.168.1.200:/C/oskarbag/dirxyz/ ~/dirback
Thank you StephenB for your help.
With this and further experimentation, with Linux Mint on the desktop client, I found the following works for rsync-ing and mount-ing via desktop shell comamnds::
to rsync ("dry run"):
rsync -ruvn oskar@192.168.1.200::oskarbag/dirxyz/ ~/dirback
to mount (at "mpoint"):
sudo mount.cifs -o username=oskar,sec=ntlm,rw //192.168.1.200/oskarbag ~/mpoint
(mount.cifs will prompt for oskar's password on NAS. Mounting at local mountpoint is required to run Linux applications that can navigate only the local filesystem against the NAS-resident files)
thanks again,
Oskar
