Backup ReadyNas to ReadyNas with rsync and exclude lists
Hi, I have two ReadyNas that are successfully doing backups (between two sites) via rsync. There is one directory that we do not wish to copy over because it contains large, temporary media files (...

Hi,
I have had an NVX for years and have been plagued with such poor backup support from Netgear :? that I ended up ditching my FTP solution (which didn't do incremental backups properly anymore) for an rsync offsite backup solution.
I got it working in the unix prompt but I too want email notifications etc so looked whether I could tweak the backup file, but it's non editable.
Haven't seen an update on this but all I need to change is the port number to: 2022.
Anyone knows how you can do this? I tried adding the port number and options to the frontview UI, but no luck.
Can someone share their executable if they got Ian's solution to work? (I have x86). Or maybe share the full script so that a perl version can be built from it. :idea:
Thanks in advance.
