Cannot connect via nfs, only ftp
My network has two NAs devices - a NetGear ReadyNAS 102 (2x1TB) and a STOREX (French NAs device, 1x500GB). I'm trying to configure a weekly backup of critical files from the ReadyNAS to the STOREX sy...
These are both on your local network?
With NFS, did you try using the IP address, or the storex name? If you used the name, try the IP address. Also check the storex documentation to make sure you have the right mount point (path).
FTP is not a great backup protocol on the NAS, though it should of course connect. Did you try testing the storex using an FTP client on a PC?
Hey sorry for the late response I've been working on a side roject but I'm back on the NAS.
I've been trying to use the IP address. Here's the setup for the ftp backup.
Destination Address: 192.168.0.50
Path: shares/Backups/Private
Login: username
Password: pass
I've tried an identical setup with Rsyn and the response is an instant (cannot connect to host) error
The backup is over 100GB, and the ftp just can't handle the whole backup before timing out. I can connect to both the ReadyNASand the StoreX NAS devices using filezilla fine and can SSH into the ReadyNAS and telnet into the StoreX
