Copying from NAS to WDTV Live Hub WITHOUT going through PC?

Hi All:

So I now have a WDTV Live Hub set up as a network share. I'd like to take my video files that I've been serving from my ReadyNas Duo, and move them to my Hub. I know I can do this by simply mounting both my ReadyNas and WDTV Live Hub to my PC, and then moving this way, but that seems the long way 'round.

Is there any way that I can log into my ReadyNas via SSH, and mv the files directly to my Hub?

Thanks,
Max

    Easiest way to move the files w/o the PC is to set up a Frontview Backup job, with the NAS as the source and the WDTV as the destination.
  • That's a clever solution... Do you know how I would identify the Hub, ie. what should I set the destination as?

    Edit: Nevermind - I was able to figure it out! Set up as a Remote Windows/NAS, use the IP as the host and BAM! Rocking... Updating now...

    Thanks,
    Max
