Doing one's own rsync and cron scripts
Hi, As, IMHO, the Ultra's GUI interface is appalling, it does not give me the backup versatility I want wth rsync and cron jobs. (Ducking the flames) Is there anything that would cause Frontview...
Thanks mdgm,
It doesn't seem there are inherent problems in Frontview to do this I don't know about then - thanks.
Though I don't know how to instruct ~ReadyNAS to terminate power to the USB ports - if it is even possible. My USB drives gives me no indication they have been unmounted.
Thanks for your help.

Agreed - but I'm used to 'once set - forget'.
won't obviously get the benefits of viewing and configuring jobs in Frontview
true though I should be able to set the text file output to a location on a share (or on my computer). In either case, in linux I should be able to pick these up and have them forwarded to me by email.
or Frontview's email alerts about backup jobs
True - I was hoping to be able to set it up so it doesn't interfere with Frontview - maybe even allowing Frontview scheduling still to work if desired.
you won't get help with this from tech support.
