Fail to backup from remote FTP server
I'm wanting to have my RN102 automatically download from a remote FTP server. I've shared a directory with numerous subfolders. The NAS will synchronise the folder structure correctly but only download one file for each subfolder, even though at the source they contain many files. The job status is 'Complete'. I've configured to do a full backup every time. Any suggestions?

- What version of ReadyNAS OS are you running?
- 6.2.2
- What software is the remote FTP server using for the FTP service?
- Here's the service I'm using. I've not yet tried the rsync option.
https://whatbox.ca/wiki/file_downloading_and_uploading - I'm still hoping to get some help on this.
- Rsync is a better option for this than FTP. FTP isn't designed for backups whereas Rsync is.
