Ok. so I'm (probably) half way through. I chose in Destination tab:
1. Type: remote
2. Name: remote:Rsync Server
3. Host: 127.0.0.1
and tested connecton - it worked. But the problem now is that I want to backup a share TEST into a folder TEST on a USB drive (in general, every share on NAS will have its own folder on the drive where it'll be backuped into).
When I enter in a path field:
1. 'TEST', I get a message 'Successfully connected to 127.0.0.1::TEST' but when I start a job I get 'Error backup job 'TEST': error in data stream. Please check remote rsync server settings' .
2. 'TEST/' or 'TEST\' give the same
3. '\TEST' and '/TEST' result in 'Unable to connect to host' message.
What should I enter into the path field to have the TEST share backuped into the TEST folder on the USB drive?
