Partial RSYNC failure or ReadyNAS bug?
I have a QNAP TurboNAS which I back up to a Netgear ReadyNAS NV+. There are four shares that I want to replicate via rsync. Both sets of folders exist on both devices. Rsync is successfully working...

If you know the server, rsync will show you all (listable) modules:
# rsync nas.local::
backup "Backup Share"
media "Media Server Share
Note that the :: at the end of the command line is needed.
@JohnnyB:
Well, thanks for disproving my theory. :wink: Here are the results:
From the ReadyNAS (IP = 192.168.200.5)
dls-00-rd1:~# rsync 192.168.200.5::
TEST "TEST"
backup "Backup Share"
downloads "all downloaded applications, utilities, and extensions"
film_vault "all film files and applications"
media "Media Server Share"
dls-00-rd1:~#
And the results from the QNAP
[~] # rsync 192.168.200.5::
TEST "TEST"
backup "Backup Share"
downloads "all downloaded applications, utilities, and extensions"
film_vault "all film files and applications"
media "Media Server Share"
[~] #
So based on this test it seems the ReadyNAS is in fact configured correctly for the RSYNC share "film_vault" and in fact the fault lies with the QNAP for not displaying it in the GUI (when it is clearly visible from the command line). So now I'm off to QNAP support. Thank you to everyone for their assistance in pinpointing where the error is -- not always easy when multiple products/companies are involved.
