Remote backup to my NAS from my family
Dear all, I've just installed a Readynas Ultra 2 at home, which isn't my first attempt to create a safe backup for mine and my family's photos and documents, but I hope it will be a successful one...
New update
Alrighty then. :)
Coolsnaz, I wasn't able to activate the setting. When trying to apply the changes, I got a message sounding something like "The settings were changed to match the share", and the box was unticked.
However, it seems StephenB hit the nail on the firewall. I added SyncBackSE to trusted applications in their firewall, and then the upload worked! It seems the firewall blocked the program from using the data transfer ports?
As it is now, the SyncBackSE profile launches at startup, and the FTP upload has been going on and off (as it should) for the last few days. I can see their share growing (and files being added) as time goes by, and it seems to work just as I want to! :)
So far I've only tested with one of my family members, but hopefully the rest will work out to.
THANK YOU!
