Rsync and remote IP problem

The normal syntax is to set the backup source to "Remote: Rsync Server", and then put the IP address in the host field. Then put the shared folder name in the path - in your case that would be la (no slashes or Cad-9, just la).
Though I would be very surprised if this works. Your company's router normally won't allow this access from the internet, you would need to change it to forward port 873 to the NAS.
You could attempt to diagnose the connection by installing DeltaCopy (a windows freeware version of rsync) on your home and work PCs. Is there someone else in your office who has deeper networking skills who could help you?
BTW, you are correct, eton should have said destination folder or directory. "volume" is a logical disk drive. If you are using XRAID2 on your ultra, your volume is "c" - you can see that if you access the NAS folders using the NAS "admin" log on and password.
