rsync from remote to ReadyNAS
I am trying to mirror my local RAID archive to the ReadyNAS as a remote mirror for my archive. I followed the directions here: https://kb.netgear.com/29929/ReadyNAS-OS-6-Setting-up-a-backup-job-w...
My configuration matches the article under “Enabling SSH access for root using a public/private key pair.” except for #4, as I need to use the password in order to run rsync manually from a terminal command until I can get the key to work.
The last configuration change I made, a few weeks ago, was to allow password access so I could manually run rsync. Before that, it has been years since I made any changes, and the only change back then was to activate rsync, ssh, and upload the key. It has worked perfectly for a long time, then stopped.
What change should I make in permissions?
Thanks,

Hello Radjin,
There might be some permission configuration that causes this issue.
To access shares using Rsync:
1. Ensure that the Rsync file-sharing protocol is enabled on your ReadyNAS storage
system.
Refer to the below link
https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/READYNAS-100/READYNAS_OS_6_SM_EN.pdf
And refer to page number 93 and 71 for changing the network access rights permission for source and host configuration.
That may enable you to access the rsync without a password.
For more information about Rsync terminal program commands,
