trying to setup rsync job nas to nas with path
I'm trying to setup a pull backup job from NASPRO to NASNV+. I want to backup "sharename/folder/innerfolder" to "newnasshare/innerfolder". I've set the soource host to the IP (same subnet) of NASPR...

Well... ignoring that the "test connection" didn't work, I did try running the job as suggested.
It failed:
"Error encountered copying data from remote source path 10.1.1.22::media/AppStore ==> /media2/redux due to empty source directory."
Strange because I can mount "media" and see everything in the "AppStore" folder just fine. So I tried a couple of other folders in "media" and got the same failure message despite each of those folders containing a variety of files in them.
Any idea why the rsync job gives that "empty source directory" message all the time?
(it would be nice if the test connection worked, too)
