Removed files deleted from source using remote backup?

I have been using a 'Remote:Windows/NAS' backup to clone a folder from my mac onto my NAS, and I just now realized that anything deleted on my mac doesn't get deleted from the NAS. Is this option possible using this backup scheme? I'm thinking it isn't because that option is greyed out in the admin. What is a better option to backup a specific folder from my mac to my NAS that will allow this?

Thanks!

If you want to run the backup from the readynas, the only way to do this is with rsync.
I'm not a mac user, but it understand that rsync functionality is present on the Mac OS.

If you run the backup from the mac of course you can use any backup software you like, most would achieve what you want.
