Backup -> Source -> Remote Rsync Server -> Port
I'm using a: NAS 516 Firmware 6.1.4 And setup a "Backup -> Source -> Remote Rsync Server" Since there is nowhere in frontview to set a Port, I edited /etc/frontview/backup_jobs.conf by finding my job (backupJob), then editing the line: "<src_port>0</src_port>" and changing the 0 to the port I need to use. (default 0 means use the default port 873). This job now runs correctly using the alternative rsync port using a remote server. My questions are: 1. Will frontview add an option for the rsync server port in a future firmware? 2. If I manually edit /etc/frontview/backup_jobs.conf via the root shell login, will the system try to revert the change by any events, especially firmware upgrades. Thanks for any input.5.4KViews1like3Comments
