Synology

Change IP

Control panel -> (connectivity) Network -> tab network interface -> select LAN and click Edit.

Enable SSH

Control panel -> (System) Terminal & SNMP enable SSH

Control panel -> (connectivity) Security -> Firewall tab -> create a rule for SSH (encrypted terminal services), enable and save

you can then log in to the machine using user root and the default admin password

to enable your users to access the terminal vi /etc/passwd and change /sbin/nologin to /bin/ash

Prepare for rsync

NB the synology can only push rsync files, it can not be set up to pull files from a remote rsync server.

Control panel -> (file sharing) Shared Folder -> create folder to back up to. Give the user you want to rsync to Read/Write access

Start (top left) -> Backup & replication -> backup services -> enable network backup service

Start (top left) -> Backup & replication -> Backup Destination -> create Local Backup destination -> backup up data to local shared folder -> the name you put in there will be the module name or the path you can use later.

then add the section in /etc/rsyncd.conf changing only the path and comment values (of course under the module name)

restart rsync with

/usr/syno/etc/rc.sysv/S84rsyncd.sh restart

If you don't do this, it will rsync everything without the user name for some reason

Netgear ReadyNas Ultra setup for rsync to Synology

in the /admin interface first

Services -> Standard File Protocols -> ensure Rsync is enabled

Shares -> share listing -> click on rsync icon. scroll up and change default access to 'read only'. Set hosts allowed access to ip of synology (192.168.0.101). Fill in the username and password!

Backup -> Add a new backup job

If you don't fill in the path above it will copy the whole share. If you browse the share you can select a subdir to copy.

Note that the Path needs to be EMPTY before pressing the 'Test connection' button. It will sometimes work if you fill in NetBackup but you're best off doing the test empty, then typing in the path and then apply bottom right to test the backup job.
