Setting Up an Nsync Target on an Nsync Device
On the Nsync target server, the administrator of that server has to set up a user
account with a folder named “nsync” and grant write access.
1. On the Nsync server, add a user for Nsync source (ex. nsyncsource1). For
instructions on how to add a user on the 1U4500, see Chapter 4: System
Management > User and Groups Management > Local User
Management > User and Groups Management > Local User
Configuration >
2. On the Nsync server, grant that user (ex. nsyncsource1) write access to
the nsync folder. For instructions on how to set up a folder’s ACL, see
.
3. Once this is done, the target server will start accepting Nsync tasks from
server using that ID and password.
Setting Up an Nsync Target on Another Device
If you selected “Other Device” when setting up your Nsync task, the 1U4500 will
use the FTP protocol to back up the share folder. On the external storage device,
make sure there is a folder named “nsync”, and the Auth ID has writable
permission in that folder.
