remote

Hi, I am backing up a server to a remote Synology. Synology connects to it via the hostname of my WAN that resolves to the ip. Everything works. However in the backup list the server is listed as the hostname. I want to add a more descriptive name, especially if I am going to back up several...

Thank you to both Rusty and WST16 for their rapid and helpful responses to my first question yesterday. Having read the recommended documents I am wiser, but not necessarily sufficiently to take meaningful action. I think I see what to do and then as I try to implement it, I remain confused. My...

Saves the results of the successful processing of shared folder synchronization to a DB file through the Log Center. And then we're going to use SQLITE3 built-in synology to re-Script to check. Once a normal BACKUP has been verified, the remote NAS server can be shut down via the SSH...

So i've been using this setup for a long time. Lately my VPN connects normally but I no longer have access to the remote local LAN. I can fix this by editing the Advanced TCP/IPv4 settings and re-checking the "Use default gateway on remote network" However I don't want to use my VPN this way...

Hi I want to push out Drive client installs to some multiple endpoints with as little intervention as possible. Basically use the .msi with a config that has the directories to backup, the schedule and the server details. Does anyone know if this is possible as is there any better...

A recent discussion about powering your NAS off Pajczur: ‘Startup DS220j when scheduled shutdown’ and then Telos: ‘You need a current cert for that? O my!’ got me thinking. My NAS setup has a straight forward OpenVPN connection and 2-step via an Authenticator; both on my iPhone. Supposing I...

Hi there We are a small company and we just started using Synology (DS920+). Some of us would like to have remote access to the files, maybe sometime working from home, and for this reason I used WebDAV to map the drives (we mostly work on MacOS devices) without going every time through DSM. I...

Hi all This is my first post here so be gentle.;) OK let's do it. I have Syno DS 209+II (quite odl I know but serves me well), Asus RT-AC68u router and Transmission Remote GUI on Win 10 system. Problem is that I do not know how to open ports on router? I've tried but result: klick So help is...

I've had a Microsoft Onedrive mapped through FileStation for some time today I found it was no longer accessible, while still displayed selecting it from the folder tree in Filestation just resulted in an endless 'Please wait'. So I disconnected it and attempted to start over through Tools >...

I would like to be able to mount a remote folder (CIFS / SMB), perform an rsync, and dismount the folder. If not all that, at least check if the folder is mounted and mount it if not already mounted. (I've already got the rsync script running.) I have no trouble mounting the folder using the...

I've got 4TB ish of data that needs to be backed up "off site". I've set up a Hyper Backup but its slow and going to take a week or so. In this scenario, I'm in the off site location and I already have a copy of the data - cos we're already doing backups. So, can I create a Hyper Backup using...

Hi there. My last Synology NAS purchase was years ago and I now have a new DS1019+ on order. Hoping everything arrives in a week or so and I can start set up. One of the things I want to achieve is to assign 4 family members with a 1TB folder each that they can read/write access remotely...

Hello all, I seem to be going round in circles. I have been using my BT Home router and its Dynamic DNS service to update my DDNS at No-IP.com. This allows me to utilise various apps (NextCloud, PLEX etc) on my home Synology NAS. I have now moved to my own hosting site and have a...

My team (3 of us) have been grabbing files from my NAS on the road. That works if we all remember to put back the modified files. We have an expensive add on to word that we'd like to use remotely. It is practically too expensive to buy for 3 remote machines. We have a dedicated PC for this...

I am new to my NAS so I am not sure the best way to do this. It isn't a frequent thing but I have approximately 12,000 files that total 75 GB that I need to get to three different people that are located in two different states and a different country. Will the file station share a link...

I have a Synology DS416 with 5 TB of data I'd like to backup. I'd like to use a friend's Synology DS418 as the backup destination. The difficulty is my internet connection is low-bandwidth and capped per-month. It would take about 10 months to backup my 5 TB to my friend's DS418 over the...

I have multiple DS218j nas devices behind a firewall. I have a script that currently runs on all the nas devices to ftp .tif images to a server located behind same firewall. I do not have access to the server other than sending images. They are going to update to using sftp to receive these...

I'm looking for a solution to archive remote mails on synology in a searchable way. I'm thinking to add a rule on the remote mail server to copy a mail but then how can it be stored in the synology server?

I have my Synology 218+ NAS isolated from the outside world on my LAN. The only ways I access my LAN from external sources is via VPN or an Apache Guacamole server, which acts as a RDP client into the various computers on my network. It seems very inefficient that I should have to connect to a...

Adding offsite backup to our setup (will sit in my office at home across town). Would using a DS118 with a single drive be ok? Am I shooting myself in the foot here? Plan to have one other onsite backup on an external drive hooked directly into our primary Synology. Thanks!
