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!

Can anyone help with this? I have a DS214+ NAS behind a D6200 router. My domain name points to the fixed IP address of my router. Port 5030 is set up on the router to redirect to my NAS, so if I want to access DSM from a WLAN browser I enter https://mydomain.com:5030. All good, I get DSM on...

This is just a little heads up for all who were unaware that there is a TV package for Syno. If your are not a fan of opening up ports to your network or just like TV this might be a solution for you...
