[rsync] Can't connect my AS6508T to my QNAP 414J

Post by dstel »

Hello,
On the Asustor AS6508T I have a very simple rsync replication job with the box about crypted replication checked. On the QNAP side, I have the rsync server with rsync account activated.

When I setup the job on the Asustor, it succeed to list the destination directory, so I guess it has a kind of access working. But when I actually do the backup it states an error:

First CASE : connecting to the QNAP specific ssh port (I chose 1022):

Code: Select all

Log file is generate.
ase try again.
rsync: did not see server greeting
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1791) [sender=3.1.3]
Second CASE : connecting to the QNAP administration ssh (22):

Code: Select all

Log file is generate.
e directory /var/services/homes/upload: No such file or directory

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

    #1) Respect the privacy of others.
    #2) Think before you type.
    #3) With great power comes great responsibility.

sudo: a terminal is required to read the password; either use the -S option to read from standard input or configure an askpass helper
sudo: a password is required
rsync: did not see server greeting
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1791) [sender=3.1.3]
So I understand the Asustor try to do a sudo on my QNAP. Why? There is no need to do this in order to forward the rsync port. I will not grant sudo permission if I don't know why and to which action...
