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 N0503, see Chapter 4: User and
Groups Authentication> 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
Chapter 4: Storage management> Shore Folder>
Control List (ACL).
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 N0503 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.

Designating N0503 as an Nsync Target

The N0503 can act as an Nsync server, enabling another Nsync-equipped Thecus
NAS at a remote location backup their files to this N0503. From the System
Network menu, choose the Nsync Target item, and the Nsync Target Server
screen appears.
