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 N2200, see Chapter 4: User and

Groups Authentication> Local User Configuration > Add Users.

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> Folder Access

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 N2200 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 N2200 as an Nsync Target

NAS at a remote location backup their files to this N2200. From the System

Network menu, choose the Nsync Target item, and the Nsync Target Server

screen appears.
