    Download from FTP server to Synology NAS

    How can I log into an FTP server from the NAS and download files from the FTP server to the NAS. I'd greatly prefer a GUI over a command line interface. Are there any FTP client applications for the DS718+ NAS? Thank you, Andrew

    Linux noob, move command syntax

    I created a new set of directories and a few test files. The mv command worked just fine. I can only surmise that it was the large number of files that caused the issue. I'll be doing this again, so I'd really like to find out how to move over 100k files at a time. Anyway, the following...

    Linux noob, move command syntax

    Thanks. No special characters or spaces. I'm issuing the command in Task Scheduler. I've tried it both as root and alindsay (an admin). The router is new. I'll have to learn how to execute code from the command line. I haven't tried that yet.

    Linux noob, move command syntax

    No. That didn't do it either. Could it be because I have dashes or underscores in the directory names? To not show my client's name, I removed that part of the directory name in my initial post. The shared directory is actually "AuditType-Audits_ClientName-Client".

    Linux noob, move command syntax

    I need to move over 100k files from each of several directories. Select-all + drag-and-drop sometimes fails. I'd prefer to set a task, but for some reason I can't get the move command to work. What am I doing wrong (see examples below). I'm tying to move the files from the "13" directory up...

    Produce list of files (Linux ls command help)

    Thanks! It looks like our posts crossed. Is there a way to suppress outputting the directories?

    Produce list of files (Linux ls command help)

    UPDATE: Against my better judgement, I ran the following code. find /volume1/Fagan_General > /volume1/Output/filesfolders.txt It output the following: /volume1/Fagan_General /volume1/Fagan_General/@eaDir /volume1/Fagan_General/@eaDir/@tmp /volume1/Fagan_General/#recycle...

    Produce list of files (Linux ls command help)

    My apologies if I wasn't clear. I'm trying to output the list to a file, as shown in the sample "ls" command I've tried. That command gets me results, but I'm thinking I should be able to get it closer to the example output I provided. When I say, "more like the following", this is the...

    Produce list of files (Linux ls command help)

    This doesn't make sense to me. I'm trying to list files in a directory, not find them. Please elaborate on how this helps me. Thank you.

    Produce list of files (Linux ls command help)

    I'm not very familiar with Linux commands and need some help in producing the kind of list I need. My directory structure is as follows: Fagan_NAS_01 (root) Fagan_General (directory) #recycle (directory) list (directory) TossMe (directory) testfile.txt (file) testfile.txt (file) Output...

    Suggestions for a Small Business NAS - Minimum Requirements Provided

    Thank you. I'm learning a lot. Yes, virtualization isn't needed. It's a nice-to-have. Even if used, it wouldn't be used extensively or often. It would only be used for installing and running some tests with various reporting systems on a Linux or Windows base. Top performance wouldn't be...
