    [HELP] Properly backing up a QNAP TS-639

    Backing up a QNAP Good feedback on the FreeNAS Rsync. If I didn't need a domain controller, I'd be doing the same. I'm STILL waiting for QNAP's response on this (maybe you guys can help). /etc/rsyncd.conf file now has "log file = /path/logfile.txt" But the only thing generated in the...

    [HELP] Properly backing up a QNAP TS-639

    I don't have another QNAP, I have a Windows server. As for Retrospec, I'll give that a try. I have no idea why Backup Exec is always doing full. But like I said, doesn't matter if I do date based or archive bit - just seems to ignore it. Almost like if it doesn't have a BE agent, some of...

    TS-639 Pro Reviewed

    It arrived (Part 2 of 2) Overall impression: Tons of features, Easy to setup, GUI could be better. This unit has a lot of features. Setup of shares, joining Windows domain, and creating iSCSI LUNs are literally seconds of work each. Although the GUI isn't very "sexy", its actually...
