The following will guide you through the prerequisite configuration to backup to a Synology NAS device.
|
|
|
|
#. Go to the Synology UI > Control Panel > Shared Folder > select the folder you want to use > Permissions tab > make sure that you have read/write permissions for the user you're going to be logging in as > Save
|
|
|
|
#. Then go to the Synology UI > Control Panel > File Services > SMB Tab > Click the SMB drop down button if it isn't already selected > Ensure that "Enable SMB service" is checked.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Under Advanced Settings on the same dropdown, "Min SMB protocol" was set to SMB2 and "Max SMB protocol set to SMB3" - this may or may not be necessary
|
|
|
|
#. On the same dropdown, under "Note" will be "PC (Windows Explorer): \". This DeviceAddressName is the "Hostname" within the Embassy New Shared Folder dialog, and note that it is case sensitive and that the \ have been removed.
|
|
|
|
#. Go to Synology UI > File Station > navigate so that you can see the the desired destination folder > right click on it > Properties > General Tab, next to Location: will be an folder location of the format ///, the / portion (so without the volume label) is the "Path" within the Embassy New Shared Folder dialog.
|
|
|
|
#. Fill in the Username and Password appropriately for the previously checked user.
