Can't login to Synology 214Play from Acrosync for Mac 1.6 build 427

ianq
in Acrosync for Mac
Might be something stupid I am doing (or not doing), but cannot login in to my Synology NAS from Acrosync.

I can log in to the NAS from everywhere else: Finder, terminal using either telnet or ssh, using admin, but not from this app.

I think I have the permissions set up properly on the NAS as I can log in from elsewhere.

Any ideas? Thx...Ian

    It is not a login problem.  You already logged into your NAS when you could run the rsync command.

    Just make sure that you the permission to write your home directory.

    I am getting these errors when I try to select a remote directory, I never get a list of directories.

    Then I can't see what or where I need to change settings, the admin user has permissions for all folders, as admin, and using ssh from a terminal I can get right into the admin's home directory (volume1/homes/admin), and have no problems accessing it from OSX Finder as admin.

    What am I missing?

    Can you try using root rather than admin as the user name?  Synology and QNAP always run their own versions of ssh servers for some reason.

    Using root gives the same problem and messages when trying to get the remote directory listing.

    Is there something I should be setting up on the DS214Play in order to have this work?

    Okay, found the problem with a little digging on the internet. 

     In DSM 5.1 there is a setting under Backup & Replication/Backup Services in the Control Panel to enable network backup service. Without this enabled, you would need to add a path setting to the rsync command such as "--rsync-path=/usr/syno/bin/rsync. I confirmed this by doing command line rsyncs from a terminal to the DS214Play.

    So finally can test out acrosync now that it sees my NAS app...

    You're right.  My synology DS214se was running DSM 5.0 and the 'Network Backup Server' option didn't seem to matter.  But after I upgraded to DSM 5.1 this option has to be enabled for the remote browsing to work.
