Hello,
I'm trying to setup an rsync task. The task should pull from a remote Linux server. The Linux server use the rrsync script to restrict rsync access. It usualy work very well!
Because I use rrsync, I use "/" as remote path. rrsync translate that into my real directory on my Linux server.
First thing, when I create the rsync task with that remote path, it complains the remote path cannot be found. I unchecked the checkbox to disable the validation in order to be able to create the rule.
Then, I try to run the task from the web GUI. It fails silently.
So, I open the /etc/crontab file on my FreeNAS box to see what it is doing and try to replicate manually on the command line.
Seem like there is a double escaping on the remote path and this is being translated as a double slash on the remote host.
If I replace
But I cannot just change the crontab manually, because the change would be eventually lost. How can I fix my problem using the web GUI?
Thank you!
