offsite backup from webserver/uberspace via rsync?

[raph]

Hey guys,

i want to make an automatic offsite backup from my webserver (uberspace.de) via ssh onto my freenas.

How can i set this or equivalent up and running on Freenas 9.2 ?
alternatives are: here.

i dont understand how to set it up with rsync or is there another way?

thanks in advance

Best solution most likely for you would be RSync, go ahead and read through the FreeNAS manual pages regarding RSync and it's functionalities and see if that is what you are looking for an if it is the optimal solution for your backup requirements: http://doc.freenas.org/index.php/Rsync

There are lots of guides out there that can be applied for rsync.. http://www.tecmint.com/rsync-local-remote-file-synchronization-commands/

Thank you, I'll give a read at it.
I try to understand from the freenas wiki documents, and setted the rsync module, but didn't understand if I need or not set a rsync task too because it seems to me that DeltaCopy works even without setting it!
Probably I need to set it just in case I need to use rsync over ssh right?
