Now for the source side of things: 1. In the xpenology box, load the dashboard/web interface --> mainmenu/backup and replication.2. click "backup destination"3. click "create"4. pick "network destination / rsync compatible" then NEXT5. Name it something you'll understand ... in my case: "data share on Amahi"6. IP address (self explanatory)7. user: kevin8. password: theuserpassword9. backup module: datashare (if you made 4 modules like I did, all 4 are available for selection as backup targets)10. hit APPLY. If it doesn't work, check the user and passwords.11. Do the other modules in the same manner

1. click "backup" , then "create", then "data backup task"2. select the folders to backup (pick one with little data or a test folder to make sure it works)3. select one of the backup destinations you just created and hit NEXT4. name the task, say "backup of data to Amahi"5. name the directory on the Amahi share where the backup is going6. side note: here's where it got interesting. if I leave metadata and thumbnails selected or unselected and I have "kevin" as the user, it works fine. If I have "rsync" as the user with admin permission (as when I was experimenting with the setup) and have the above 2 things selected, the files came over with protections. I couldn't delete some folders of the test run (I think the metadata ones). I'd have to chmod them to be able to delete them. When I deselected them they were deletable. Someone better than me at this can tell me why. Anyhow, I can't see why you'd really need it, so deselect them and give it a shot.7. then hit APPLY
