N-Sync Setup
N-Sync is a replication utility based on the rsync tool. Like rsync, N-Sync’s client-server
architecture makes replication of files and folders easier from local share to remote share and
vice versa (from source to destination).
You can, as administrator, enable or disable the switch for the N-Sync server to choose to
export N-Sync modules to clients. You can also choose to replicate shares immediately or via
scheduler.
N-Sync setup features four utilities -
Server, Client, Scheduler and N-Sync log .
Server
An N-Sync server exports shared modules to the remote N-Sync client for replication through
the rsync protocol.
• Enable : Enables the N-Sync Server. (Only
the server which is enabled will be shown in
the N-Sync client list.)
• Disable : Disables N-Sync Server.
• Name : Share name of the system exported
by N-Sync server.
• Path : Share path of the system.
• Comment : Description for the shared
folder.
• Read only : If checked, allows export as
read-only module to the remote N-Sync cli-
ent.
• Update : Click to update all changes.
• Cancel : Click to cancel all changes.
Client
An N-Sync client is an rsync based utility that allows the administrator to replicate files/fold-
ers between local share and remote N-Sync share.
Before you can make any changes, you must
log in:
• Server Name : Select the required N-Sync
server from the drop-down box.
• Server Password : Enter the server adminis-
trator “nasroot” password.
• Login : Click to connect to the selected N-
Sync server.
The following parameters will be displayed:
• Server Name : Displays the remote N-Sync
server to which the system is currently con-
nected.
• IP Address : Displays the IP address of the remote N-Sync server.
