My MacMini is wired to my Synology rt2600ac Router, which has a 1TB Ext HDD atteched to it's USB. I backup all my Macs to this drive using Time Machine.
So now I've been trying to backup the Mint Partition on my MacMini to this ext HDD using 'rsync' but keep failing to connect to tthe HDD attched to the router.
sps@spsMacMini ~ $ sudo rsync /home/sps/ *********@192.168.1.1:22/ubshare1-2/Mint
**********@192.168.1.1's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226) [sender=3.1.1]
I'm using the router password, but it doesn't seem to work. It's the only PW I use to access/control the router.
Kinda out of my depth...

I did have rsync working to my synology (got a DS216) but it stopped working, think it was after I did an update on the NAS. Had the NAS mounted as a share in fstab. I've collected a few bookmarks on rsync and synology which might be worth following up. Haven't had the time or inclination to get it working, but will at some point:
