Is port 22 (the ssh one) open on the NAS?
And if so, are both sshd (the ssh daemon) and rsync (cq rsyncd) available there?
PS: rsync normally uses ssh to connect to the remote system to start a copy of ssh in server mode (unless rsyncd is already running there, then it can just connect TO it):
Quote:
It is also possible to use rsync without a remote shell as the transport. In this case you will directly connect to a remote rsync daemon, typically using TCP port 873. (This obviously requires the daemon to be running on the remote system, so refer to the STARTING AN RSYNC DAEMON TO ACCEPT CONNECTIONS section below for information on that.)
You get the error on port 22, so it is trying to connect through a remote shell as the transport.
That remote shell can be either ssh(d) - port 22 - or rsh - port 513
Is sshd (the ssh server daemon) installed and running on the target computer?
It is not a computer, a NAS (Network Attached Storage is a set of disks with firmware that form a mini network accessable system. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network-attached_storage for more info.
