DSM-G600, DNS-3xx and NSA-220 Hack Forum

Hi there,

after finally having successfully set up a backup from one disk to another in my dns-323 using rsync, I now want to create a scheduled backup from my PC to the NAS using cygwin rsync, as outlined in http://dns323.kood.org/howto:backup_-_pc .
I created the rsyncd.conf file and the rsyncd.secrets file in ffp/etc, the secrets file c:\cygwin\etc and the batch file, all formated correctly, user access rights set correctly and modified accordingly. The rsync deamon runs, according to the ffp.log. When I run the batch file however, only a "Current" file, a "LastBkpDate.dat" file (which is updated each time I run the batch file) and a "snapshot.log" file (which remains empty) are created on the NAS, but no backup data folder is created whatsoever...
Oh, and I also added the cygwin path to the windows environment path variable, in case. And I'm using Windows 7 64 bit, if that makes any difference...

Here are the scripts:


======================rsyncd.conf start============================

# /ffp/etc/rsyncd.conf configuration file
max connections = 2
secrets file = /ffp/etc/rsyncd.secrets

use chroot = false
read only = yes
list = false
strict modes = false
# Deny access to all hosts just to be on the safe side
hosts deny = *
timeout = 600
dont compress = *.gz *.tgz *.zip *.z *.rpm *.deb *.iso *.bz2 *.tbz
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid

[PCBackup]
        comment = Primary Backup Location for PC1
        # Allow access to local hosts
        hosts allow = 192.168.1.0/24
        read only = false
        gid = users
        uid = maks
        auth users = maks
        path = /mnt/HD_a2/Backup_PC

======================rsyncd.conf end============================




======================Backup.dat start============================

@ echo off

Rem Keep Things Tidy; establish local variables
setlocal

Rem Establish name or IP Addr of DNS323
set DNS323Name=dlink-73A664

Rem Establish name of Backup folder on DNS323
set BackUpFolder=Backup_PC

Rem Establish RSync User Name

Rem Establish RSync Name

Rem Set Source Path
Rem Back up a single directory or drive by identifying the source path as /cygdrive/c or /cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Documents
Rem The path = /cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Documents looks a little odd. This is Cygwin convention for defining Windows paths from within a *nix emulator
set srcpath='/cygdrive/d/_documents'

Rem Back up multiple directories by surrounding a list with single quotes (i.e., srcpath='/cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Documents /cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Contacts')
Rem set srcpath='/cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Contacts /cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Documents /cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Favorites /cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Pictures /cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Videos /cygdrive/c/Users/UserName/Wav'

Rem Establish DOS backup file path
set DOSBackUpPath=\\%DNS323Name%\%VolumeName%\%BackUpFolder%

Rem Establish Cygwin backup file path
set CygwinBackUpPath=//%DNS323Name%/%VolumeName%/%BackUpFolder%

Rem Using todays date establish name of backup directory

REM Obtain date of last backup
Rem NOTE: The usebackq attribute is required; it specifies that the new semantics are in force, where a back quoted string is executed
Rem              as a command and a single quoted string is a literal string command and allows the use of double quotes to quote file names in filenameset.
for /F "usebackq tokens=*" %%i in ("%CygwinBackUpPath%/LastBkpDate.dat") do set LastBkpDir=%%i

Rem Establish rsync module name
set modulename=%UserName%@%DNS323Name%::%RSyncModuleName%/%BkpDir%

Rem Perform rsync backup
C:\Cygwin\bin\rsync.exe -arivx -z --link-dest=/%LastBkpDir% --password-file=c:\cygwin\etc\secret %srcpath% %modulename% >> %CygwinBackUpPath%/snapshot.log

Rem Save name of current backup directory; information is required next time batchfile runs
echo %BkpDir% > %DOSBackUpPath%\LastBkpDate.dat


Rem Delete shortcut to Previous Backup Directory
if exist %DOSBackUpPath%\Current.lnk C:\cygwin\bin\rm %CygwinBackUpPath%/current.lnk

Rem Change drive/directory and create shortcut to Current Backup Directory
C:\cygwin\bin\ln -s %BkpDir% %CygwinBackUpPath%/Current

Rem Clean up variables then exit

======================Backup.dat end============================


Any idea  what I am doing wrong, or what the problem might be?

Thanks in advance,
Marek
