My main storage solution is a Synology diskstation, that has a quite nice backup utility called "Hyper Backup". It supports rsync and WebDAV as backup targets (and some custom synology ones).
I need to get my unraid server running as a backup/failover to keep on working if the diskstation fails for some reason (had a bad PSU once so better safe than sorry - took a week to replace the unit).
I read a lot on this and some other forums on unraid but still am absolutely clueless on how to setup the rsync server on unraid.
The goal is that I can connect to the unraid server (with a dedicated share for backups) and run the "Hyper Backup" sync utility fromy my diskstation.
This is the interface of "Hyper Backup"
I am not sure if unraid ships with rsync or if I have to add it tbh ... but after trying to use the unraid server as a target, it says there is no rsync running.
The only thing I found regarding this issue is this article.
I hope you guys can help me out with this =)
If this works, I would suggest that I summarize this into a tutorial for others with similar issues.
Thanks in advance

PS: The WebDAV route would be a bit messy (afaik) - setting up owncloud as a docker with the /mnt/user/Syno-BKP as the main storage using the "Cloud Sync" utility on synology to sync a specified folder on the NAS to the owncloud instance running on unRAID.
Edit: Would be a nice addition for future updates to integrate these features and their config in the Web GUI. It is time to have an alternative to Synologys DSM (besides Xpenology).
