June 30, 20215 yr Hi, just wondering if it is possible to backup to unraid over the internet? can’t seem to find a definitive answer anywhere? thanks Edited June 30, 20215 yr by GG73
June 30, 20215 yr Because there are too many different ways to accomplish remote access to resources, some safer, some so risky it's a guarantee your server will be hacked, I doubt you will find a guide. Also, mac backups seem to be hit or miss on the LAN, let alone across a WAN, that it may end up being too much hassle. My best advice (others may have better) is to get it working on the LAN, then use a self hosted VPN to extend it to WAN. Unless your server is on a symmetric 1 Gb internet connection it probably won't work well enough anyway.
June 30, 20215 yr Author I’ve never had any issues over LAN in the 6 years I’ve been using it, not sure why other people seem to? not long been using unraid and setting up a vpn is my next task. I have set up a Plex server and windows 10 VM that I’m using remotely via team viewer and both have been working flawlessly. I do have 400mb down 35mb up on my unraid server end and 250 down 100 up on my Mac in the office (this being the machine I want to back up remotely) Edited June 30, 20215 yr by GG73
