Hello,

I am trying to run a backup task using Rsync from my FreeNAS server to our QNAP server.
I have enabled the rsync server on the QNAP and set up a rsync user account to have the write permissions on the QNAP server. That seems to be pretty straight forward.

On the FreeNAS side (11.2 U5) I have created the rsync user that I will be using, giving it access to the dataset I need to back up and then set up an rsync task.
I've followed the guide online for that.
My task looks like that:

However when I start the task I am getting no log in my /var/log/rsync.log file
I did catch how the task was called and manually launch it to see if I could get more info and I am getting this:

root@A11[/mnt/Main]# /usr/local/bin/python3 /usr/local/www/freenasUI/tools/runnow.py -t rsync -i 1
lockf: cannot open /mnt/Main/A11/: Permission denied

My user "phuketmymac" has the permissions on that dataset. I've "su" into this user and tried to access the folder and I was able to browse the content.
Why would the rsync task lock the folder which is the dataset?
Is there anything wrong in my task setup?

Thanks!

Nope!

I've decided to create a jail with FreeBSD and run my rsnapshot to run my backups.
I have mounted the dataset inside the jail and connected the NFS share from the QNAP and that's working great like that.
