Oops - typo in my message. It should be *Set storage resource 'FDStorageAddress=<public FQDN of DIR/SD host>'
Which is what actually have but wrote it here wrong.☹️ I'm not aware of NAT reflection being set in the router; no such option that I can find. I can't see sending local backup data out and back is an issue since the data is encrypted but anyway it's set up now as you suggested so moot. -Chris- On Thu, 27 Jun 2024, 15:19 Bill Arlofski, <w...@protonmail.com> wrote: > On 6/27/24 2:54 AM, Chris Wilkinson wrote: > > I made the additional changes you suggested. > > > > *Removed FD port open on remote router > > *Set storage resource 'Address=<local address of SD host>' > > *Set storage resource 'FDStorageAddress=<public FQDN of remote site>' > > > > I re-tested local and remote backups and these seem to be working fine. > > Excellent! \o/ > > Next up....
