If the NAS is 192.168.123.6 your command on the other side would be:
rsync  --verbose --progress --stats --compress --recursive --times 
--perms --links --delete /Share/ 192.168.123.6::Backup/EdensLandCorp

I run this command and get failed to connect to 192.168.123.6: Connection 
refused. I shouldnt have to open any ports because this is coming across the 
VPN, right?
