Hello,

I am using dirvish for backup of a Synology for about a week now. It is no 
problem to use dirvish in the normal way.

You have to activate the ssh server and the network backup service on the 
synology, that starts the rsyncd. Then I created the ssh-keys for root on the 
dirvish server and transfered the pub part to the synology for ssh to work 
(.ssh/authorized_keys). Try to connect to the synology.

After that, it is a normal dirvish client ;-)

I also tried to use a rsyncd - module in rsyncd.conf, but the rsyncd on the 
synology is somehow manipulated and it does not work. Google did only find 
other people having the same problem, but no solution to it. I did not want to 
install another rsync on the synology, so I stay using ssh.

With best regards,

Dirk Melchers
