Wow, a lot of suggestions.
Then I decided to just move ahead to rsync and forget about cp, but I
couldn't get rsync to see the Synology. I gave up for the time being.
Back to the cp command, I decided to mount the Synology locally, but I
couldn't get mount to see it either:
jjj@Devil-Bonobo:/media/jjj/Movies$ sudo mount -t ext4
192.168.0.101 /media/jjj/Synology/
mount: special device 192.168.0.101 does not exist
jjj@Devil-Bonobo:/media/jjj/Movies$ sudo mount -t ext4
smb://synology.local/synology/ /media/jjj/Synology/
mount: special device smb://synology.local/synology/ does
notexist
I also changed '-t ext4' to '-t cifs,' but got more error messages.
Then I tried df -k, but it didn't see the Synology. Looking at the df
man page I see why - apparently df looks only at the local filesystem.
I note that both rsync and mount are not seeing the Synology. It seems
to me that my big problem is giving the command line the right syntax
to specify it. It's IP address is 192.168.0.101 and Thunar shows it in
the location bar as smb://synology.local/synology/, and in its shortcut
panel Thunar calls it '/synology/ on synology.local.' I've tried all of
those, plus some variations that I thought of, but so far I haven't hit
on the right combination.
If rsync doesn't need it to be mounted locally, then I should just
forget about cp and mounting it. But I still need the proper command
line syntax for rsync to see it.
