Ubuntu rsync to synology: IP denied

rsyncsynologyUbuntu

I am trying to sync my (new) Ubuntu webserver directory to my Synology NAS.

Network backup is enabled, when I do a dry run:

rsync --dry-run . rsync://root@192.168.1.150

It shows the available modules.

When I try to sync with rsync it fails with the message:

@ERROR: host is denied to login

Syncing is done with this script:

#!/bin/bash
RSYNC="/usr/bin/rsync -a --delete"
export RSYNC_PASSWORD=MyPasswrd
rsync -avz -t --timeout=1200 /var/www/ root@192.168.1.150::NetBackup/web/var/www/

All directories are tested. This worked on my previous Ubuntu server (10.04)

/var/log/rsyncd.log:

UPDATE

My database server, same Ubuntu version, installed as a second server together with my webserver is using the same script:

#backup the tables to NAS
RSYNC="/usr/bin/rsync -a --delete"
export RSYNC_PASSWORD=MyPasswrd
rsync -avz -t  --timeout=1200 /home/user/backup/mysql/ root@192.168.1.150::NetBackup/mysqldb/

And this works flawlessly…

UPDATE 2*

with verbose (-v)

Best Answer

Sounds like that IP has been banned for some reason, (too many bad password attempts?).

You could try changing the ip to verify, if that's easy to do in your case.
