RSYNC Backup job from remote server via WireGuard VPN and with SSH keys

Post by toolix »

As part of a backup, I want to transfer data from a remote server to a local QNAP TS-251+ NAS (firmware 5.0.0.1828). I reach the server via WireGuard VPN, which is supported by the QVPN service (version 3.0.739 build 20210908). For authentication against the server, we use SSH keys.

Using HBS3 Hybrid Backup (version 18.0.1012), I have not yet been able to set up a corresponding RSYNC job.

My preference would be for the backup job to

1. automatically initiate the VPN connection at the beginning,
2. then authenticate to the server using an SSH key,
3. perform the RSYNC data transfer, and
4. finally terminate the VPN connection.

Is this possible with HBS3 oder do I have to bash script this procedure? What would be the best approach and how do I especcially implement the authentication process?
