RTRR Server - port number has changed unintended

Post by sjwestra »

Hello,

I have 2 QNAP's and I use Hybrid Backup Sync 3 (HBS 3) to backup some folders from QNAP2 (source) to QNAP1 (destination).

Therefore I needed to enable the RTRR service on QNAP1 (destination). The default port number is 8899.

Last night the backup service failed and I discovered a strange reason...the RTRR port number had changed to 38899. Could this have been caused by malware...? Or could it be a security update has changed the default port number...?

After I changed the port number, the backup service ran properly again. Of course I ran Malware Remover several times, it didn't report any malware yet.

Does anyone know why the port number of the RTRR service could have been changed?

Thanks in advance,

SJW
