RTRR from SMB to local is incorrectly implemented

[KernelBoy]

Please excuse me beforehand, for this is my first post.

My hardware:

• TS-251, 4.3.3.0238
  Two HDDs as "static simple"

The Problem:
I have discovered a bug in how the Backup Station tries to synchronize a remote SMB share with a local folder.
Synchronization was failing with a log message like this:

Invalid first path in pair [/mnt/RTRR_CIFS/10.0.1.2/Music, Music].

The path was indeed incorrectly created by the "Backup Station". Through ssh, I was able to see that, instead of the expected path, the folder mounted for the SMB remote was using the path

/mnt/RTRR_CIFS/10.0.1.2/*user*/Music

Note that it was creating a directory "*user*" (which was the name of my SMB username) and inside, the folder Music was mounted.

I manually created the folder "/mnt/RTRR_CIFS/10.0.1.2/Music" and mounted my SMB share with:

Code: Select all

mount -t cifs //10.0.1.2/Music /mnt/RTRR_CIFS/10.0.1.2/Music -o username=*user*

After this, I was able to run the RTRR synchronization job successfully.

Could you please advice if this is a known bug or if I did something wrong?
