    As far as I know the firmware doesn't support this. But if you are a bit comfortable with scripting, the package RandomTools has a rsyncd binary, and a directory where you can put start scripts. As far as I know the rsync daemon needs a file /etc/rsyncd.conf, which path cannot be changed. As /etc is on a ramdrive, the startscript should also copy the conf file to there (or create a symlink)
  • Thanks a lot MiJzelf, 
  • Great, but how to install RandomTools?
