Thank you I will look at that
The dropbear definitely did something. before I installed it, the Synology backup was not able to connect to the NSA310. Directly after installing dropbear, the Synology backup connected with no problem.
I now have a separate issue while installing the Samba upgrade, but I will create a separate thread for that.

Did you exchange the repo url in the MetaRepository webinterface? It should handle all for you.

Ahhhh. Thank you. I was being very stupid. I was replacing the url in the web_prefix file
OK all sorted and backup is now working on the NSA325-V2 Thank you soooooooo much😁
OK so for idiots like me, this is what to do . . .
How to configure a an NSA325-V2 to act as an rsync target to back up a Synology NAS
- Install the Mijzelf amazing wonderful repository 😊
To do this . . .
Make a txt file and put the following url in it
http://zyxel.diskstation.eu/Users/Mijzelf/zypkg-repo/
save it as "web_prefix" and make sure there is no file extention (no.txt)
log into the Zxel nas on your web browser as admin
go to Sharing - Shares
Select the the admin Share and click on the Share Browser icon at the top
click on the zy-pkgs folder icon to go into that folder
Click on the Upload icon and upload the web_prefix file you just made
Click close button at the bottom
Go to Firmware/Packages and click on the Package tab
Click on the Retrieve List from internet icon
The MetaRepositary package should appear
Click on the line and click the Install/Upgrade icon to install it
When it is installed the status should say "Enabled"
Click on the Retrieve List from internet icon again
You should now see a list of packages - Install Dropbear from the list of packages that appeared
- Install BackupPlanner
To do this . . .
Find the MetaRepository Package in the list
Click on the Http:// link you can see on the end of that line
find this line ftp://ftp2.zyxel.com/+
replace it with this line http://zyxel.diskstation.eu/Users/Mijzelf/zypkg-repo/fw4_stock_packages/
Click the Apply button
Go back to the packages list
Click on the Retrieve List from internet icon
Select the BackupPlanner package
Click on Install/Upgrade to install it - That's it. All done. (I had to reboot the NSA325-V2 before the Synology NAS could connect)
- If it works, celebrate with the drink of your choice :)
Some notes on the Synology side. I used Synology's Hyper Backup. For some reason I had to choose the "single version" option. I couldn't get it to work using the "multiple versions" option, I will look into that some day. I selected rsync-compatible server, entered the IP and login credentials, Transfer encryption off, and then the storage volume of the Zyxel should appear in the dropdown for "Backup Module"
Once again thank you Mijzelf.

find this line
http://zyxel.diskstation.eu/Users/Mijzelf/zypkg-repo/fw4/ Mijzelf
replace it with this line
http://zyxel.diskstation.eu/Users/Mijzelf/zypkg-repo/fw4_stock_packages/
Wrong. The idea was to exchange the line ftp://ftp2.zyxel.com/+, which points to the (for the NSA series) not working stock repository. Now your MetaRepository still tries to read the ZyXEL repo, and doesn't read my repo anymore.
