I’m looking for a way in Plasma to backup and sync my data from PC to a LAN Samba share on my NAS, using a GUI program.
The many sync apps (Grsync, Unison, Lucky, RealTime, Kup etc.) I’ve tried over many years, don’t let me set a remote/samba target. Most navigate locally only. I would mount the share, but nobody I’ve found knows of a GUI way to permanently mount it.
Everything else I need on Plasma has a GUI solution. Just a sync fails. I’d be grateful to hear of a GUI solution
The shares are on a WD-MyCloud 4Tb off the shelf NAS. With setup page via a browser.
I’ve never found a GUI way to permanently mount a share. I hope someone develops one.
RcloneBrowser doesn’t achieve any more than Dolphin and is not designed for normal users. I’ll be trying smb4k again. But it has not been reliable in past attempts.
Backup needs to be something straight forward for non IT users. There are real benefits to all, if more people use Linux and increase the market share. More drivers and applications for example. I find it strange that this is missing from Plasma.
