OK I have set up the webserver as follows

Name: Music
Path: /mnt/WD Mount/

everything else is left as default

I have downloaded cygwin, and the rsync 'module', but I am now at a loss as what to do?, something in the cl? what should I be typing in?
Just want to back up at my convenience, no schedule,

And hello too...

Perhaps you can clarify what you expect to do with the RSYNC function of your NAS.
