[rdiff-backup-users] Rdiff-backup and Synology DS-101j

[SOULfly_B]

Hello,

I've tried to backup data using rdiff-backup on a Synology DS-101j (NAS 
linux)... but without success.

First, i tried to do with a samba share mounted locally (mount -t cifs ...), 
but i've this error :
address@hidden soulfly15]#

Then i tried to mount the drive using sshfs, but this failed too :

At this point, I'm a bit lost. I'm using 1.1.9 version of rdiff-backup and 
Python 2.4.3.

Thank you for your help.
