#SYNOLOGY DRIVE PORT INSTALL#
Go to Package Center to install WebDAV Server.Log in to the Disk Station Manager or DSM with an account belonging to the administrators group.The authoritative Synology instructions can be found here. In this article we’ll cover getting WebDAV or SFTP up and running and connecting via Strongbox’s built in WebDAV support. This is all the more pressing now with the release of the broken DS File update. Unfortunately there are reports that SMB isn’t very reliable via iOS Files and also suffers from security issues, so using it over the public Internet isn’t recommended.
You can also access your NAS via SFTP/WebDAV using the MacOS version of Strongbox. We always recommend users use either WebDAV or SFTP to sync their databases with their Synology NAS devices as it appears to be a much more reliable method and isn’t prone to getting things out of sync or randomly failing. We continue to recommend the methods below.
Update 13-Sept-2021: We are receiving reports that Synology have now fixed their App. So we would like to make sure everyone is aware of the best way to perform sync with a Synology device. Unfortunately we don’t know exactly what Synology have done here, and there’s little we can do to fix things. It seems that Synology released an update (version 5.15.0 on April 13th 2021) to their DS File App which appears to be problematic for users who use the “Files” method to sync their databases with Strongbox.
