Hey
I´m trying to set up a Cron Job in a jail on a Freenas server which runs Rclone and dumps backup files to Google Drive (offsite backup) and wanted to check if anyone at STH is a Cron Job pro (i'm more of a nix hobbyist) and knows how to automate this task. I'll explain what i've already done
1) Create jail on the freenas server and do a pkg install rclone (Done)
2) mount a fileshare i want to backup and expose those to the jail (Done)
3) set up a Cron Job in the jail which runs Rclone and dumps the backup files to Google Drive.
First step completed (pkg install rclone)
I´ve mounted a fileshare on the Freenas server to the jail (files called testfile.txt and textfile2.txt are now visable in the jail from the Freenas fileshare).
Needed to make my own client_id to be able to use rclone with Google drive (authentication).
I´ve connected to Google drive from the Jail , now i need to set up a Cron Job in the jail which runs Rclone and dumps the backup files to Google Drive.
Any clever ideas ?
