      Hello,

      I have a pfsense and a local QNAP, that will replicate via rsync to an external QNAP.
      My pfsense is totally open, i dont have any rule beside the original ones.
      In port check, i can connect to my external QNAP via ddns, with port 873 (rsync default), but then in my QNAP i cannot, it always give me an error.
      I tried to connect to our external QNAP with another client QNAP, and no error is given, so, it is a problem with the pfsense.

      Note: i can connect to our external QNAP using ddns:8080, so, is something with the port 873 and the pfsense.

      I really need help with this.

      Thanks!
      Jorge Silva

        Are you running any filter packages like squid or Suricata?

        Try to check the remote port on pfSense by using Diagnostics > Test Port.

          With the original rules, the system defaults to being totally closed.

          I tried to connect to our external QNAP with another client QNAP, and no error is given, so, it is a problem with the pfsense.

          It's a problem with your configuration. If you want Rsync to be open to the Internet, you must create a NAT port forward and point tcp 873 to the ip of your QNap. e.g.-
          WAN TCP * * WAN address 873 192.168.x.y 873 rsync to qnap
