Hello Lugs,
I've recently re-installed everything on my home server and now can't connect with Grsync* from my wife's (18.x Mint KDE) PC. Mine (Mint 19.1 Cinnamon) works fine with essentially the same command (different source and destinations). On mine a dialog box pops up asking for the password for the destination. On hers it doesn't it just fails and the error message says it can't make a directory (which it can't without the password). So how do I make it ask for a password?
She is a 'user' on the destination device and I did chmod 0777 on her /home/username/Backup directory so it should be available.
*GUI for Rsync. Typing it all out by hand doesn't work either.
