I've purchased the 'Western Digital MyBook Live 2TB Personal Cloud Storage'. It supports NAS. I am trying to setup automatic backups. (Something like rysnc which may run daily to backup my /home folder.
I found this thread giving the instruction:
sudo apt-get install pyNeighborhood
This is from 2010. I am getting the error
Unable to locate package pyNeighborhood
I don't want to risk corrupting my Ubuntu 16.04 desktop. Is there a similar package that is suitable?
16.04 mount backup nas

If I'm not wrong, you can browser content of network disk "out-of-the-box" in Ubuntu, e.g., via samba [CTRL+L in nautilus and put in address bar
smb://hostname (or IP)]. The same can be obtained with afp, sshfs.
If you want to use it as backup I recommend some of the "supported" programs. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem
I want to use rsync

I guess to use rsync you will have to have network disk always mounted (or at least at the time rsync is executed). In order to achieve this see: askubuntu.com/questions/420455/⦠and ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2219544

Just based on your Unable to locate package pyNeighborhood error, something's wrong since the pyneighborhood package is still in the Ubuntu repositories for trusty, xenial, artful, and bionic.
Do you have a regular Ubuntu software source (in /etc/apt/sources or /etc/apt/sources.list.d/) and have you done an apt-get update before attempting install? It should work.
It was case sensitive! sudo apt install pyneighborhood

There's that too, I use Synaptic so there's very little typing required. Or if using apt-get it can tab-complete packages & commands, so that's another double-check.
