Using a script to mount a MyBookLive using https - wd2go.com

I’m trying (hard) to mirror 2 MyBookLive to have a backup of my data. More complicated, I’d like to have one by my place and another one by my parents (and eventually being able to access the data locally in both locations). Using Carbon Copy Cloner seems to provide the right tool (assuming one drive is the master and the other one the slave which I’m fine with).

My issue is now: how do I test if the destination drive (by my parents) is connected through wd2go.com at the time of the scheduled backup? And if not, how could I mount the drive? There is a shell script execution capability in CCC but is it possible to connect the drive using https in a script instead of going through the website’s homepage? Btw, I’m using a Mac.

Thx,

D.

Not certain if this will be possible on WD 2Go

have you tried FTP?

Thanks Wizer for your input.

I’m a bit reluctant to go through FTP as it doesn’t provide the security level of the https protocole.

Not sure though how I could use CCC with a FTP connection.

Hi, 

I am interested in similar solution as yours. I don’t have any answer for you, but if you do find any solution, 

pleas let me know. I will update here, if I find some solution. 

Thanks.
