### On the Synology
-1. Setup port forwarding and associated dynamic dns, if applicable. Many good guides online for this.
-2. Setup ssh key based authentication with the Synology for each computer you want to sync with it. You want a specific key that is used only by git-annex, for each computer. Again, many good guides online.
