What sort of file transfer does the "online provider" support? The
Buffalo is just a Linux box IIRC. I've never gotten inside one but if
it has a native local filesystem (exporting the data via NFS or CIFS)
then you could use rsync, scp, s3sync, duplicity, or any number of
methods to get the data to your provider depending on what transfer
methods they support.

Direct from NAS with the NAS being a Linux device is surely going to
involve something along the lines of what I mention above.
