Today I couldn't connect to the NAS throug the ReadyCloud. It was reported as offline. But it was on the Network. I connected as admin and found that the Cloud switch was turned off. Much worse all readycloud users except my own have disapeared.
This makes me very very unhappy - how secure is the system ? How is it possible that these crucial data got lost ?

The community is abuzz about this problem. Current theory is that ReadyOS has unregistered ReadyCLOUD users and deleted cloud user home folders on NASes in response to a server outage related to ReadyCLOUD user credentials. Best to take a deep breath before doing anything else.
If you only want to use ReadyCLOUD again and don't care about data loss in a cloud user home folder on a NAS, access the local GUI with the local admin user and reactivate ReadyCLOUD. Otherwise:

Luckily I am not using the home folders for my cloud users. But what to do with those deleted cloud users. Will they get restored? Do I need to do something? What about all the data on my NAS linked to the cloud users. Can I add cloud users via ssh?
