Hi, muad_dib77,
Yeah, the way I use my own ReadyNAS is similar to yours. I think in such not so heavy use, NAS Herder will be very helpful.
Curl is a famous and versatile command line tool for data transferring. I wrote a little in NAS Herder's readme on how to set up this tool in Windows. Originally, I developed NAS Herder's "Ping NAS" and "Shutdown NAS" functions as front-end of Curl. They are still there and work well but somehow limited in comparison with RAIDar Protocol and Internal SSL client which I added later. So, as long as these default functions work well (I was not sure they really do in various environment), Curl is no longer necessary.
