    It is possible, but would require use of the linux command line interface via ssh.  For instance, the OpenVPN client can be installed on debian linux.

     

    The OS partition on the NAS isn't that large (only 4 GB), so it's best to install packages onto the data volume.  /apps is a mount point to /data/.apps, and that is where ReadyNAS apps are placed.  

     

    Using ssh can have support implications, and of course if you make a mistake you can brick the NAS.  So you should have a full backup of your data before you proceed with this.
