Connecting ReadyNAS Ultra to remote NUT server
I am trying to get my 2-disk ReadyNAS Ultra (x86) to understand it should connect to a remote UPS NUT server. The ReadyNAS can do this already, as long as there is another ReadyNAS it should connect...

Well the UPS is connected to a small headless server, where the NUT server is also running.
I'd then like to get the ReadyNAS built-in software to connect as a client to that NUT server, but the only thing I can configure is the IP address by the check box named "Enable monitoring of UPS physically attached to a remote ReadyNAS" (on the Power tab of the System pane)
The reason for this setup is simply that the ReadyNAS NUT version is way old and doesn't recognise the UPS, whereas the latest version of NUT does recognise the UPS.
So, running NUT on the headless server works well, and the ReadyNAS (and some other devices) will then connect as clients to the NUT server.
So it's not connecting to the NAS that is the problem, but rather connecting FROM the NAS..
