File Manager inside Readynas
It would be nice to be able to do file manipulations directly inside ReadyNAS GUI. We have millions of files on our ReadyNAS that come from security cameras and it takes hours to delete them over L...

ajaxbrowser and AjaXplorer seem very similar; probably either one would work. (I think ajax is ideal since most of the fancy processing is done on the client-side, taking load off the NAS.)
@looter:
The only major requirement for AjaXplorer is PHP.
I basically followed the ReadyNAS PHP HowTo, then followed that up with the personal webserver HowTo. I set up a dedicated share for AjaXplorer (you can call it "ajaxplorer" or "mycoolfiles" or whatever you want).
Then you replace the test index.html (from the personal webserver howto) with the entire contents extracted from the AjaXplorer zip file. Then you have to adjust permissions on the files until apache is able to read the files (log in via SH and use the chmod command, or maybe you can do it through an FTP client).
Read the file /files/INSTALL-SelectMeAndClickEdit.txt that comes with AjaXplorer, and it will help you with basic configuration.
Search the forum for more hints if necessary, or post again here.
The only thing I'm still worried about is: how good is the authentication/login thingy and how to make it very secure before opening my firewall. I need to read up some more on that...
