Free SSL Certificate for your NAS
Hi there,
If you are using web applications on your ReadyNas most likely you will use HTTPS and therefore SSL Certificate. If you don't feel like paying few $ for it you might wanna try http://www.startssl.com/. They offer 1 year for free. It's only 10-15 minutes from the moment you issue certificate to the moment when you have it running on nas.
I don't have anything to do with smartssl and this is not an advertisement.

- tfierens1AspirantHi,
Do you have a step by step guide on how to install such a certificate on the readynas? Note that I don't know much about unix, pretty much nothing, but not afraid to try but I'd like to by a cert from such a company or the likes of godaddy.com but I just don't have a clue on how to do it and I don't see any options in netgear's web
Admin module.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
T. - bbaraniecLuminaryHi,
Sphardy has written pretty good step by step: https://sphardy.com/web/readynas/instal ... -readynas/
I was considering godaddy my self. I've found a site with SSL Certificates comparision where I found about smartssl.
Unfortunately Netgear does not provide such option via web interface so you need to try installation via SSH.
