Install RAIDar on Mac OS Catalina
Hi, I am trying to recover an old Readynas. But prior to that, I need to install Raidar as you know already (on a Mac OS 10.15.7 Catalina). So I am downloading the installer dmg from https://...

Why? I'm not seeing what that will accomplish for you.
- Well, I just thought that it would be necessary for the initial set up. I will check later today.
By the way, I've tried the same on other not Mac machine and I cannot get rid of that validation error. Does raidar even work at all?Yea RAIDar is not mandatory and I will be dammed if I ever install Java just for this application :)

When you say "recover" - are you trying of recover data? Or just put the Ultra back into service? If you are putting it back into service, then you should consider converting it to OS-6. We can give you more info on how to do that if you choose to go forward.
One issue you will run into is that new versions of MacOS won't let you connect to the Ultra with SMB. That's because the 4.2.x firmware only supports SMB 1/CIFS - which is being deprecated by both Microsoft and Windows. You'll need to use AFP. OS 6 (among other benefits) supports SMB 3.
Thank you StephenB . I have several systems, I just tried Mac because I thought it would be easier - but my main OS is linux.
I managed to contact as you suggested via browser. The NAS is accessible easily via DLNA from my media server, but I still have some issues.
I am comfortable using ftp commands, thus I have enabled it for file sharing. Somehow it does not work, even when I have set my share to read/write mode:
lftp 192.168.68.105:/media/1x03/9bb009e17edf6db8bb9b2208c231f0e3.tmp> mv My-Serie.S01E03.WEB-DL.480p.H264.mp4 ../S01/ mmv: Access failed: 550 Rename ../My-Serie.S01E03.WEB-DL.480p.H264.mp4: Permission denied mmv: 1 error detected mmv: 0 files moved
How can I enable renaming rights in my share?
