More Detailed logging please
It would be really useful to access the nfs and smb logs, for trying to troubleshoot permission issues.
I'm not expert here but I have managed to get syslog running thanks to the previous posts. I followed these steps:
1. Download APT Add-on from http://www.readynas.com/?page_id=617
2. Enable ssh root access
3. Run apt-get update.
4. Run apt-get install syslog-ng
5. Edit /etc/default/syslog-ng to remove hash before CONSOLE_LOG_LEVEL=0 and KERNEL_RINGBUF_SIZE
6. Run /etc/init.d/syslog-ng start
7. Edit /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf removing hash before udp(); and changing use_dns(no); to use_dns(yes);
8. run /etc/init.d/syslog-ng restart
That's it it should be working now. To test
1. Run tail -f /var/log/syslog
2. On a second machine run nc -w0 -u 192.168.7.254 514 <<< "testing again from my home machine" replacing the ip address for you nas device's
Good luck. Remember if your not sure then I wouldn't recommend it. Also please keep in mind that NETGEAR may deny support if you’ve enabled root access
