More Detailed logging please
It would be really useful to access the nfs and smb logs, for trying to troubleshoot permission issues.

Mar 18, 2013Hi everyone
It's been a long time that this thread was opened. I just wanted to add another (very easy) way to enable logging to a remote host on the ReadyNAS NVX Pioneer Edition. The point is: syslog is already there!
As always: Use this mini howto and the links on your own risk!!!
Just follow these steps to enable remote logging:
1. Install EnableRootSSH Addon from netgear site: http://www.readynas.com/?p=4203
2. Stop syslogd
3. Edit /etc/default/syslogd as follows to enable remote logging:
Replace
with
4. Edit /etc/syslog.conf to send all logs to vsyslog syslog collector (FDQN of remote host)
5. Start syslogd
For more info of how to configure syslog: see http://linux.die.net/man/8/sysklogd and http://linux.die.net/man/5/sysklogd
