NAS that allows cloud access and backup to remote duov1
I have a Readynas duo v1. I would like to setup Dropbox like features and readynas remote is missing some important features for the average user in our office. I bought a great program for the ipa...
There is also Ajaxplorer which has apps available for iOS, Android and PC. It's also configurable and accessible via a standard web browser. It also accepts (and can be forced to accept only) SSL connections. Best of all it's available on the Duo.
I can't vouch for the desktop app because I've never used it. But the iOS app works fine for me. It serves as a replacement for me for ReadyNAS Remote (due to the former's limited functionality, and ongoing issues).
It's not the easiest thing in the world to set up, and does have prerequisites (PHP being one), but once it is set up, it works. You can also specify permissions for individual users derived on the server app. It doesn't link accounts made within to ReadyNAS accounts tho, however you can still integrate those home shares with Ajaxplorer accounts with a bit of fiddling.
The current add-on in the Sparc add-ons section isn't as up-to-date as the x86 version. Since Super-Poussin no longer has a Sparc NAS (his died), you may not be able to get an update for it. However, if the version that is available supports in-app updates, this won't matter so much. I know the later 4.x versions do, just can't remember which version that was implemented in.
[EDIT:] Just checked the Ajaxplorer website. Automatic updates were introduced in 4.0. The current stable release is 4.2.3. The add-on for Sparc NASes can be found here.
Another alternative to consider.
