can not save configuration
OS 6.9.4, Linux 18.04, Firefox Quantum
Recently I decided to update my backed up settings configurations for the above drives.
I could not. I pressed Settings>Configuration Backup>Download config...
Have you enabled admin access through HTTP (rather than just HTTPS)? I find it odd that it's trying to access via Port 80, when it should be 443 for HTTPS. Maybe a bug when you have made that selection?
Thanks all for the replies.
It worked before in firefox - I was just updating config files especially in light of a recent disk failue (2 year warranty left).
I always log in as a user. Have always had both http and https.
I tried Chrome today. The first time - no problem.
But the second time it came up Not a private connection. I went round this using Advanced and Allow.
Odd that I've never had these problems before.
Thanks for the Chrome suggestion - should have tried it myself.

Chrome will do that, and there is no good workaround (other than what you did). It's because the NAS uses a self-signed certificate.
FWIW, Firefox downloads the configuration settings on my system (currently running 6.9.3).
Thanks StephenB,
I'll recheck my security settings in Firefox.
Happy Christmas to all,
David
