Readynas 6.10.9 How to manually update IO::Socket:SSL for Logitech Media Server (or other purposes)
So Netgear have dropped all support for Readynas, leaving us on a poor version of Debian 8 Jessie, which is no longer supported. As of 6.10.10 app install functionality has been removed. I use m...

Jophusmany thanks for this post. I've got zero Linux knowledge and it's been very helpful for me in updating the SSL on my RN212.
Appreciate a pointer here, if you can help. When I get to the perl Makefile.PL command, the following error is returned
Can't open perl script "Makefile.PL": No such file or directory

I am not a linux guru either. I just went through my steps and can see the Makefile.PL
But it looks like a missed a step:
Step 4.5 - change to the newly created directory IO-Socket-SSL-2.083.
cd IO-Socket-SSL-2.083
Then try step 5.

As an aside I have relegated my ReadyNAS to be just a straight NAS. It was becoming too difficult to maintain LMS (now Lyrion) and the CPU on the 316 didn't like transcoding x265 videos.
I bought a 5th gen NUC with 120GB SSG and 8GB RAM for AUD$99. It runs Windows 11 (unsupported but works fine with 24H2). I know Windows and it runs Plex and LMS, with it picking up my music files on the NAS via Windows networking.
Aside, Windows 11 24H2 no longer allows anonymous/no password network access. I have stayed on OS 6.10.9, installed SMB Plus and changed the security setting to ensure access is only granted to network connections which can supply user/pass.
Good luck with trying to maintain Debian 8 ReadyNAS.

Step 4.5 did the trick, many thanks again. It prompted a "Should I do external tests?" question, played safe answered "N" and it worked out ok. Sockets updated and radio streaming again.
