Workaround for ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH problem for Sparc NAS (4.1.x firmware)
This workaround eliminates the redirection of http://nas-name-or-ip/admin to https://nas-name-or-ip/admin for NAS running 4.1.x firmware. It does require ssh to install.

StephenB Thanks.
I have heard you explain this before, but it finally landed. Yes, the branding / model / versioning really took me off the rails. Lesson learned for anyone in marketing.
I have a ReadyNAS314 and Ready316 that are still working for me so I think it is time to say goodbye to the NV+V1(NOT V3). I can not expose this old unit. Too risky.
A very gracious thank you again Stephen for all of your many contributions. You rock.
PS. I do need another NAS unit. Any pointers to a good discussion forum for new brands / models to buy? Netgear? Synology? Buffalo? Qnap?

If you can't use that NVS unit any more--I still can since I block my NAS units from anything but LAN access and don't worry about the browser messages. It would be great with the other NVS unit I rescued. 🙂
As far as other nas units, it depends on what you want to do. If you want reliable plain jane NAS, as you know the Readynas line does a fine job. If you want reliable NAS, but with the ability to do other things, both synology and qnap have made a solid name for themselves with their solid products and you can't go wrong with either of them. Just stay on top of security with them because with their popularity they are the number one ransomware targets and almost any bug gets exploited very quickly. (Another reason I don't let any of my NAS units touch the Internet and vice versa.)
Hope this helps!
