Readyclooud Login - says doesn't recognise either email or password.
ReadyCloud login fails with "email and password not recognised." I see this has been an issue before - is anyone else having the same problem at present?

So Readycloud is no more (I never received advance notification), how do I SYNC files between my NAS and connected PC's???

If you need to sync remotely, you can add in an inbound VPN. OpenVPN is built into my Orbi router, and I use that for remote access. ZeroTier is another option.

Thank you. Free file Sync does the job nicely.
I shall look into Open VPN and ZeroTier too.
Do you know of any route/service which would allow me to give access to known individuals to remotely view Pictures stored on my NAS? (I used to send ReadyCloud Links out for this?
Thanks Again.

A simple option is to move them to google drive or icloud and then send a link from there. That is an extra step, but could be ok if you don't do this all that often.
You could also install something like owncloud or nextcloud. But I don't recommend installing a lot of packages on the NAS, as that is getting harder now that Debian 8 has been archived. so instead put it on an always-on PC that has the photo share mounted as a PC drive letter.
Pwigo might be another possibility for you.
