ReadyNAS apps - how to download the Debian packages?
Hello, everybody!
Just as a precaution: how do I download the Debian packages for ReadyNAS applications in case Netgear discontinues access to the repository? Running OS 6.10.8 / x86.
I tried the link on Netgear's site, but it takes me nowhere. The package that I am most interested in is shell-in-a-box (shellinabox.deb).
Any ideas how to locate it for download of the .deb file?

Just to answer my own question.
In the past, there was a link to download Debian packages from Netgear. That link does not work anymore.
A workaround could be to install the application on your OS6 machine and then to scavenge directory
/var/cache/apt/archives/for Debian files.
Not the orthodox way, but seems to work.
