I've been searching around for a while now to find the answer myself, but I am very confused.
There's a lot of information regarding sharing your data to where ever you are, but there is very little information regarding backup from outside in to the NAS.
Is there an easy "Out Of The Box" way to do remote backup to a private ReadyNAS?

A DNS address, and some encryption ideally (Rsync+SSH) should be about it shouldn't it? (To put it very basically)
You'll get better help with more info though. What ReadyNAS do you have, what other OS's (Windows XP/Vista/7/Linux?) How critical and sensitive is the data? What is your connection speed like over the internet?
Just done a very quick search on here, This "might" get you started and give you a few clues. Though I admit I have not read the full contents of the threads. viewtopic.php?f=4&t=56499
