Add Crashplan client
Have been testing Crashplan (http://www.crashplan.com) on my laptop - pretty slick. Crashplan has a Linux client, so I suppose someone (not me) could get it running on the readynas? Anyone tried...
I tried the procedure this evening that dkerr outlines, and this does indeed work. I configured my Ultra4 to backup to my MacBookPro and vice versa. When my friend gets CP installed onto his computer, I will be backing up my ReadyNAS to his computer. I also just tried backing up the ReadyNAS to CrashPlan Central and can confirm that backups and restores work from there.
Some things to note:
1. From dkerr's steps, "3) execute "apt update"" - this should be 'apt-get update'
2. If you're using a Mac to remotely manage the Crashplan instance on your ReadyNAS, you'll need to edit /Users/<my user>/Library/Application Support/CrashPlan/ui.properties
Read the documention in /usr/local/crashplan/doc (or wherever you told the installer to dump the documentation at) on how to configure ssh local port forwarding. When you've finished setting up the crashplan instance on the ReadyNAS, don't forget to revert your addition to the ui.properties file so that subsequent invocations of Crashplan will be for your local machine.
Many many thanks to dkerr for his earlier instructions.
