Transmission Setup on the ReadyNAS NV+/Duo:

Thanks for the guide, it's what I used to install it. Thought i'd just post up exactly what I did in a mini-guide as it seems a bit simpler not using the SSH route.

This is how I installed Transmission 2.11, using CIFS/SMB. I am on a ReadyNAS NV+ (x86) on the RAIDiator 4.1.6 firmware.

How to install Transmission
Open a browser:
1. Log in to FrontView ("https://IP-address-of-nas")
2. It will ask for your username & password, enter them.
3. Navigate to System -> Update -> Local tab - Choose File
4. Select the "Transmission_x.xx.bin" file you just downloaded
5. Click "Upload & verify image"
6. It will take a moment, then click "Perform System Update"
7. Navigate to Services -> Installed Add-ons then scroll down to the new "Transmission" entry and un-tick the box
8. Click Save

Open Windows Explorer (Or whatever you use to browse folders on your computer):
9. Go to the root directory of your NAS (If you havn't done this before/don't know how to - read the section "To access the root directory of your NAS:" further down)
8. Navigate to /addons-config/Transmission/transmission-daemon/
9. Create a copy of settings.json (I called mine settingsBACKUP.json)
10. Edit settings.json (I use Notepad++ for this) and edit the settings as necessary
11. If you changed the rpc-password you must also change it in /addons-config/Transmission/transtop.sh & transtart.sh

Open a browser:
12. Log in to FrontView again
13. Navigate to Services -> Installed Add-ons then scroll down to Transmission and tick the box

An explanation of all the options in settings.json can be found at: http://www.readynas.com/contributed/super-poussin/Transmission-Parameters.htm

To access the root directory of your NAS:
Open a browser
1. Log in to FrontView
2. Navigate to Security -> Security Mode
3. Select "User" and wait a minute or so, then close the browser.
4. Open a cmd prompt (Windows Key + R, then type cmd and hit Enter)
5. type "net use t: \\ip.address.of.nas\c /user:admin"
It should say "The command completed successfully."

Now you will have the root of your NAS accessible from My Computer.

If you are looking to access Transmission from outside of your network, you will need to take note/change the rcp-port in settings.json and make sure that port is open/redirects traffic to your NAS via your router.
