Web access to ReadyNAS NV+ V2 ?
Hi All, Please could someone advise on how to set up access to my own personal web site on my ReadyNAS? I have a shares directory on the ReadyNAS set up with full access on all protocols for ...

I agree that if you can get o the admin page, you should be able to get to the share pages.
Can you access them locally as http://<NAS IP address>/<sharename>? If not, make sure you have HTTP access turned on for the NAS and for the share.

Hi Sandshark / BrianL,
Sorry for delay in reply.
No I cannot see any shares locally using http://<NAS IP address>/<sharename> either. Tried in both ie and Firefox.
It certainly shows a tick in the HTTP box in the "Sharing Protocols" for each of the shares I am trying to reach. I believe http is turned on for the NAS, as in the System overview screen it shows the services and the HTTP box is green.
So unless I am missing something, (which is very likely!), http seems to be fully enabled for the NAS & shares.
My PC in file explorer can see all the shares no problem, but then that is a different protocol.
Regards.

I just realized that mine redirects to HTTPS when I do that, then IE complains about the certificate. Depending on the security settings in your browser, that could be blocking you.

Yes. Though he should be seeing the same message when he uses https://<dns name>/admin
Personally I wouldn't allow http access to the NAS admin interface over the internet. If the V2 won't allow you to require https, I'd block port 80 in the router (and live with the certificate issues).
