Cannote connect to Frontview remotely after hostname change

I have finally got my Duo back into a useable state by doing an OS re-install. It still will not load 4.1.14 but that's another issue.

The shares are accessible both locally and remotely, but I cannot get into Frontview from the remote client. I am fairly sure that it is because Remote is expecting a hostname of NAS whereas it is actually ReadyNAS. Can I change this somewhere in the Remote application please? I am reluctant to change the hostname now everything seems to be working again.

    Hello,

    Not sure if the host name should have an effect. Might it be the browser that you are using? Especially IE with internet security set to high will have problems with the certificate for the secure connection.

    Bye,
