Crashplan Headless
I have been all over these forums, google, etc trying to figure this out. I have a ReadyNas Pro 6. Crashplan Pro has been installed via the instructions provided in this forum. That part went fine ...

telnet to the NAS doesn't work for me either, but I connect ok to Crashplan without it. I am not sure if something is off in the Crashplan instructions, or if it is something on the NAS.
netstat -an | grep LISTEN | grep 42 on my setup is close to yours but not identical:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:4242 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:4243 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
You can open a CrashPlan support case (though their support is a bit overwhelmed at the moment, so don't expect an immediate reply).
You could also look in /usr/local/crashplan/log, and try to sort what is happening from the log files.
BTW, Crashplan recently updated their product to 3.2. My initial install was the older 3.0.3 - it appears to have auto-updated (both on the NAS and Windows), though I am wondering if your issue is unique to new headless installs on 3.2. If you raise a support case with them, you might note that possibility.
