I have managed to get Crashplan running on my NV+ v2 and can backup across my network from 9 out of 10 PCs. The PC which will not back up is the one that I used to set CP up on the ReadyNAS. I can PuTTY into the NAS from it with root access, I can edit the CP settings and access the headless CP on the NAS and when I change the settings back I can access the CP desktop on the PC. I can telnet to the NAS from it
The problem is that when I try to activate the backup on this PC the NAS is greyed out in Computers and when I attempt to connect, I get a 'waiting for connection' message. I have made sure the PC firewall is allowing ports 4242 and 4243 as well as Crashplan (the same as I have done on the other PCs) but still I cannot connect.
Has anyone any ideas what might be causing this?
