Generate a certificate????!!!!?!?!?
How in the world can one generate a security certificate with this Hunk of Junk! I have a Readynas NV+ 2V (ARM) and it does not have this Frontview that everyone says will generate the certificate....

If you can connect with https then the v2 is creating a self-signed certificate. It might not let you re-create it easily, but it is creating one. The v1 certificate is also self-signed of course. The implication of "self-signed" is that the certificate provides encryption, but it is not useful for authentication.
Did you try the two procedures?
If you access the NAS two ways (say by its IP address and over the internet using ddns) you will need to install the certificate twice.
Note if you use FireFox you can just store the security exception, which is easier.
