ReadyNAS & Frontview - Certificate Error
I have had my ReadyNAS NV+ v2 for about a week now. When I hooked it up it was assigned an IP address of 10.0.0.9. Shortly after I got it running I had need to change the IP adddress to 10.0.0.50. No...

The IP address is 10.0.0.50, but the certificate was created when the IP address was 10.0.0.9. As I stated above, this mismatch can be overcome by re-creating the security exception (the same way you did when you originally connected to the box).
I went through this a while ago when I reset my router to use 10.0.0.x addresses instead of 192.168.1.x. Although I could have re-created the certificate on the pro, I didn't. All I did was tell the browser to make a permanent exception (this was with firefox). There is a procedure posted for IE9 here: viewtopic.php?t=59164#p348054

Give it a try and let me know if it works for you too.
