Forum Discussion
ZeroTier and the ReadyNAS
NASTools mentions in the Apps sub-forum that he is looking into an app for ZeroTier. I started a small tangent discussion and thought it better to move it to its own thread. I. too, have been lo...
There are updated versions of ZeroTier at https://github.com/didyouexpectthat/zerotierone/releases, but no UI support. :)
Without the UI support, meaning you have to go to SSH to control it, you are better off installing it via SSH as well, since you then don't have to wait for the App to be updated after the base Linux install is updated.
Unfortunately, I don't think the person who did the update realized that there never was an official Linux UI. NASTools used the one from the Windows install. Maybe there is some reason that won't work any longer, but the new developer didn't mention it.

Not only did the dev put it in the release notes, he responded to you on NAStools' package explaining this.
From https://github.com/didyouexpectthat/zerotierone/releases/tag/readynas%2F1.2.4-nt1-RC1
The releases notes:There is no UI since ZeroTier no longer produces one in a format that is copyable. They currently produce an Objective-C one for Mac and a C++ one for Windows. Using this package currently requires you tot use SSH and running zerotier-cli commands. Notice: If you upgrade from NAStools's last package, you can manually stop and restart the App using the Admin Page and you will be on 1.2.4 and your previously joined networks will persist. I will try to work with ZeroTier on getting a Linux UI.
Thanks for letting me know he responded. I wonder why GitHub didn't let me know. Maybe I should check the SPAM bucket.
this thread is the win! thanks to sandshark for posting it.
Also I am somewhat confused, if starting from scratch now, would we go with zerotier script, NASTools releases, or this 'didyouexpectthat' fork of nastools?
What would be the differences ? the UI ?
Also, are we to understand that didyouexpectthat is a random internet person with no association with this forum and/or netgear, a forum member, or someone close to netgear but prefers to remain anonymous?
