ZeroTier as a ReadyCloud replacement.
Well, a big part of a replacement, anyway. With ReadyCloud going away, a lot of folks are going to be looking for a replacement in order to have remote access to their ReadyNAS, I have been using...

Sandshark continuing from my other topic đ could you explain where can I download v1.4.0 for arm based one,
I'm not familiar with linux commands, if you don't mind;
Should I setup SSH connection within ReadyNAS web UI and where to enter these commands to install
1.4.0 ?
I've installed nt3 arm version before which has GUI interface but I prefer to install newer version as you mentioned, I hope this request does not inconvenience you đ
Thanks again.

If you enable SSH and connect to the NAS as user root and he admin password, you just issue the commands I listed. Or, you can download the arm64 version from the page XtheUnknown pointed to.

Sandshark I get it and I would like to thank you for the information and guidance you provided here.

...actually I used the armel rather than the arm64 version on my 214, which seemed to work OK (a lot of the other downloadable ReadyNAS apps have .armel file extensions for 10x/2xx systems).
Perhaps Sandshark could advise if there's any importance difference between the two (which are built for different implementations of the ARM architecture).

Sandshark I followed your and XtheUnknown instructions but ZeroTier installation always fails on my RN214 I try both 1.1.14-nt3_armel and 1.4.0
Web UI and SSH rejected the installation which gives architecture error, do I have to have x64 Arm or am I missing something, could you help, any idea?

There is another post regarding that error on other installs, apparently due to a recent change in status of the Debian Jessie distros. I'm currently checking out a new-to-me RN3220 and had no similar problem, but it is an Intel-based unit, not ARM. But I do now have that problem on my main NAS, which is on OS 6.9.6. I guess I got in "just under the wire" in my test install. I don't know if that change is also responsible for users having trouble with the standard curl script attempting to install a newer version than 1.4.0 on Intel systems that's apparently incompatible with the current status of ReadyNAS OS.
I actually didn't try the ReadyNAS-specific versions in my test install, as I really think users should be moving past it. But I suspect it has the same issue as installing with the curl script.
While the ARM-based ReadyNAS are 64-bit, the standard ARM64 distros apparently require a V8 or above ARM, and the ReadyNAS ARM is V7. That means you have to use the armel version, which is 32-bit. But the problem with not being able to download the dependencies is still going to be a problem.
StephenB has already requested a hot fix be distributed that fixes it, and we can only hope Netgear will come through. If they don't, then we can at least hope a user posts instructions "for dummies" to fix it. I'm afraid I'm not that guy, though I have some "sandbox" NAS I can try it on once there is a solution.. My Linux skills are actually pretty basic.
