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 🙂 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 😐
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).

armel is 32 bit (but of course can run on a 64 bit machine), arm64 is 64 bit.
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.
