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 I used your instructions in message 30 of this thread to install 1.6.6 over 1.2.12 on a 6.10.8 NAS314 . It seems to have upgraded successfully and functions as normal, but I have two concerns. One, I did not have to answer any prompts; Two, the zerotier web interface still reports this NAS as 1.2.12. Looking at the info below, is there any reason to think the upgrade failed?

Try disconnecting and re-connecting to see if ZeroTier Central then sees your new version.
You didn't have to answer any questions because you already had all of the dependencies installed.
Thanks. I think the web interface just doesn't update that data very often at all. Disconnect/reconnect didn't change it. I also removed the identity files to get a new device ID and now it's showing 0.0.0, so whatever.
- You may have installed two copies. Believe they installed in two different directories. So not an upgrade. Uninstall the old version first.
I ran both apt list --installed and dpkg -l earlier this morning. They returned only one installed zerotier at 1.6.6. I was going to reinstall anyway but I got pulled away for a while. When I got back ZT web interface had updated and is now showing 1.6.6 for both my local NAS which I changed device IDs on and my remote NAS which I was limited to only upgrading so I didn't lose connection. Thanks for helping me verify things.
I'm assuming you updated a version other than a ReadyNAS-specific one (nt1 version) since I don't believe there ever was a ReadyNAS-specific V1.2.12. Because the ReadyNAS version installs in /apps instead of the usual place for Linux, updating from it to a standard release is a bad idea. Looks like all is well for you, but I'm adding this for the benefit of others.
