Setting up ReadyCLOUD on ReadyNAS Account permission issues

Hi Everyone,

 

When I try to setup ReadyCloud on our new ReadyNAS it says a local user account with the same username already exists use a different account. I want to use the account I am trying to set up, already a ReadyCLOUD account,  and not make the local accout a cloud account because of Egynte sync permissions. 

 

Any suggestions on ways around this issue?

 

Thanks in Advance!

Unfortunately, there is no simple work-around.  Netgear has chosen that a ReadyCloud user and a local user cannot be the same.  They must have separate logins and separate home shares.

 

The only other option is to go a different route for remote access, using a VPN instead of ReadyCloud.
