Readynas Duo (SPARC), unable to delete files in Windows
I have a Netgear Duo, and I use Win7 32-bit. When authenticated as Admin, I am unable to delete files from Windows Explorer*. The web interface to /shares doesn't have the file management page anymore...

It looks like you have WebDav enabled for the share. Try turning that off via the https://nasip/admin url. Select shares on the left, then click on the https icon next to your share. Uncheck the "Enable WebDAV support" control and click apply. That should get you back to the usual web interface.
You can also try resetting the file/folder owners and permissions by clicking on the "advanced options" tab. Set the owners and permissions the way you want them (I use "nobody" and "nogroup" and read/write for everything). check the "Set ownership and permission for existing..." box and the "Grant rename and delete privilege..." box, and then click apply on the bottom left. The checkbox next to "set ownership" will clear. After a bit there will be a pop-up indicating that the permissions have all been reset.
