* can not edit my original post above
Debian should never have been picked for a nas product, a better longterm solution would have been Fedora! which is a free spin off from redhat! a class of operating system made for the business
"netduma" seems to make nice UI's, like Synology.. theres no excuse for the readynas community to be left in the dark like this, "netduma" may be a gaming router focused team/ project, but it's teams could be moved to help make the business class of devices better. no excuse! none

importent things like adding an ip allusion are missing, when you do manage to add another ip address to your one ethernet nic, you find port 80 and port 443 are all taken up by "apache2" on every ip address unless you edit a core file with in "apache2" to only use the ports on the ip address you specify.
why you might ask did i need another ip address and those ports free from all ip address apart from the one im using to manage my readynas, well i wanted a a lancache server
look up lancachenet.
if the basic options were with in the web UI i wouldn't have needed to enter ssh and ask for support from the freenode ~~linux-help and ~~networking community, cause let me tell you phone support and chat were useless here! ive had to use docker to install lancache cause its not in the readynass app store...
after getting it working its been up for almost a year and is working great! I could see readynas being so much better than it currently is! its a mess at the moment, out dated mess, no other words for it!
