How to configure a ReadyNAS appliance for remote access?
A ReadyNAS appliance requires some unique steps to allow remote access to the Squeezebox Server database. The steps are listed below:
1. The first problem is getting ssh access to the ReadyNas. To do that, you'll need to install ToggleSSH and EnableRootSSH add-ins. You can download these by choosing your ReadyNAS config at http://www.readynas.com/?page_id=93 and then using System/Update/Local from your ReadyNAS admin panel to install them.
2. SSH in to your ReadyNAS and comment out 'bind-address = [% bindAddress %] in /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/MySQL/my.tt.
3. Comment out skip-networking in /etc/mysql/my.cnf
4. Reboot the NAS (recycling the service may not be enough).
5. Use the TEST button in the Remote Server Options screen. ACC will try various connect methods and use and store the one that is succesful.
