NAS326 - setting up FTP over TLS

KenG

Hi Guys

I'd like to use Filezilla to log into my NAS326 from outside using the more secure "explicit FTP over TLS" rather than "plain FTP". On my old NAS325 I think I did this by self certification - but how do I do this on the 326?

Help Please (I am a complete amateur!)?

Doesn't it work on a 326?

Sadly, I don't think so - the instructions suggest I can but then go on as follows:

Step1

Create a Certificate Signing Request

Step2

Download the Certificate Signing Request to your local computer

Step3

Submit the downloaded certificate signing request to certain CA

Step4

Get the signed certificate from this CA

Step5

Import The Signed Certificate

- I think this means I have to pay a CA for certification?

Thanks for any help, it's appeciated

I suppose you can use a self signed certificate. The 325 did so, and maybe the self generation is disabled because browsers don't accept self signed certificates anymore without user interaction.
