    Ideally, you'd get a firmware update from your NAS vendor that removes the Flash Player dependency.

     

    Short of that, you'll need to use the Enterprise Enablement features to allow the UI for your NAS on your Intranet.

    You might want to think about making a VM that's dedicated to administering your NAS that has a build of Flash and a browser that will run it, as most browsers will be dropping support for browser plug-ins in upcoming releases.

    dear jeromiec83223024,

     

    the solution you are offering me according to the guide does not work. And that doesn't seem to be due to a mistake on my part, as I've read about the problem on several websites. Apparently it doesn't work as described in the guide

    The feature definitely works.  You're going to need to be more descriptive if you'd like help. 

     

    This article has a good rundown.  It might be more helpful:
