Hi Baxter,
if you forward the https port (443) to Your NAS and the try to access Your WAN IP via https the request is forwarded to the NAS. To switch on https access on the NAS go in the N5200 admin menu to Network->Services and enable https access. Then it should work.

Yes, You cann access the files via http or https (of course You have to enbale that - see above) - but file access is not possible with the admin account. You have to login in the web interface with a user account and then - depending on the user rights you are able to access the files.

Hi Baxter,
Do You mean viewing via the internet from outside ?
If Yes, then the best way would be to build up a VPN between the remote machine and Your LAN - the Zywall is able to do that. Then the remote PC is handled like a local one and also the access to the NAS.

PS : some remark to Your setup - I personally have disabled the configuration pages for my Zywall from the outside - just for security reasons

Hi Peter,

Must be afternoon on your side i think.

not realy - I live in Austria

What i was thinking first, was to automaticaly stream the Files. I mean like i click a moviefile on the HTTPS and it starts a Stream, instead of downloading it. This would give me the opportunity to access the files without any prerequisite, like a VPN Software.

For that you need a streaming server on the NAS and some special web pages.

X This would leave the only question open: Is it possible to hide Folders on Web&FTP access to users, which dont have rights at all to them?

No, thats not possible.
For FTP exists a module FTPACCESS, which hides folders, but starting with FW 2.00.01 every reboot resets everything to the original behaviour.

Hi Baxter,
sorry - no experience with the Zywall Software - I do it in a different way.
I have a linux server running - using now mainly as backup device for the N5200 - there runs an openvpn server and my clients have the openvpn clients installed. So I connect all my clients to this openvpn server via port forwarding in the Zywall.
