Crashplan 3.6.3 on Synology

q: I've followed SCOTT HANSELMAN's plan to install the CrashPlan package on my Synology, but now I want to upgrade to 3.6.3.

a: Keep in mind CrashPlan support will tell you this configuration is unsupported, but have a great article about it all the same.  http://pcloadletter.co.uk/2012/01/30/crashplan-syno-package/

Download the 3.6.3 package Synology:

The customer had updated their client from 3.5.3 to 3.6.3 and it stopped backing up to their Synology.
This article walks through updating to 3.6.3 - essentially just download the SPK and selected manual install from package center and it did the rest.

Now the 3.5.3 and 3.6.3 clients all seem to connect and backup to the Synology.
