I forgot my admin password for my netgear readynas and did not setup password recovery when I installed. We have a whole lots of data in the server and I am a bit scare to do the hard reset. I have saved the password in Cyberduck in one of the computer in the network, so I can login with the root password using cyberduck. So, I think it is best if I can retrieve the password from CyberDuck, unfortunately, I don't know how.

If anyone know, please, kindly help.

Thank you in advance

You can use SmartFTP:

We discovered that SmartFTP, a shareware FTP client comes with an independent password recovery tool supporting 14 different types of FTP client software which are Core FTP, CuteFTP, Cyberduck, FFFTP, FileZilla, FireFTP, FlashFXP, FTPRush, FTP Voyager, FTP EXpert, PuTTY, Total Commander, WinSCP and WS_FTP. Unlike SmartFTP, the password recovery tool is actually free and portable which can be found in the program’s directory as the filename PasswordRecovery.exe after installation.

Do take note that although the SmartFTP password recovery tool is portable, it has some dependencies like msvcp140.dll, vcruntime140.dll, mfc140u.dll, etc. You can use third party tools such as Dependency Walker to scan for the required files and make sure that they are stored at the same location as the password recovery tool.
