With no IO::Socket::SSL version reported - I am assuming it is not
installed.
I'm not familiar with ReadyNAS system but you have a Duo v1 and the
thread I referenced was for a Duo V2. 
Bottom line - I think it would probably need development skills to get
the necessary TLS/SSL support.

As others have suggested, I think the easiest low-cost way to have a
pain free LMS System would to setup a plain "vanilla" Raspberry Pi 
(i.e. no additional hardware) .

The Raspberry Pi would costs about $/€/£ 35 - 45 for either Pi3 or P4
2Gb .  A Pi4 bundle (board , case, power, SDcard , cable)  would be
about $/€/£ 70.
The simplest installation would involve using burning Picoreplayer
(PCP)) to an SDcard and thenconfigure it over ethernet (I beleiev this
is possible so nop need for keyboard or HDMI monitor).  There are may
users of this setup and lots of advice.

The ReadyNAS would remain as your file store - do nothing with the
files.  The Pi would be configured to access the NAS similar to your
Windows systems. PCP is RAM based so it tolerates "bad" treatment and
takes effort to break it.

The performance will be much better and pcp has a good Browser interface
so changes and upgrades are not technical and no CLI.
