Root Access

I am in need of root access to my Readynas. It's the SSH add-on the only option? I need to change my default upload limit for PHP.

    On an OS6 NAS go to System > Settings > Services and enable SSH.

    On a legacy ReadyNAS you will need to install the EnableRootSSH add-on.

    Any way you get root access has the same support implications.

    No, just CLI

    Pydio (Ajaxplorer on legacy systems) is a GUI file access program that can be used to perform edits on many system .php and .conf files.
