SSH connection closed

I've enabled SSH. But every time I log in, the connection is closed. What gives?

  • If you have a problem with the Nas you may be denied support if you have altered things using ssh .
    Perhaps reboot the Nas and the Mac.
    Have you got a pc to try putty?
  • Ah okay I knew that :)
    I rebooted it several times, still doing nothing. More than that when I want to turn off the NAS, it's not always working and I have to do a "hard turn off"...
    I don't have a pc but I have bootcamp, I'll try.
  • Well that worked! And I put the same password...
    Thank you so much!
  • If you have a transmission share, be aware that you should ensure that copy on write is disabled for that share. Netger advises against it.
    Make sure you have a backup.
