NAS102 CLI close down
Hi All, Just installed my first NAS, a 2nd hand NAS102 whixh is near my modem in another room. With WakeMeOnLan.exe I can switch it on remotely with a single click on a CMD shortcut. I canno...
You can configure scheduled shutdowns (and startups) via the power tab in the admin web ui.
If ssh is enabled on the NAS, you can use a utility called putty to send a shutdown command.

I haven't tried using putty for this - so check the manual. But I believe the right windows CLI command would be
putty.exe -ssh -2 -l root -pw nas-admin-password -m c:remote.cmd nas-ip-address
remote.cmd is a file on the PC that has the shutdown command in it. I suggest using rnutil rn_shutdown
You can also do this from the putty gui (there is an option to enter a remote command there also). But it would be easier to script it if you use the putty CLI interface.
Thanks for helping StephenB !
For anyone reading this in the future:
For me the "scheduled shutdowns (and startups) via the power tab" were no option. I want to do it (for now manually) before closing down my pc.
So here is my magic formula (there might be others, this worked for me):
Like Stephen said:
- download Putty, make sure the PATH enviromental is set.
- turn on SSH on the NAS
then make a new shortcut (right click in explorer, new>shortcut) and give it this value:
cmd.exe /c plink -ssh -2 -batch IpAdressToNas -l root -pw YourPassword rnutil rn_shutdown
( off course change the IpAdressToNas (can also be found by WakeMeOnLan) and YourPassword )
then call it CloseNas or something of your liking. Double Click it and the NAS will close.
some explaining:
/c = no terminal window (for testing you can use /k instead)
-ssh = force using SSH
-2 = force SSH V2
-batch = ignore the "press return to start the session"
-l = user
-pw = password :-)
Enjoy
