New Transmission add-on thread
The previous thread was very long time to open a new one and prepare the 2.0 :)
Connect to your NAS via CIFS as "admin" user (ReadyNAS admin, not Transmission) and open up \\<yournas>\c\addons-config\Transmission\transmission-daemon . Then view the file settings.json. You're looking for the settings "rpc-username" and "rpc-password".
If you want to change these, DO NOT modify this file. Close it. Then SHUT DOWN the Transmission add-on via Frontview. Then come back here and re-open the file -- it gets overwritten by Transmission when it shuts down. Now you can change these two values to whatever you like.
Also keep in mind that the rpc-password you see is not human readable. If you change the password, it will be encrypted when Transmission next starts up. Which is what you should do once you update and save the settings.json file.
Enjoy!
