Transmission Setup on the ReadyNAS NV+/Duo:
Preface: I wasn't able to find this all in one place, and I ran into a few snags here and there (Nothing a quick google wouldn't cure) I assume the x86 installer would be similar, but I don't have...
Hi everyone.
Great post on the setup instructions. I seem to be running into two issues regardless of what I do. My setup is as follows. ReadyNas Ultra 4, RAIDiator 4.2.15 and Transmission 2.14(b) (x86)
I followed the instructions up until I needed to SSH into the NAS, then I hit issue #1:
#1. When I use putty to SSH into the ReadyNAS, it asks for my username. I type admin, then hit enter. Afterwards, it asks for my password. I enter my password and hit enter. At this point, Putty just quits as if it was closed. Retried a few times with the same outcome. So I modified the files using the CIFS access method. Is SSH not enabled? Why does it keep quitting?
Once the config files were modified. I tried to launch transmission and hit issue #2.
#2. trying to restart the Transmission add-on, i check the box and hit save, the NAS pops up a window saying that "Transmission Failed To Start". However, the green "led" on the right hand of the add-on pane is on and the check mark stays. If I refresh the screen (using the refresh button at the top of the FrontView), the box is now unchecked, but the green "led" is still on. If I restart the NAS, its off again.
I would greatly appreciate any input/ideas/solutions.
Thank you...

Solution to ISSUE #1.
I was doing a little bit of research and came up with the solution to why putty would suddenly quit when trying to access the NAS using SSH.
When logging in to the NAS, do not use admin/password, instead, use root/password. This will grant you access to the ROOT of your NAS.
