How to login using SSH, Telnet, Putty ?

How do I login to my NAS using Putty? It should be supporting the SSH protocol? If it needs the ssh protocol added, how does it get executed without having it to start with....?
Thx ??

    It's installed via Frontview (web-admin interface of the ReadyNAS)

    Go to System > Update > Local

  • before anyone starts to answer, i think i found it :D :D :D
  • what device do you have?
    you should be very careful about installing and upgrading apt packages, some of them can cause problems with the customised built-in packages.

    now i am so far that i have the installsite, but the installed php5 is to old to make it work.
