Forgive my ignorance if I'm wrong (I've never used a Mac) but to me that sounds as if you entering the wrong command, hence 'command not found' rather than some sort of message telling you the IP address is wrong.
A quick google turned up this information for SSHing on a Mac - once again, I have never used a Mac so I can't verify this is correct, but it looks correct to me. That plus this might have been what you were doing, in which case I have no idea... the site that I got this information from did mention creating a '.ssh' directory, but I don't know where that comes into this, hence I haven't noted it here. For those who are curious, my source was http://www.panix.com/help/sw.macosx-ssh.html, merely the first Google result.
With a terminal window open, type this command:
ssh -l root readynasip
where 'readynasip' is the IP address of your ReadyNAS. 'root' is the username you're logging in under, as the 'root' user has full access.
You'll then be prompted for your password, which will be the same as what the password for the 'admin' login was when you enabled SSH access - if you've changed your 'admin' password since then, the 'root' password will be the old admin one.
As many have already pointed out in this thread and others, accessing and making changes to your NAS as the 'root' user is serious business - don't play with anything you don't understand, as you can do serious, irreparable damage to your NAS.
Good luck :)
