SSH and SMB service not starting anymore
Dear community, After installing the add-on Log-Analyzer my RN10200 started to have some issues as I was not able to see the shares via Samba anymore. I tried logging in via SSH to see what's wro...

You would have to go folder by folder and read all the folders it is complaining about and chown the permissions back to root instead of guest. It's tedius but eventually you can get it all started again.

How full is the OS partition? Another possibility could be filling that. It's 4GB so if you put stuff on there that shouldn't be there it can fill fast.

Dear mdgm,
Thank you for the hint. Unfortunately the system disk is not full. 808MB used and 3.0GB available.
Thank you

Can you send me the logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig)?

Dear mdgm,
When I put back the original harddrives in the RN102 it updated the firmware to the most current one since I had this firmware installed on my testharddrive. This fixed the SMB service somehow.
However, SSH is still broken and the logs also suggest that it is caused by the wrong permissions:
May 27 21:54:28 Keksbox systemd[1]: Unit ssh.service entered failed state.
May 27 21:54:28 Keksbox systemd[1]: ssh.service holdoff time over, scheduling restart.
May 27 21:54:28 Keksbox sshd[4153]: /var/run/sshd must be owned by root and not group or world-writable.What is the best way to fix this :?
I send you the full logs.
Thank you for the help!

That's odd. As that file is stored in RAM. Odd that it would get the wrong ownership/permissions.
Which apps have you installed on this system?
Have you installed other packages?
I didn't receive the logs, can you try sending them again?
