Sounds like you are trying to login to SSH as the admin user rather than the root user.
If you have SSH enabled and have logged in as 'root' you can run e.g.
# df -h
# df -i

So it looks like the root filesystem is full:
#df /
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on

By using the du command.
e.g.
# du -csh /var/*
# du -csh /var/log/*Note the df commands I provided in my previous post were to check for two different ways that the 4GB root partition may be full. Almost always it would be full one way, but not the other. There would be a different approach that would need to be taken if all the inodes were used up.

Thanks for your help! I found what was taking up the space. It was tmp. So i deleted some of the tmp files and restarted the NAS. Now, i can't connect via ssh (get connection refused). Not sure how to even get to it now without SSH. Is there a console that i can connect through?
