Always use root when logging in with ssh.
You might consider using rnutil -rn_shutdown for the NAS. Rnutil will shut down readynasd first, and then shut down the system.

Hi,
you are the best, now it work. Now the batch is this
putty.exe admin@192.168.10.96 -pw ZxxxxxxxxxZ -m c:\poweroff\ReadyNAS.txt
in the file c:\poweroff\ReadyNAS.txt there is the grace shutdown(no hypen need before rn_shutdown)
rnutil rn_shutdown
This upgrade os6.10.0 is fantastic: web screen very clear and simple to use, there is the hotfix automatic, iscsi work well and finally encryption (the key manage with usb key is very easy).
Thanks a lot for you precious collaboration

Though it doesn't seem to matter for this particular command, in general you should always log in as root when you use ssh. There are cases where running commands as admin can do damage to the OS partition (for instance, mis-setting file ownership and permissions).
