Setup
- Ubuntu Server 16.04
Running KVM server - ReadyNAS 3312 (i'm aware this is not the same modle as listed)
Firmware 6.9.4 HOTFIX 1
I have checked that SSH is enabled on the ReadyNAS in the sysem menu and also within the user. issues that i'm having is been able to export the ssh-key form ubuntu and get it imported into the Ready NAS.
Any advise of help with this would be grately apreciated and any other information that might be needed let me know.

Hi Jubin3,
Welcome to the Community!
If you are trying to import the ssh-key to the ReadyNAS, you can follow these steps:
1. Go to Account > Users.
2. Click the User click Settings then under the SSH tab click Import Public Key.
3. Click Browse, then select the public key (Note: The public key must be a text file). Once it is selected, you can just click Upload.
You may also visit this link for the steps.

Re: Rsync over SSH - cannot connect to remote
Hi,
I have gone thought this, but my current issue is not so much imporanting the key but getting a key from Ubuntu 16.04 Server and it does not appear in the dir that is shown in the link. I have logged into SSH on the ReadyNAS and then SSH'd back into my Ubuntu server in the hope this would pull the key but with no sucsess.
Been looking for any information on collecting the SSH key from my Ubuntu Server in sevral differnt ways.
Kind Regards
