How to ssh into your Iomega StorCenter ix4-200d


This tutorial uses an unsupported feature of the IOMEGA Storcenter ix4-200d. It worked for me but use it at your own risk! I undertand it works (but still isn't unsupported by IOMEGA) on the ix2 Storcenter as well.
Tutorial tested on IOMEGA Storcenter ix4-200d firmware 3.1.14.995
This post is extracted from a previous post (how to install crashplan on Iomega storcenter). I am planning more tutorials on the Iomega storcenter ix4 and wanted centralize this part in case it needs to evolve with future firmwares...


1. Enable SSH on the NAS
Go to
http://your-nas-adress/diagnostics.html
click "enable SSH"
on older firware versions, I understand an equivalent page could be found at:
http://your-nas-adress/support.html

If the admin password of the NAS is "pass" the root password to use in ssh is sohopass.(thanks http://planetkris.com/2010/05/iomega-storcenter-ix2-ssh-email-notifications-and-busybox-init-d)

      Over in the FTP setup, you have the checkbox set for SFTP.
      Clear that and you'll be able to turn on SSH (They're the same daemon and use that port...)

    version 3.3.2.29829 (or something like that) - this no longer works. With "Security" turned on, nothing works. With "Security" turned off (and turning it off deletes all users and groups), root/soho works. But once you turn security back on again, it stops working!

    the password is soho

    eg: you made admin / password
    login with root / sohopassword

    The SSH setting was moved to the manage page of your NAS.
