SSH on My Book Live

MyBookLiveUser 09 Dec 2010 16:04

Open Mybook UI go to Import / Export Current Configuration (under Utilities)

Export the current configuration, open the file, update: ssh_enable="disabled", to ssh_enable="enabled", import the configuration file

After reboot SSH is enabled.

Default is root / welc0me as per other WD devices

This is a very cool device and soooo much quicker than the MB World…

please don't hijack the thread title. From the thread, sounds like you are asking question on ssh.

You may try to remove transmission first, then try to install it again with the latest release.

I just that in WD MyBook Live forum :

" Go to http://mybooklive/UI/ssh (case sensitive) replace "mybooklive" if you have renamed it to something else, or replace it with its IP address. It's a hidden UI menu to enable SSH. "
