stuartgib 2 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I just fixed the same issue. See what I posted in https://forum.synology.com/enu/viewtopic.php?f=90&p=424906 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carneth 12 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 The way i fixed this issue ... but be warned I still can't get winSCP to work.. I can - however - get ssh access as root.. So that's fine for me.. i just use scp and copy files around that I upload to a share (i can get winSCP to work as non-root) 1) SSH as admin 2) synouser --setpw root [CURRENT - ADMIN - PASSWORD] 3) and then log out, 4) SSH as root .. tadaaa it all worked for me from here... Not 100% sure that the root password needed to be the same as the admin password, but, it seemed safer given the history of the root and admin accounts being linked up!

Luke 29983 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 We have a new installation procedure for Synology users. It's very easy and is now on our website: http://emby.media/nas-server.html All Synology users are recommended to use this going forward (if your model supports it).
