Tutorial: SSH into Synology NAS with Useful Examples

[cul8rmom1 5]

Shouldnt be a hard disk issue.  Synology uses raid so it typically wont expose a disk problem to the os in that way.   Are you actually cd into the directories to make sure there is actually something there?  You could also just rename the directory.  Stop the emby service from auto starting.  Try and either rename it or take the permissions off then reboot the thing.  (hopefully whatever is holding it or doing something weird cant and gives up.). Then try to rename it or delete it or whatever.  You could also do ls -A to list all the stuff in the dir.  Some stuff could be hidden.  I dont mess with console much either but linux is bad about uppercase and lower case in commands (I think case sensitive is dumb .. but all the linux folks always have some random reason it makes sense heh).  I thought you had to use -R to recursively delete things .. that might be for chmod or whatever.  You could try using a piece of software called bitvise tunniler.  It pretty much does everything easier when messing with linux stuff.  Its all drag and droppy you dont have to learn a bunch of different stuff.  It can also make an ssh tunnel to rdp or use that ssh tunnel to create a local socks proxy (meaning you can tunnel your web traffic thru a proxy server … that is actually being made my tunniler over 443 if you want you know .. unfiltered internet access for some reason.  Just make sure you turn your login banner off :D.)

 

poopspan.  No promises but hit me up sometime and maybe we can do a discord screen share.  I have gotten a lot of support from this community and would like to pay some of it back.

I am also running synology DS1821+ DS1817+ and a few synology based VMs in an esx cluster.  I think we should be able to figure it out.

Have a good one.
