Enable SSH on WD MyBook

Link

       

To login use /UI/login, example: http://192.168.1.150/UI/login

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.

Change root password right away.


If you want to enable SFTP, modify /etc/ssh/sshd_config 
and add the user who needs to access through SFTP. 
For example: “AllowUsers root malex” enables the user 
“malex” to connect to the device by both ssh and sftp.

Twonky is available at port 9000, example: http://192.168.1.150:9000
FTP when enabled is available using the user you created.
