Hi
I have recently had an account hacked and I'm now changing all of my passwords. I'm using 2.94 on qnap and would like to change my password. I've read that I change the json file but I'm unsure how to access it. Would someone please be able to give me step by step instructions please.
Change transmission password on qnap
Re: Change transmission password on qnap
If you installed the transmission from the qnap club store, the settings file should be here:
/opt/QTransmission/etc/settings.json
Just make sure to stop transmission before editing that file. The setting you need to change is rpc-password.
the setting file documentation is here:

Thanks. I'm not sure what I need to do to get there. Sorry I'm new to this.
Re: Change transmission password on qnap
you need to telnet or ssh using admin username/password, then cd to that directory and edit the file. not sure which editor you have installed. I'm using vim which is installed by default but it's not the most newb-friendly editor.

Thanks. I'm not sure whats installed either. This might be beyond my skill set so maybe I'll have to leave it as default. Thank you
