Installing SRM CLI on Synology Router RT2600ac doesn't work.

Hi.

I tried to install the CLI version on my Synology Router but get this error:

su: must be suid to work properly

Any ideas to what the problem could be / I'm doing wrong?

Im logged in as admin/root.

Firmware: SRM 1.2.5-8227 Update 2

Terminal Output:

i) Install NextDNS
e) Exit
Choice (default=i): i
INFO: Installing NextDNS...

Have a nice day!

    *Update.

    I figured out what the problem was.

    The instructions on their wiki for SRM here says:

    To connect to SSH, use the root username with the admin password.

    The root username on SRM is "admin" but that is not what you have to use.

    You have to use "root" as username with the "admin" password.

    So, to make it work login with :

    User: root

    Password: Your password for the SRM admin account.

    Maybe there is some room for clarification on the wiki page.

    Anyhow, it works so happy about that!

      NextDNS Hi!

      Thank for your reply.

      What i misunderstood from the wiki was that i had to use "root" as username and not the root username "admin".

      To me "use the root username" = admin (the Synology root username) and not "root".  So for me something like i written above would be more clear: "When connecting with SSH use "root" as username and the password for the SRM admin account."

      All the best!
