MyBook live: enable SSH access

Update 2015-06-19: I now own a WD My Cloud which also has a USB port to backup data directly to external drives. Together with a HDD dock this make a sweet backup solution.

Here you simply go to the UI, go to Settings > Network and toggle the SSH option.

I’ve got myself a Western Digital My Book Live for all my baby pictures. Nice thing about it, it runs debian wheezy AND you can access it via SSH!

To enable the access, point your favourite browser to http://mybooklive.local/UI/ssh and click the checkbox.
