Install OpenSSH on Drobo 5N
The DroboPorts site says that it is possible to install apps onto the Drobo 5N, but I understand the Drobo 5N only supports Copy and Plex right now and cannot install other apps.
Could someone please advise how I can get SSH installed on a Drobo 5N? Cannot find relevant instructions anywhere.

Connect to your Drobo
You can quickly connect to your Drobo:
- Look up the IP address of your Drobo device using Drobo Dashboard You can find the Network Information under the Status section of the
dashboard for your device.
- open PuTTY
- enter the connection details
root@<ip-address>
- when prompted use the password "root" to authenticate
You should now be logged-in and the PuTTY window should look like
this:
Change the default password
It's good practice to change publicly known default passwords as soon
as possible. Sure, it's unlikely that anyone will connect to your
network, stumble across your Drobo, connect, and do Evil Things™ but
why take the risk.
It's also a good way to give an example of using the SSH session.
Simply type
passwd, press Enter and follow the prompts. You won't
see any output when you're typing your new password; you don't know
how many spycams have been installed while you were at work during the
day.
Saving an SSH session
If you have configured your home router to assign a fixed IP address
to your Drobo you might want to save the session in PuTTY so that you
don't need to type the username and destination every time you want to
reconnect.
Open the menu by clicking on the icon in the top left of the PuTTY
window, and choose New Session.
- enter the connection details as before (
root@<ip-address>)
- In the text input field for Saved Sessions enter a name to call the session ('MyDrobo')
- click 'Save'
Please refer to this guide for more information - http://blog.chisel.pm/2014/03/how-to-ssh-onto-drobo-5n-from-microsoft.html

- You will need to copy the

- Any users defined will by default have access via SSH to the Drobo
- Root has access with the default password
root(please please please change this ASAP!)
- The defined administrator user’s username is
Admin, notadmin.

According to this site it should be possible and it has some instructions based on the Drobo-specific OpenSSH source code provided by DroboPorts:
Install OpenSHH. This will allow you to log remotely into the
Drobo unit. A few things to note:
- You will need to copy the
openssh.tgzto the DroboApps share and then reboot, at which point OpenSHH will get installed and will start.
- Any users defined will by default have access via SSH to the Drobo
- Root has access with the default password
root(please please please change this ASAP!)
- The defined administrator user’s username is
Admin, notadmin.
