Sudoers and superuser access via SSH to disable "admin" account

Last modified date: 2022-06-24

All NAS Series
All QTS Firmware Versions

Unfortunately QTS or QuTS hero does not support sudoers or create any superusers to access via SSH. QNAP's superuser is “admin” account. If you disabled it for security reasons and you need to run some command as root, then you will need to enable the “admin” account temporarily and disable it again when you finish.
