unable to ssh to fresh image

Hi,

I use my vu+duo primarily as aNAS, however i had it offline for a while when immigrating to IReland form finland so forgot the root password I had set, "no problem" I thought, I'll just reimage it then ssh accross with root and blank password, nope, access denied. So I switched form open pli to blackhole, same issue.

The googling Iv'e done tells me to download the password changer, but that isn't listed as a plugin under the plugins or the extensions.

I'm running fedora core 22 and open blackhole 0.1
Please help, not having ftp access to my box is driving me demented
Kind Regards,
Phaze

On a fresh image root user can access the box with a blank password via telnet and ftp. Ssh will not accept blank passwords...

ahh that explains it, should have been using telnet not ssh, it is sorted now, much gratitude :)
