It's in the firmware zip file[1], something like FWUpdate.exe (they change the
name sometimes).

The best suggestion I can make (other than waiting for acp_commander to get an
update so it's able to open up the 1.43 firmware) is to use the Windows or Mac
uploader to upload your modified firmware.

I missed the 1.43 part... Seems they've improved security.
If you can get a shell prompt with acp_commander, try running whoami. If you're
already root, then "passwd -d root" will clear the current password, and you
can then set it to anything you like with "passwd"

Joseph,
I think the firmware may have changed...
I reset the root password, but still cannot login.

You shouldn't need to change or upload firmware.
acp_commander can reset the root password (If it can get a shell prompt it
should be able to reset the password...)
java -jar acp_commander.jar -t $YOUR_NAS_IP_ADDRESS -o
That will clear the root password to nothing, allowing you to login via ssh
Joeseph,
One more issue, oh Great Buffalo NAS one;-)
I started to work on rooting the device by following this

is I have firmware 1.43. However, the zip key for 1.41 worked to unzip the
firmware image. It turns out ssh
rsync will preserve ownership if you set the option to do so (I don't recall
the exact flag offhand).
I actually prefer rsync over the Samba mount because cifs doesn't understand
POSIX permissions.
If you root the box you can certainly do the rsync over ssh, but on a local net

In the shared folders section, one can check Windows, Apple, disk backup,
ftp, and sftp. When I clicked Windows and backup, rsync works.

For the mount, you can just use normal mount with -t cifs (or put it in fstab
with cifs as the filesystem type).
umount is generic; the unmount interface standardized a while back, that's why
umount.cifs is no longer in Debian, it's obsolete.
For rsync, the module name will never have a space.
The only way I can gain access to the shares is to use the following. I
created a new share called 'fred' and deleted the other shares:
mount.cifs //xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/fred /home/nas_share -o user=user_name

Of course, umount.cifs is no longer in Debian, but umount -f works to

Dash and underscore are fine.
The only way to "reset" the name using the standard web interface is to delete
the share and re-create it with the new name.

The correct value should be array1_Hshare. array1_Hshare is the rsync
top-level "module" name, not a directory.

It's not in the manual, but the "BuffaloLink" mechanism that allows one NAS to
backup another is rsync.
You can rsync to the box (to do backups) with the following pattern:

Great suggestions all!
