Create the hass-daemon file with putty

Hi, im new to this forum and trying to install Home Assistant on my synology NAS.

I am following the guide on how to install in, but i got stuck on the
“Create hass-daemon file using the following code (edit the variables in uppercase if necessary)”

How do i create that file when i am in putty ?

sorry for suck a lame as post… just wanted to get it up and running,

There is no such thing as a lame ass post when you need help! That’s what forums are for.

I’ve never used a Synology NAS but if you’re using putty you can see if the NAS has the nano editor. Here’s a guide to using it:

If not, maybe it has the Vi editor, so here’s a guide for that, too:

Hope this helps!

thanks i will try with these links

Did a little more research and found an article on using nano on the Synology, though you will have to install it. Article links to install guide as well.

Cool! Glad I could help!

Could you kindly let me know how you pasted the code from the HA website for the daemon into Vi on the Synology? Going mad here.

hey,

i just uploaded the file in a usual folder and then
copied it with “mv”.

maybe this idea will help some of you
