I clicked enable on SSH but get the error:
The service could not be started.

Any ideas what I can do to fix this?

Ok, I got it working by alowing root login but now I cannot create directories or files?

The root filesystem is read-only in FreeNAS (it's what's on the USB drive you boot off of, and is not intended to be written to).

Did you verify /mnt/Zeta exists? Run "cd /mnt" and "ls -l" and see if Zeta is there. Remember, unix filesystems are case-sensitive (unlike Windows), so /mnt/zeta is different than /mnt/Zeta.
