Thanks!
admin is root on QNAP. If pagekite does not give you an option to select where to save the setup files you may have to save them to a share and then use a script which runs at startup (using 'autorun') to copy them back to wherever pagekite needs them to be.

Sorry I can't be much help but I have only had my QNAP a few months and am still getting my head around how it does things. Very different to my old readynas.
