SAB directory on Asustor NAS

I am trying to reset the password in SABnzbd. I saved the user/pass on my desktop when i first setup Sab. I had to restart my NAS today and then had to login to SAB, however my credentials would not work. I found a reddit post talking about SAB on NAS systems, and found that I can reset the password by editing this config file- /volume1/@appstore/sabnzbd/var/config.ini But I cannot find out how to access the volume1 directory. I am running ADM 3.2.1.RKU4 on an Asustor AS6204T. I have had SABnzbd running perfectly in conjunction with Sonarr for weeks, but I cannot access Sabnzbd now...PLEASE HELP

Can you login using SSH?

Thanks for the quick reply, but I managed to figure out my issue. I thought my User ID was admin, but it was something else. the password was the same. I realized this when I went into Sonarr settings to look at configured download clients and saw the User ID.

I understand that the Asustor ADM software is basically a modified version of linux. I am almost a complete linux n00b, so I don't know how to ssh into the Asustor. However, I would think the config file would be better if located in the Home directory for easier access to the average NAS user...

Usually it is, but because we have to use the special package structure of the Asustor software we are not allowed to write to that directory.
If you install SABnzbd on for example Ubuntu, it will be in home.
