I do not think that SSODS has something to to with it.

I do backups on demand (manually initiated). I had (have) an issue with
Firefox where the backup status page would not update (i.e. show progess
0 mb and 0 time left to finish). With IE the problem does not appear.

Do you have the latest firmware (368)?

2006-07-06 Thread rhubarbe

Have a slight problem with my DS-101j and even though I am sure it isn't
connected to SSODS I thought I'd ask it anyway.

Thgere is a facility on the DS-101j to backup to a mounted USB HDD
attached to the DS-101j.

You can choose for the DS-101j to automatically do backups based upon a
schedule.  I have set an hourly backup schedule but the danged thing
just doesn't do it.  It does an immediate backup if I click on that but
reports a transfer of 0MB in 0sec.  I have to ftp to the USB HDD to be
abe to confirm whether it has done anything and I do not want to have
to do this every time.

Anybody else get this?  Is it SSODS or is it the capacity of the USB
HDD tat I am using (40GB) DS-101j HDD 250GB.

Flummoxed.

rhubarbe, i am sorry to tell you this:

A collegue has just tested it on a new (i.e. installed from scratch,
with an empty hdd) DS-101g+, firmware 284. And it worked as expected
and described!

I suggest, that you start from scratch as well. Empty the HDD: delete
all partitions. you probalby need to connect the HDD to another
computer (internal or in an external usb-enclosure) and delete the
partitions. This can be done in windows using the "Disk Tool" (I don't
know the exact English name) under "Administrative Tools" (or so).

Then reinstall the DS with the firmware 284 and try again.

I hope it will work.

Regards,
flipflip

Oh, sorry, my concentration has gone down a bit.. I need some "fuel"
(i.e. lunch) soon :-)

If you install with a new harddisk then you have an unpatched system.
There's not much to patch in the flash memory. And if there was
something wrong the DS would probably have other problems.

I'll have a llok at the firmware. I cannot see it running, but i have
the files. Maybe there is a slight difference to mine (since it is a
bit older; revision 281, i have 284 on the j).

Stay tuned.

Well, at least the DS is still running. ;->

What firmware revision do you have?

What DS do you have exactly. You say "101g". Does that exists? Do n't
you mean 101g+?

I have one confirmation from a g+ user by mail. Although from an
earlier (not published) version. And he had his machine already patched
before (Optware). Maybe there is some library incompatibility.. Although
I do not understand why.

Did you patch the machine before (NSLU2/OpenSlug/Optware or the like)?

We can do two things.

1. Check if SS would still run. That can be done by telnet (command:
/volume1/SlimServer/bin/rc.slimserver start). If it runs, we're fine,
then it's only the admin interface which does not work.

2. See why the admin interface produces an error. I'll look at that.
The URL you posted is okay. The id will be checked against the file
"current.users" which contains a list of currently logged in users. If
that fails, you get a clear message indication so and not a webserver
error.

OK, well I tried flashing the ssods patched firmware:

ssods-r1b2-ppc.pat

This is my ds-101g data:

Model Name:
DS-101g+
Current Firmware Version:  
2.0.1 - 3.0284
Firmware Date: 
2006/02/14

I got the error 42 message as expected and went to the ssods tab of the
Network Admin menu (logged on as admin)

Then when I tried to do this:

2. Then, in the admin interface, under Networking, go to the SSODS
panel.

3. Follow the instructions given there carefully.

and got the 403 result:

You don't have permission to access /tools/ssods.cgi on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use
an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

So, and to prove I have the Readme.txt, I have tried logging in again,
about ten times.  This isn't having any effect.  I still can't get in.

More ideas?

Virtually nothing. Not working would mean, that you cannot start the
slimserver process because of binary incompatibility. But that shall
not happen. There is an included "deinstallation-patch" which will
completely remove all of SSODS even if the installation has partly
failed. And in the very worst case you can still format the whole
harddisk and setup the DS from scratch.

I cannot think of any way why the installation of the patch would
interfere with the DS functionality.

Mmm.  I have a new 101g at work with a 500Gb 7000.9 Seagate Barracuda in
it.  I was going to bring it home and run it alongside the 101j but with
my video files on (the audio files are all on the 101j).

If I could run SS on the 101g I could just use that on it's own at home
(plus it's black and matches our decor better than the white of the
101j).  I coud take the 101j back to work and nobody would be any the
wiser ;).  So, I would only need the one DS.

If I tried to install ssods ans ss on a 101g what's the worst that
could happen if it didn't work?

Indeed, I do.

I did not test it, but I am rather confident that it will work. The
101g+'s hardware must be much the same as that of the 106e and the
software is common for all Diskstations (apart from added features in
newer releases).

Nice to hear that.

What firmware do you have? I suggest that you do not upgrade it, since
that will make SSODS unusable (and not installable a second time). Wait
for the new version (coming very soon) which will include instructions
on how to upgrade the fw when SSODS is already installed.

Well, it came back on at Scan over the weekend so I bought one.  It
arrived this morning.  Installed 250GB Samsung SP2514 and screwed the

Followed the instruction in this thread and have Slimserver up and
running on my DS-101j beautifully easily and it took less than 30
minutes from opening the DS-101j box.  Didn't touch the sides. :)

Brilliant, thanks.  Saved a lot of cash by not having to buy one of

Great article. I can imagine quite a few people will want to 'mod'
devices like this to run SlimServer rather than having to run a full
blown PC 24/7/52.

When I looked around for an alternative to my PC based Mandriva
SlimServer I did look at the Synology 101J NAS as a possible option,
but as I couldn't find any info. on anyone porting SS to it (and
therefore didn't know whether it would even be possible to do it) I
moved onto other devices.

In the end I purchased (three weeks ago) a KuroBoxHG, installed my own
HD, and proceeded to install Gentoo and SlimServer on it. It's now been
running 10 days, AlienBBC & LastFM installed without issue, and it's
been servicing 2 Squeezeboxen and 1 Softsqueeze player without fail,
even when playing flac music whilst downloading same onto it from the
original Mandriva box. I'm well impressed with it... If anyone is
interested I'll do a wiki entry for those wanting to use the KuroBoxHG
as a SS.

Maybe a wiki entry for Philippe's work would be good also?

Go to http://oinkzwurgl.org/software/ssods/ to get the patch and
further details. And be sure to check the trailer (animated GIF)!

Yes, you do not need telnet access.

Yes, this package will allow you to enable telnet access.
