Hi!

Very useful features for all...
Is your mod based on "big" built feature set?
Thanks,
Mat

Which build is this? Is there printer support as well?

@Avmat: It is a std + usb + ftp + samba3 + ntfs

Samba and ntfs support need a lot of flash space, so for a wnr3500l it is not possible to integrate these features into big.

@taekwon3dan: Yes

Hi,
it is nice compilation, but I have problem with set up permission. When I want to open folder "Share" in WinXP it is not possible or after open folder I'm not able to create subfolder, delete files etc...
I tried click right mouse button on folder "Share" but there is not possible set up permision for user. Maybe it is possible but not in my case.
How can I set permission for "Share" and subfolders. Ideally I need 3 folders and 2 users. Everyone can write and read from one folder and both can only read from third folder.
Can you advise me how can I set these permissions?

Sorry for my English I hope you understand my problem :-)

Hi cz_coxx, before you start make sure you got the latest image from here:

http://www.desipro.de/ddwrt/dd-wrt-usb-ftp-samba3-O2-v24-K26-broadcom.bin

There I have fixed a problem with permissions using fat32 volumes.

Then if you need to setup shares for different users:

-connect the external drive to your computer, create folder "Share1" "Share2" in its root

-connect the drive to your router, set up usb stuff to mount the drive in /jffs

-go to the samba setup page, enable custom configuration

enter user a + pass, user b + pass

-now add a custom setup like this one:

[global]
server string = My Samba
workgroup = Home
interfaces = br*
bind interfaces only = Yes
map to guest = Bad User
smb passwd file = /var/samba/smbpasswd
private dir = /var/samba
passdb backend = smbpasswd
log file = /var/smbd.log
max log size = 1000
printing = none
load printers = No
usershare allow guests = Yes

[Share1]
comment = Restricted Area
path = /jffs/Share1
read only = No
guest ok = No
valid users = a

[Share2]
comment = Restricted Area
path = /jffs/Share2
read only = No
guest ok = No
valid users = b

May 24, 2010 3:07 PM

Kong:
Thank you for your advice.

If I understand when I want to have Share3 where will be only read permision for both users add to custom setup this paragraph:

[Share3]
comment = Restricted Area
path = /jffs/Share3
read only = Yes
guest ok = No
valid users = a
valid users = b

It is correct?

May 24, 2010 4:55 PM

Almost, it would be:

valid users = a b

@kong

I want to run a ldna service.
I tried to install twonky which comes with optware.
The service is running but I can't connect with it by it's ip 192.168.1.1:9000
Do you have any sugestions of which ldna server I could use with this build that works?
Perhaps you've installed one youreselve.

May 25, 2010 3:08 PM

Hi Pablo you could try:

http://www.myopenrouter.com/download/18561/miniDLNA-experimental-optware-Pack...

The above article mentions automatic discovery is not working, it should using my mod, since I have included inotify.

May 25, 2010 3:55 PM

Thanks Kong, this is what I need. Perfect. Thanks, thanks, thanks.

As I have read, installing Optware requires repartioning the external disk drive. I want to be able to connect the router to my NTFS external disk drive, but I have been wowed by the vast amount of data that is availablem, but unorganized/uncategorized.

Optware seems to require a certain amount of data which would need external storage. I do really not trust repartitioning my external NTFS drive, as I have gotten it back from RMA fixed after issues with running Linux and the external drive. I don't mind tweaking my router (3500L), but not the drive.

May 26, 2010 5:24 PM

ujjain, just use my dd-wrt mod, it has ntfs-3g included:

http://www.desipro.de/ddwrt/dd-wrt-usb-ftp-samba3-O2-v24-K26-broadcom.bin

you won't need any optware setup.

Kong:
I tried to set Samba according to your advice (comment from May 24, 2010 7:31 PM) but there is something wrong. Connection to Share1 (user1) work perfect but I not able to connect to Share2 (user2). When I want to connect to Share2 is displayed message with error:

Is not possible connect device: There is multiple connection to server and is not possible to use more than one user. Close other connection to server and try it again.

It is not exactly because my Windows are localized in Czech language :-) Do you know how I can solve this problem? I'm not sure where is problem (WinXp or Samba). 

Thank you for your help

May 29, 2010 9:09 AM

First off: THANK YOU. This is a great package. Perfect for my needs and I am sure many many others.

I am a complete newbie to DD-WRT. If you had the time, could you offer some advice on how to share a printer with your FW. I have found things like this that help in general, but I am left wondering what might be different with your FW.

Thanks a ton.

If you first connect to Share1 and then to Share2 Windows is still holding a connection to Share1 and that is why Wikndows tells you that you cannot connect multiple times with different users, see the error message:-)

So this is purely a windows problem, which can solved for example through a reboot.

May 30, 2010 6:59 PM updated: May 30, 2010 7:38 PM

So, I have done a ton of reading and am a little less of a newbie now.  :-)

I think my question now is why jffs has no space available?  It shows 4,224.00 KB / 0 for JFFS2.  As I have read, I need to do a ipkg install of p910nd.  However, I can't do so as /jffs has no space.  Is it set to Read Only?

Any help would be appreciated.

For JFFS you need to do the following. Enable JFFS and enable clean JFFS, then your router schould reboot and create the JFFS structure, now you need to reboot again, since JFFS filestructure is only read at boot time. Now you should see the correct space.

May 31, 2010 3:24 PM

Hi Kong. Noob question here... When selecting 'public share', i noticed that it shares the /jffs directory. How can i set it to share /mnt?

thanks

sorry dupe

May 31, 2010 4:51 PM

Hi jsims,

first disable Public hare, then enable "Use Custom Configuration" and enter for example:

[global]
server string = Router
workgroup = Home
interfaces = br*
bind interfaces only = Yes
map to guest = Bad User
smb passwd file = /var/samba/smbpasswd
private dir = /var/samba
passdb backend = smbpasswd
log file = /var/smbd.log
max log size = 1000
printing = none
load printers = No
usershare allow guests = Yes

[Public]
comment = Public Share
path = /mnt/
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
guest only = Yes

May 31, 2010 5:24 PM updated: May 31, 2010 5:42 PM

Thanks for the reply. It maps fine and reports total and free space in Windows, which is great. However the list of files is empty. Any ideas? Is this maybe a permissions issue?

-- A reboot of the router fixed the issue. it appears to be working perfectly. thank you very much for your help, you've solved all of my problems (hopefully) with my router.
