Bekijk de volledige versie : Custom 1.0.7.8 firmware is ready to download
Finally a custom version of the 1.0.7.8 Asus release is ready to release. This version continues many of the philosophies of the 1.0.4.6 version, but has some additional features that make it much more usable out of the box.
For those of you using the previous 1.0.4.6 version, this one is not 100% backwards compatible, though it's pretty close. Read the documentation carefully and you should be OK.
The documentation and firmware image are on back2basic's web site here:
http://wl700g.homelinux.net/drupal/?q=node/134
I would like to thank him for his generous offer to host everything.

So, umm, dumb question.. What's the login & pw for the telnet? :) I tried my router's login & pw for the web interface but it didn't work.
nvm, figured it out.. ok, next dumb question.. does the rc.local go in the same spot? My old one was still hanging around but it doesn't look
like it was executed, since watchdog was still running when it all came up, and I had it set to kill watchdog.
Also is there anyway to tell that I'm actually running your 1.0.7.8 and somehow didn't get the stock version?
I remember when I was tinkering with the source a while back I found where the version number was stored and was able to change it..
don't remember if it actually reflected it when I flashed the firmware though. :)
ok, and just to err on the side of paranoia, when I downloaded your image, the website named it something totally random, which made
finding it on my hard drive interesting. :) So I honestly don't know which version I actually downloaded, but from what I read of your
documentation and what I'm seeing on this end, I think I'm running the stock 1.0.7.8. SSH isn't working, and my telnet login is the good
ol' root with no password.. my web interface l/p isn't working.

Read the FAQ section. You need to insure that the environment variable KCSHELL is set to /opt/bin/bash so that the postinstall scripts will run properly:
export KCSHELL=/opt/bin/bash
Logging in as root via ssh will do this, as will a "sudo -l bash" if logged in as the admin user.
ok, and just to err on the side of paranoia, when I downloaded your image, the website named it something totally random, which made finding it on my hard drive interesting. :) .
Interesting... Perhaps back2basic can chime in here! Tonight I'll mirror it to the wl500g.info site which should preserve the filename.
To make sure you got the right file, confirm the md5 sum.
SSH isn't working, and my telnet login is the good ol' root with no password.. my web interface l/p isn't working.
Both of these features are configured via rc.local. If you're running your old rc.local, then the scripts which fix the password file are probably not being executed.
When migrating from 1.0.4.6, I'd recommend temporarily renaming /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt to /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt.DO_NOT_LOAD so that the /opt filesystem from the firmware image is executed.
After that, combine the new 1.0.7.8 rc.local with your old 1.0.4.6 rc.local, rename opt.DO_NOT_LOAD back to opt, and reboot the router.

ok, next dumb question.. does the rc.local go in the same spot? My old one was still hanging around but it doesn't look like it was executed, since watchdog was still running when it all came up, and I had it set to kill watchdog.
Regarding rc.local, please read the documentation. I specifically addressed this point.
It's OK to keep watchdog running now. Asus fixed the problem where it kept the HDD spinning. Also, it's been released as source again, that's how I confirmed the original problem has been fixed.
Also is there anyway to tell that I'm actually running your 1.0.7.8 and somehow didn't get the stock version?
You'll be able to tell by poking around the filesystems. If you have an /bin/kcsh then it's running the custom firmware.

[/QUOTE4]
You'll be able to tell by poking around the filesystems. If you have an /opt/bin/kcsh then it's running the custom firmware.
- K.C.
Yeah sorry about that, I did notice after I posted that you did put instructions up.. It was late :)
I looked, kcsh isn't there.. But based on your next response, it may not have written the /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt because it already existed. I'll rename my /opt to something else and reflash it and see if that gets it working right.
Also, when I did flash the new firmware, my router didn't reboot like it was suppose to. I had to tell it to reboot.. very strange, but everything fired back up with the new firmware.
UPDATE: I renamed my /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt and reflashed the firmware. This time it took off without a hitch, rebooted, and now my web l&p is working for logging into the telnet session, and SSH works. Still don't see kcsh in /opt though, but I did compare the md5 and they match, so it's definitely the right .nas file.
Ok, so after more tinkering, I noticed it doesn't seem to like my old /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt directory being there.. or any /opt directory being there for that matter. If I rename the old one and reboot the router, dropbear works and everything seems to be working as it should, but as soon as I either rename the old opt dir back to opt, dropbear doesn't work, and the telnet login is back to root, no password. Even if I create a blank /opt directory there, it still doesn't work right (figured it was a nice test). I even renamed my old rc.local to rc.local.OLD in case it was trying to run it. So I guess I should start with a fresh /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt directory, since it symlinks the /opt directory to that if it sees it.. I guess I need to go back over your old tutorials for your 1.0.4.6 firmware and rebuild it..?
Sorry to be a pain, life of an early adopter. :)
UPDATE THE UPDATE: RTFM, that's all I gotta say... I followed your instructions, copied /opt to /shares/MYVOLUME1, rebooted, and everything seems to be working wonderfully. There was definitely something about my old /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt directory it didn't like (probably has a lot to do with it missing your rc.local script lol), but I wasn't attached to it, so I just replaced it and it's working great.
Question though.. if I start changing anything in the web interface, is it going to re-write the passwd file like it use to? making it so I'd have to reboot the router (or at the very least attempt to run your fix scripts) to get it working right?
Kudos on a job well done sir! Nice to see someone has the skills and the desire to help us make this little white brick into something a bit more useful :)
Thank for your help.

OK, I think your problem is that you must already have a /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt directory. If this directory is present, the firmware assumes you want to use it in place of the static firmware /opt directory.
Follow the directions I gave to fireflash in this thread and read the documentation about upgrading from 1.0.4.6 to 1.0.7.8.

P.S. Along with KCSHELL, you'll have to define and export LD_LIBRARY_PATH and a reasonable PATH. This is illustrated in the /.profile on the router.
Still don't see kcsh in /opt though, but I did compare the md5 and they match, so it's definitely the right .nas file.
My bad. I meant to say /bin/sh
Question though.. if I start changing anything in the web interface, is it going to re-write the passwd file like it use to?
From what I've been able to tell, the passwd file is only updated upon reboot or when a user gets changed/updated in UBSA windows filesharing mode. In either case, I've not yet experienced the passwd file being completely rewritten without rc.local also being called.

Just flashed my white box to 1078 kfurge. The funny thing is - I thought it didn't work. I used web interface and selected the file, and then screen went blank, URL was something on flashing progress, but page said "done." and nothing was happening. PC wasn't transfering anything, and I waited and waited, had another cigarette.... nothing.
The internet was working, though, so I said, no go. I said i'll restart the router and try again, but router wouldn't react to nothing. power button just didn't do anything.
So after a while I gave up, and unplugged the power cable. After the damn thing booted, I normally logged on to web interface and... it said 1.0.7.8 !!! (was 1.0.4.6)
Cool! :-)
Now... how does one add .torrent files to MLDonkey???? :-)
fireflash
24-01-2008, 19:54
Mine did something similar. When I flashed it using the web interface, it went through the motions, then said it was going to reboot, but it didn't. So I just let it sit there and spin it's wheels, then it came back to the web interface like nothing had happened.. So I had to make it reboot, after that, it was all good.
To add torrents to mldonkey, go to the mldonkey interface page, and copy and paste the .torrent url into the DL box.
Just updated to 1078. All worked fine via the web interface - none of the oddities reported above.
Couple of things: if i reboot the unit (from the web interface, cos the asus is physically upstairs and i'm lazy) and telnet in, i can work for a bit (with different prompt) before connection is dropped/kicked after say 30secs. then when i log back in, the login prompt is different; all good tho!
Done as said: renamed old opt dir /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt to something else, and copied the 'new' /opt in place to start afresh from. However,
doing 'ipkg update' gives me the following, and i can't add any new packages afterwards (e.g. optware-devel etc)
$ ipkg update

also, whenever i try to do 'sudo bash' i get something about /opt/etc/sudoers being owned by gid 42000 should be 0.
but i love the whole 'press copy button to use default boot' - great solution to mucked up rc.local, and finally a fix for /bin/sh -> /opt/bin/bash. great stuff.
UPDATE: ok ok ok...so my asus couldn't actually access the wider world (was reset to gateway mode not access point which is how i normally have it). so ipkg thing fixed, but the sudo oddity still there...
Yeeeeehaaaaa big thx, cheers everyone!!! :D
also, whenever i try to do 'sudo bash' i get something about /opt/etc/sudoers being owned by gid 42000 should be 0.
Something must have happened when the file got copied... The 42000 GID is indicative of an Asus made user. Maybe you didn't copy it as root? The firmware image has the UID:GID for all files set to 0:0.
Fixing is easy with chgrp, though other sudo related files are probably also broken.

The first shell is started by the Asus code, but is completely insecure without the firewall enabled (though not having the firewall enabled is suicidal anyway). So, in rc.local I kill the Asus telnet and start my own to close the hole. That's when you get kicked off. This is a good FAQ item.
- K.C.
One small thing: i've taken my asus to work, so i can mess with it during lunchtime to get everything sorted; this has inadvertently led me to set the IP address to a duff value that means i can no longer access it.
so i hold down reset for 10 seconds, which i thought just reset the settings, then reboot - i can access it again (via 192.168.1.1) but the firmware has been reset to 1.0.4.6 -> which obviously means reflashing all over again...is there a better way to just reset to factory settings, without reverting the flash??

Erasing everything in /shares/MYVOLUME1 was probably not the best idea... I'm not sure how to recover from that.
Regarding MLDonkey, the startup output is in /tmp/mldonkey.out. It'll show you why it's not starting. I suspect it's because you don't have a /shares/MYVOLUME1/MYSHARE1 any more.

I've run across this once or twice in the past. For sure your flash is not being reverted. There's not enough room in it to store two copies. The .nas file consists of two parts, the flash part and a filesystem part. Only the kernel and a very small filesystem reside in the flash. There are two cramfs partitions (I use the term loosely since they're not truly partitions) on the routers HDD which hold the "firmware" contained within the filesystem segment. The router seems to toggle back and forth between them when a .nas file is flashed into it.
I believe you're experiencing a failsafe built into the flash copy of "init" to protect against corruption or failure to one of the cramfs partitions on the HDD. If the reset button is pressed, I think it forces the router to boot from a previously good partition.
I would suspect that flashing the router twice, with a successful boot in between, would completely flush out any old images.
Can you experiment with this concept a bit and try to figure out its behavior?

Seems to work very impressive, MLDonkey worked out of the box, same with SSH. Thank you very much for this impressive firmware, you have really improved Asus default firmware :)
Hi,
When migrating from 1.0.4.6, I'd recommend temporarily renaming /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt to /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt.DO_NOT_LOAD so that the /opt filesystem from the firmware image is executed.
After that, combine the new 1.0.7.8 rc.local with your old 1.0.4.6 rc.local, rename opt.DO_NOT_LOAD back to opt, and reboot the router.
- K.C.
I assume your image contains a 'default' /opt that contains /opt/etc/rc.local. I also assume /.profile is there 'somewhere'. I can't find it. But I did the minimal thing: copied my rc.local to /opt/etc. That is to my /opt, because I ran your previous firmware.
Now, I like to do what you suggest. But how? /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt is mounted to /opt and always busy (mv: cannot rename 'opt': Device or resource busy).
Should I first rename rc.local to something not functional? But will your rc.local than take over (after reboot), and again mount /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt ?
Sorry, I'm a bit :confused:

Sorry, my mistake on the .profile, I set this up a while ago... The default bash profile is in /opt/etc/profile.
Regarding your /opt problem...
The firmware looks for /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt and if it's there, then it mounts /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt over the top of the /opt that's already there and attempts to execute /opt/etc/rc.local. Which rc.local gets executed depends on whether or not /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt exists or not.
To insure the flashed copy of /opt is active, you need to rename /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt (not /opt) to something else:
cd /shares/MYVOLUME1
mv opt opt.DO_NOT_LOAD
reboot
When the router boots again, what's in /opt is the flashed filesystem. Do what you need to do to the /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt.DO_NOT_LOAD/etc/rc.local. After that, repeat the above steps, except step #2 which becomes "mv opt.DO_NOT_LOAD opt" to put everything back.
Lather, rinse, repeat until everything works...

i just installed this custom firmware version 1.0.7.8 from version 2.0.0.7 via web upload.. at first nothing happened because my box doesnt reboot by itself nor even by the power button in front.. yeah, i know thats really weird.. so i then reset the box totally... and after the reboot, it reverted back to custom firmware version 1.0.4.6... i didnt know where it came from.. anyway, i tried installing the custom firmware version 1.0.7.8 via web upload and everything looks ok... except that i could not log in to the telnet using admin account so i login as root...
i read somewhere you mentioned that i kindoff store the previous firmware as sort of backup or something maybe thats why it reverted back to 1.0.4.6 from 2.0.0.7...
then i noticed that mldonkey is not starting up on its own via the rc.local script.. so i just start it myself after i login via telnet and check the logs and get this messege...

It's not watchdog. Try disabling more applications. You can speed up the trial and error process by issuing the following command from a terminal window:
hdparm -y /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc
Keep disabling applications and doing this until the drive stays spun down for at least 60 seconds.
FWIW, the drive does not completely spin down with this firmware. It enters a low RPM mode which reduces drive wear and tear at spin up.

I'd recommend completely purging the router of the 2.0.xx settings by pressing the recessed reset button while powering up the router. You may have to reflash the 1.0.7.8 image after this.

You have some strange stuff going on. Your primary data partition on the HDD is not there! You should have a /dev/se/2 mounted on /shares/MYVOLUME1.

Oh my god! now that you mentioned, yeah i realized its missing.. in the web it says unmounted and there isnt any option to mount it... in the explorer, \\192.168.1.1 doesnt have the share forlder...
what have i done?!?!
i have already reset it a couple of times already and reflash it again and its still not mounting... is there anything i can mount this manually? :confused:

It's not watchdog. Try disabling more applications. You can speed up the trial and error process by issuing the following command from a terminal window:
hdparm -y /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc
Keep disabling applications and doing this until the drive stays spun down for at least 60 seconds.
FWIW, the drive does not completely spin down with this firmware. It enters a low RPM mode which reduces drive wear and tear at spin up.
- K.C.
if I disable anything else the poor thing will stop working! :) I'll see what else I can kill, but it's running just enough to do what it needs to do, nothing special.

Am not experienced with linux, anyway i tried to upgrade to kfurge version.
After plain installation I didn't have the new telnet interface and I was not able to run mldonkey (changes do not commit to nvram, "nvram show" seems to be unchanged).
I was playing with rc.local for a while, so i had copy rc.local form /opt/etc to /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt/etc and BIG MISTAKE I deleted rc.local from /opt/etc. After reboot I was no more able to gain login access to system trough a telnet session. Telnet has old interface and system ask for a login and a password but no name/password satisfy the request. My windows is USBA.
Please, what can I do?

Well the easiest option would be to reflash with the kfurge 1.0.7.8 firmware, connect via telnet. Enter "root" as username, and you should not be prompted for a password.
This is because (as far as i understand) that firmware has programmed the firmware to mount the /shares/MYVOLUME/opt as /opt if it finds any. This means that none of his included goodies will be loaded, and therefore you can not SSH to the router and so on :)
rm -R /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt
When you reboot, the firmware no longer finds an /shares/MYVOLUMe1/opt directory, and will therefore use the /opt directory included in the firmwares filesystem. You should now be able to connect via SSH or telnet, and use the password/username you use in the webinterface.
Alternateively, you will need to rename your old opt directory by doing:
* mv /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt_DO_NOT_LOAD
* Reboot
* Copy the contents of /opt to /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt_DO_NOT_LOAD
* Rename the /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt_DO_NOT_LOAD to /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt
* Reboot
Anyways i would strongly recommend to just delete your old opt directory. I did so because i was afraid the some of my files would interfere with the files Kfurge has included. I had no problems at all after deleting my old opt directory.
if I disable anything else the poor thing will stop working! :) I'll see what else I can kill, but it's running just enough to do what it needs to do, nothing special.
Edit: Here's what I've got running:
The only think you have running that I don't is, nas, PID 208. What's that? One other thought... Are you using the original HDD or did you change it out?
What happens when you use the hdparm command? Does the drive spin back up immediately?
- K.C.
Regarding your /opt problem...
The firmware looks for /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt and if it's there, then it mounts /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt over the top of the /opt that's already there and attempts to execute /opt/etc/rc.local. Which rc.local gets executed depends on whether or not /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt exists or not.
[cut]
Lather, rinse, repeat until everything works...
- K.C.
Hi, thanks, this just confirms my dark thoughts... So, as the Old formerware user, I see The Battle of Two rc.locals, fighting each other with fierce strength, until one passes away. Awry!
Here we have the K.C.Furge soldier that sets KCSHELL and names asoc in the LIB-path, en there we have my formerware fellow with his evel sword: mount -o bind /shares/${pool}/opt /opt. Wow! Klang! That wipes away our new brave fellow in /opt/etc. No! Too much dust and smoke is smashed into my eyes! It's not my brave rc.local thats doing the killing. It's the treacherous, evil rcex that stabs K.C.Furge's rc.local in the back, with it's mount bind.
As spectator of this fight I once logged in as marc and had no hostname, then with export I saw KCSHELL and asoc, which my rc.local does not have. Apparently your rc.local was executing. After sudo bash -l I did have a hostname 'sneeuwwitje', that is from my rc.local. That does its ugly mount -o bind /shares/${pool}/opt /opt.
With mount I saw this as the last lines:
/dev/se/2 on /opt type reiserfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime)
/dev/se/2 on /opt type reiserfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime)
Henrikh likes to delete his old opt. But that is no opt(ion) for me. I have mt-daapd and Twonky running, and so much time spent there. I want to tear these rc.locals apart. So I go for the renaming of my opt, if possible.
Thanks again for clarifying, maybe it eventually can lead to a better documentation for the formerware users.

I thought NAS was another form of network disc access... fat lot of good that does though, I can't get anything to connect to it :P Samba works with everything, so far.
It is the original drive, the Hitachi drive. I tried killing nas, waveservermain, rcamdmain (which seems to have killed my 'Ready' light ?!), and watchdog, and issued the command and it still spins right back up after a few seconds. I don't know what else to kill.

OK. There's one final place to look. Make sure "mount" shows nodiratime and noatime as below:
/dev/se/2 on /shares/MYVOLUME1 type reiserfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime)
/dev/se/2 on /opt type reiserfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime)
If these options are not set then any time an applications reads from the HDD the access time will be updated causing a write to the HDD.
You set these options with:
mount -o remount,noatime,nodiratime /shares/MYVOLUME1
- K.C.
and no passwords are good. No way to gain control. I am stuck.
I'm seeing a trend here... The conversion of rc.local from 1.0.4.6 to 1.0.7.8 can be somewhat difficult and many people are getting stuck with no ability to log in. Unfortunately, unless you put the copy button bypass into *your* rc.local, the bypass does not work.
In retrospect, the bypass is in the wrong spot. It should be in /apps/bin/rcex which mounts the /opt directory and executes rc.local. That way pressing the copy button will *force* a boot with the firmware's /opt directory which is known to work. I'll be uploading an updated firmware image shortly which addresses this issue.

Nope, that ain't it either.. both are mounted correctly. I'm gonna try something silly like disabling my wireless.. Just had a silly thought.. And I'm not using it right now anyways.

I think I have the answer (again...). Spindown seems hit-or-miss without "smartctl -dT" to disable SMART.
Add "smartctl -dT ${internal_hdd}" to your rc.local and see if it stays spun down.

Your problem is that you have both the client_port and tracker_port set to the same value. The tracker_port defines what port MLDonkey will use if you want to run your own tracker, where the client_port is the port being used to download torrents. Just reset tracker_port to its default value (6881) and only change client_port.
have you tried to open the file starting with the sudo command? (Eg. "sudo nano bittorrent.ini")? Or change the permissions (sudo chmod bittorrent.ini 777)?

I just want to add a hint to the new WL700gE_kc_1078_02.nas image instruction.
WAIT for it. As written by kfurge, the ready lamp will blink.
After installing this on my brick, my ready lamp came back on, no flashing at all. After 3 Minutes of hdd activity, it suddenly started flashing!
Right now i am successfully connected via telnet and trying to fix all the mess.
First of all, I want to thank kfurge for doing such a great job. Without this custom image, this router has only small part its powers.
Now goes the question :)

So I'm busy doing that and meanwhile I prepare sort of a howto for others.

P.S. I'm in the same boat you are. I have quite a substantial /opt on my own primary router that will be brought kicking and screaming to 1.0.7.8 soon.

Not likely. But if you have a /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt folder and a running rc.local from your 1.0.4.6 KC Furge image, it is best to, BEFORE you do the update: mv /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt_DO_NOT_LOAD
If you get a message about opt being busy
a) disable all own added software. Set # in front of such startups in rc.local, but at least leave the telnet stuff there unaltered.
b) reboot
c) mv /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt_DO_NOT_LOAD (you need to have telnet running or this will not be possible)
I have updated my Asus without this and had several problems with not starting up, resetting etc. I even had to reset to factory defaults once. I blame the old rc.local.
But all my shares are untouched, music, pictures etc are not affected.
So take care, and wait a while till I finish my how to

Two question:
1) Since mldonkey use a LOT of cpu resources would be very interesting having the possibility to start and stop it in a easy way. Stopping of course is only a matter of killing the core using Sancho, but restarting requires a telnet session and typing some annoying commands (not very comfortable).
2) I have the ftp server accessible from wan and would be very interesting to me knowing who is connected at that time, possibly in real time. Is there the possibility? Could I manage the user's connections?
Thanks in advance to anyone will help me.
(sorry for my ignorance and rusty english, but EXPERTS exists to be hopefully helpful)
i believe not, are you downloading files with many sources? or have you put files in your share folder and now its hashing? give more info's
I have ~10 files with >100 sources each.
I have set up share a day ago, so I suppose hashing should be done by now. CPU usage is sill up to 100%

hmmm i think that is too much for the cpu :eek:
you can play with loop_delay to save cpuload and try to reduce disk access cause i think this is still the bottleneck playing with diskbuffer etc..
http://mldonkey.sourceforge.net/MemoryUsage maybe useful too
but imo this will not help thats just too much,
i started one big well seeded torrent ~40peers 500-700kb/s download= 80% cpuload, like to hear more mldonkey-experience on the wl700 here :) greetz

Thank you Henrikh!! this resolved my issue. I was in pain trying to get that fix and I only had 2 hrs of sleep that night.
Now, I have second problem. I have wl700ge behind my Linksys WRT54G (192.168.3.1). wl700ge is getting a static IP addr. of 192.168.3.100. Meaning, I have wl700ge treated as a client behind my WRT54G. before I mess up the ports 2 days ago, I was able to HTTP access MLdonkey by typing in 192.168.3.100:4080. The first time I had an error that asked me to add my PC's ip address (192.168.3.109) into mldonkey's 'allowed_ips'. I did, and it worked.
Now after i fixed the port issue, I can't access it anymore. i have even tried the 'nvram set kc_ssh_wan_access=Yes' still no go. I wonder what I did wrong? note, I can access WL700gE web Manager by just typing in 192.168.3.100 tho.. umm..
So, simply, hope the above arn't too complicated. I wish to access mldonkey's webui from outside... it was possible before, but now can't. Any suggestions?
thanks in advance.. and kfurge, keep up the great work! I appreciate what you offer to the community!

Interesting. You shouldn't have had to do this since the entire internal subnet 192.168.3.x is configured for full access by the startup script.
So, simply, hope the above arn't too complicated. I wish to access mldonkey's webui from outside... it was possible before, but now can't. Any suggestions?
What do you mean by outside? So far everything you mentioned has been "inside". I.e. on the LAN interface 192.168.3.x. Is this what you can no longer access?
Please log into the router via telnet or ssh and post the mldonkey startup output in /tmp/mldonkey.out.

Something must have happened when the file got copied... The 42000 GID is indicative of an Asus made user. Maybe you didn't copy it as root? The firmware image has the UID:GID for all files set to 0:0.
Fixing is easy with chgrp, though other sudo related files are probably also broken.

Interesting. You shouldn't have had to do this since the entire internal subnet 192.168.3.x is configured for full access by the startup script.
What do you mean by outside? So far everything you mentioned has been "inside". I.e. on the LAN interface 192.168.3.x. Is this what you can no longer access?
Please log into the router via telnet or ssh and post the mldonkey startup output in /tmp/mldonkey.out.

Thanks for the prompt reply, kfurge.

as you can see from the above diagram, from System two, I have no problem accessing mldonkey's http webui. However, I'm not able to from System One, which I was able to before. Any ideas?
thx.
What about connecting to the Mldonkey web interface (or via sancho) from the outside (WAN)? Is that possible?

If the firewall is enabled, you will have to punch a hole through it for the mldonkey http port. Otherwise nobody on the 192.168.3.x network will be able to attach. Maybe you initially didn't have the firewall enabled? If it's on, maybe you should disable it?
Regarding your network configuration... It seems a little strange... Is there a reason why you have it this way? Why not make the wl700g an AP and keep everything on the same network?

tion and Im very newbie.

I'm unclear what your problem(s) are... Regarding chgrp, there are plenty of on-line linux manpages. Google "chgrp manpage".
Regarding your wget problem, I think your path is messed up. You must have /opt/bin and /opt/sbin before /bin and /sbin. The wget on the router must not be good enough.
- K.C.
i started one big well seeded torrent ~40peers 500-700kb/s download= 80% cpuload, like to hear more mldonkey-experience on the wl700 here :) greetz
edit: setting share_scan_intervall=0 try this too
I set share_scan_interval = 0 and also ED2K-max_sources_per_file = 100.
MLDonkey keeps occupying 85-99% of CPU, but it doesn't seem to affect whole system performance. Web surfing and file access are pretty fast. eDonkey downloading is also OK - about 1Gb per day.

haha. Kfurge, I feel stupid. it's really the firewall...
I will be using wl700ge as the main AP as soon as I have it setup and persuade my brother to get rid of the WRT54g.
one question about mldonkey's download speed limit.. I use it primary for BT. I notice in all my downloads speed will never go pass the 20k/s mark.
i've tried the change the max_hard_download_rate to any values over 20, but it wouldn't let me. however, my max_hard_download_rate_2 = 150.
any ideas on this as well? thanks in advance!
one question about mldonkey's download speed limit.. I use it primary for BT. I notice in all my downloads speed will never go pass the 20k/s mark.
I suspect it's related to your network topology again. Other BT peers can't connecto to your wl700g through the linksys router. Because of this your download speed will be throttled back. You will need to configure your linksys router to forward your BT port to the wl700g.

I just flashed again with 2nd release of Kfurge firmware... and it worked similary to the 1st time... it started uploading the image, then screen went blank, and nothing happened... internet was functional the whole time. then I pressed on/off button, but it just went offline (ready off), and when I pressed again - i saw ready blinking 3 times!!! which means that it even didn't require power-cycle to apply new firmware!?? Weird, but it works :-)
Hi !
I thank you Kfurge (and everyone else who is contributing) for the effort your are doing to the ASUS. I just downloaded and installed your latest 1.0.7.8-firmware. Everything seems to be working nicely, except that telneted into the router and trying to issue the command 'ipkg update' gives me this error:
"

So i figured there were some error with the wget and tried running the command 'ipkg install wget' and got this message:
"Package wget (1.10.2-4) installed in /opt/ is up to date.
Nothing to be done
Successfully terminated.

So it seems to be latest wget already installed with your firmware, but what about the error I receive trying to issue the command 'ipkg update" ? What does this mean "WARNING: Unable to remove temporary directory: : No such file or directory" - where is this temp directory ?
Thanks,
Hytekk

I have this also when I do this as non-root user.
So, do this before:

My guess: KC Furge has used root as user, not admin. I think that you use password based access, that is, have no other users than admin, which you also use for the web interface.
So maybe this helps: change to UBSA. That will create the user root for you.
Then, after logging in as admin, you should be able to use sudo bash -l and see:
Password: ....
[root@WL700gE /]$
This will probably do it.
Marc
Hi again and thanks for your quick response ! :)
I did what u told me to and activated userbased passwords, created a user called hytekk with a password, then telneted into the router and logged on as user hytekk. And as u can see i then issued the following commands - but still i get the same error. (The directory BACKUP is a directory i created just to play around with chown/chmod-settings, figuring that that might cause the problem.
[hytekk@WL700gE BACKUP]$ whoami

Any more clues?
I think you have something very fundamentally broken. I tested package update and add, as root, in both UBSA and PBSA modes. Shouldn't matter either way as root is always present in /etc/passwd regardless of the mode.
Did you complete all of the steps referenced here:
http://wl700g.homelinux.net/drupal/?q=node/187
If so then please post the outputs of "mount" and "echo $PATH".

Well, I'm never out of ideas, no matter how bad they turn out eventually.
I just tested ipkg update as root, but I have now the original /opt from the firmware, that is not writable. Guess what I got...

Or is it???

I'm getting the same... I had 1.0.4.6 and upgraded to kfurge Rel1 and the Rel2 of 1.0.7.8, so it's not like I had custom 1.0.4.6 previously...
i just found Midnight Commander File Manager as optware and wanted to try to install it... but ipkg update and ipkg upgrade return errors as Hytekk wrote...
D.
Success! The mistake was that I tried ipkg update without copying opt directory!
now i have mc.... :-) COOL!

Looks good, you should do a tutorial on that.

It's actually pretty simple, as written in kfurge's tutorial.
* Logon to the router via PuTTY as admin, then type exactly as here (replace [PASSWORD] with your password:
sudo bash -l
[PASSWORD]
(cd /; tar cf - opt) | (cd /shares/MYVOLUME1; tar xf -)
mount -o bind /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt /opt
ipkg update
ipkg upgrade
ipkg install mc
* finally, run the program with
mc
or
mc -c
in case it doesn't run in color
I could pretty easily make this configurable like wan SSH access.
- K.C.
I'd definitely use this if enabled.
BTW, thanks for the new package. Installed without problems.
Does anyone know where I can find a decent MLDonkey user guide for this version?
I'm trying to change the default port (BT-client_port) from 6882 to something else, but the changes won't take affect (press enter, reboot router). I am also applying Kfurge's commands:
4# Type "nvram set kc_bt_port=XXXXX"
5# Type "nvram commit"
Am I missing something?
Kfurge, should I be able to externally telnet to the router if I enable these settings? (From your setup guide).
To allow ssh access from the WAN (external) interface
1. Telnet or ssh to the router
2. Gain root access
3. Type "nvram set kc_ssh_wan_access=Yes"
4. Type "nvram commit"
5. Restart the router
I tried the commands above multiple times and keep getting:
Connecting To <WAN IP address>...Could not open connection to the host, on port 23: Connect failed
Kfurge, should I be able to externally telnet to the router if I enable these settings? (From your setup guide).
No. You can only access the router via SSH (port 22), not telnet (port 23). Telnet is open on the LAN interface only.

I've also installed 1.0.7.8 after making a mistake in my old rc.local with the 1.0.4.6 kfurge firmware.
Thanks Kfurge for that last change, it saved my day.
Now having got everything running for a couple of weeks now, I've played with MLdonkey and found it's performance less than satisfactory. I've now settled on Transmission which works very well.
I have only one problem at this stage and that is that ever since upgrading to 1.0.7.8, my USB connected Canon MP780 printer is printing extremely slowly. For example, the test page from WinXP takes about 10 minutes to print. If I try to print anything with any images on it, it's much worse. I note that top reports that most of the time there is at most 2MB of free memory.
I also note that upnp seems to have a much higher "time" than anything else, and seems to be using more CPU than anything else. I have no other upnp devices on the LAN.
A picture of the router running top shows this "higher time":
2523
Any suggestions? How can I disable upnp so that it isn't running; I want to experiment on what might be slowing the box down.
Thanks

Hi at all,
I just installed this great firmware and while finetuning it I made a non reproducable mistake :(
After rebooting I tried to login via telnet and I got:
login: cannot run /opt/bin/bash: No such file or directory
SSH login wont work also.
I installed the software again with the Asus Firmware Restoration Tool 'cause I hoped everything would be resetted but this also did not help.
Who can help me with this ?
Regards,
Extreme
I just installed this great firmware and while finetuning it I made a non reproducable mistake :(
Make sure to flash the latest image from here:
http://www.wl500g.info/files/asus/custom/kfurge/WL700gE_kc_1078_02.nas
Press and hold the copy button when the ready light blinks three times until it stops blinking. This will bypass any of your customizations and should allow the router to boot.

KFURGE.. I have never been able to add a user thru the web interface using any of your custom firmware.. is it a problem on my router ??
I use the web interface and it allows me to change the setting to user based access.. but then when I click on add user.. it allows me to enter username and password etc.. but when I click on apply.. it always fails and a error box pops up.. Somehow this problem goes away when I use the Asus Firmware..(both 4.6 and 7.8)..
Why could this be happening??
Hi kfurge,
thx for your hint -I did not manage to do it this way but found another:
after installing the original firmware all looks fine again.
Now - of course - I'll install yours again :)
Best regards and keep the good work up,
Extreme
Hi again,
I posted recently regarding issues with very slow printing. Given the lack of response I'm guessing that others aren't having the same problems, so I've started looking some more on my own.
My latest step has been to install the ASUS 1.0.7.8 firmware, thus losing all of the niceties of the KFurge (02) customisations.
Whilst I haven't tested the printing yet, the first thing I've noticed is that the overall performance of the box has improved dramatically. Browsing the internet is far more responsive. I ran the top command (not the nice one that kfurge provided unfortunately), and noted that the available memory was about 3.5MB. top didn't report the process names, which was a pain, so I don't know how much CPU upnp is using.
Will continue looking, though any suggestions are welcome. If printing works OK tonight, I'll put the KFurge version back in without any additional packages to see what happens then.

Somehow this problem goes away when I use the Asus Firmware..(both 4.6 and 7.8)..
Why could this be happening??
Maybe you should copy your /opt to /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt, as described here:
http://wl700g.homelinux.net/drupal/?q=node/187
See if that helps.
I have made and deleted a user yesterday without a problem. It also lets me specify to which shares the new user has access.

Hi again,
I posted recently regarding issues with very slow printing. Given the lack of response I'm guessing that others aren't having the same problems, so I've started looking some more on my own.
My latest step has been to install the ASUS 1.0.7.8 firmware, thus losing all of the niceties of the KFurge (02) customisations.
Whilst I haven't tested the printing yet, the first thing I've noticed is that the overall performance of the box has improved dramatically. Browsing the internet is far more responsive. I ran the top command (not the nice one that kfurge provided unfortunately), and noted that the available memory was about 3.5MB. top didn't report the process names, which was a pain, so I don't know how much CPU upnp is using.
Will continue looking, though any suggestions are welcome. If printing works OK tonight, I'll put the KFurge version back in without any additional packages to see what happens then.
eznet
Did you have a look here?
http://wl700g.homelinux.net/drupal/?q=node/197
I don't use a printer with the asus, but my the overall performance with the custom firmware is far better than in the 1.0.4.6 times.
Also I don't have UPNP running. Don't need it.

Works OK on my router.

Thanks Marc.. I'll test your solution..
No thanks to Kfurge.
i don't think that is the problem Marc.. I had covered that step when I followed the instructions on that website when I upgraded from 1.0.4.8 to 1.0.7.8..
Like I said.. I've had that problem even when I had the custom 1.0.4.6

It's weird. But you do have a work-around: install the original Asus firmware, create shares & users like you wish, install the custom firmware. Then you have both, although you won't be able to create another user.
What exactly is the error message? If I create a user, it tells me something like: user successfully created!.
Also, if you create a superfluous testuser with the original firmware, are you able to delete it with the custom firmware?
Do you have similar passwd files as I have:
[marc@Sneeuwwitje home]$ ls -all /etc/passwd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Dec 31 2001 /etc/passwd -> /tmp/passwd
[marc@Sneeuwwitje home]$ ls -all /tmp/passwd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Mar 2 13:10 /tmp/passwd -> /shares/MYVOLUME1/__pdc/passwd
If I create a user, the /shares/MYVOLUME1/__pdc/passwd file is altered, and that is reflected in /tmp/passwd and /etc/passwd that are only links.
Happy debugging :o
Marc
hey thanks buddy!.. I think that worked.. I installed the factory firmware.. created the users.. and then I over-wrote it with the custom firmware..and then i was able to manipulate the users.. like add and delete..
Thanks a bunch for your help!!.. regards..
now that I have a username with full access.. when I log in from terminal services.. I can only log in as root.. and not with the username and password that I created... Is that normal???

Ha, that's very nice to hear. I was just guessing for you, only if I guess for myself, it never helps.
I have still my problem with NFS, and nobody has reacted so far. Buh. Still waiting for some other Linux user that wants to try NFS...
Now, your problem is over, but we don't know what the culprit was...
Anyway, enjoy
Marc

No. But (again) what is the message? Did you create a home directory for that user? Is that reflected in /etc/passwd? What happens, if you do, after logging in as root:
sudo -u marc bash
with marc replaced with your user name?
In my passwd I have:
marc:-passwordgarbage-:35000:42000:marc:/opt/home/marc:/opt/bin/bash
and I have created /opt/home/marc.
See, questions, questions.
happy debugging

No, I hadn't seen the response there. I have been watching it but obviously not actively enough.
Since my last post I tested the printing, and it was still very slow. I also finally opened my eyes long enough to notice the UPNP switch in the configuration, so that has been killed and can no longer be blamed.
I'm now back to running the 1.0.7.8 (custom), and have no idea beyond the suggestion to install CUPS, which last time I looked, seemed quite involved in it's setup.
Thanks though.
Ok, so I haven't fixed the original problem. I still don't know why the default print deamon is performing so badly with 1.0.7.8, but I can report that after an hours work with the latest version of CUPS (thanks for the suggestion KFurge), I now have it running, and printing at speeds that are more than satisfactory.
The only thing I haven't worked out yet with CUPS is how to access the web interface from the local LAN without first having to establish an SSL connection via PUTTY and tunnelling in.
Printing works a treat. When I get a chance in the next week, I'll write up the steps I took and add them to another thread on this forum that has a great deal of discussion about getting CUPS running.
Thanks for your help.

Are there som funktion to make back/restore of my config settings in
you'r new custom firmware ?
I need it.
Asus firmware don't have the option on the webinterface.
Maybe you have som tip via telnet to do that.

Hi Kfurge.
How can we customize this file. Several packages need this (imap, saned, ...)?

Hi,
As Asus did not provide such function, I don't think that KFurge will be able to do that. I know however that the other firmwares as open wrt (kamikaze etc) do have such functionality.
Meanwhile, looking around in /tmp with telnet, I noticed a file 'settings' that I copied to my home directory, and it seems to contain every setting I can see in the web interface. However, this file disappears also irregularly.
I don't think it will serve as a restore possibility, but you can find your settings in it. The /tmp directory contains many more files with settings. For instance, nas.lan.conf has your WPA-password.

Marc

Use "mount -o bind" to mount another /etc over the top of the existing one. I put making /etc/services a symlink on my todo list for a future release.

Glad CUPS is working for you. I have it working on my router as well. Not sure why you can't connect to it, though. I have no problems connecting to mine (192.168.1.1:631) from the LAN.

Thank you Kfurge for the work put into your version and the great tutorials on installing it. As I am an experience idiot with Linux I have followed your tutorials and all is good.
One problem though is that i cannot write things to the internal drive when using windows explorer and the network devices windows finds. It says I do not have the right.
I worked out the "cp" command and attached an USB drive to the router and copied files that way, without needing sudo.
So why can I not copy them the old (new) way from a computer and windows networks.
So why can I not copy them the old (new) way from a computer and windows networks.
The directory permissions are probably not right. If you are not too concerned with security, go right above the directory that's being shared and type:
chmod -R 777 ./YOUR_DIRECTORY_NAME
This will set wide-open permissions on the primary directory, files, and subdirectories and set all files are readable and writable by anyone.
- K.C.
Yes my linix command crash course has led me to the chmod command. And I have done exactly what you have said only worse: I did it all the way along.
chmod -R ugo=rwx /shares
but still no luck.
OOPPPPS you need to reboot and then the above worked. Ok if anyone would like to give me a little hint about which directory I need to give permissions to and which I can reverse to what it was like before?

How to do that (looking around in /tmp with telnet)
i can log in to telnet but nothing else.
Please guide me.

Hmm, this is not the right place for such things I'm afraid. Maybe you could ask DARBID what he did to do the linux crash course?
Try Google with Linux newbie or Linux commands or so.
I found this for instance:
http://linux-newbie.sunsite.dk/html/lnag.html#6.Linux%20Shortcuts%20and%20Commands|out line
You really can benefit from some basic understanding.
Start with:
ls (= dir)
ls -all
man ls
cd
pwd

Hello. My provider gives two protocols type: PPPoE(Internet) and Static IP (Local Resource). What should i do to use both of them together?

Brrrr. Ok, the hint. /shares/MYVOLUME1/MYSHARE1/<your choice>
Because you took /shares you have changed the rights for all there is. Apart from starting all over I don't think it's easy to revert your changes.
But maybe someone pops up with a script to do so.

Dear KFurge,
Can you tell why the Asus takes so long to reach the point where the ready light blinks? It takes a mere 3 minutes. Is it busy to check the filesystem, or what?
Also, is it possible (in the next relaese) to get rid of the first telnet deamon? It is unsafe, and it confuses many people when 'you' start the safer version. This counts more because it takes so long to boot.
And why is the ready light on, long before it executes my rc.local? What does ready mean here?
Ok, questions you might not know answers for, but I'll appreciate it if you have some. :)
Another question. When I log in as myself (admin), I have KCSHELL as variable, because I made a .profile in /opt/home/marc. I also did this for root, that has /opt/home/root as home dir. Now with sudo bash -l I have KCSHELL as root. But, you guess, after rebooting the home-dir of root is changed to /, no .profile is executed, and hence I don't have KCSHELL after sudo bash -l.
I found that /opt/etc/init.kc/fix_passwd.sh is to blame...

Marc

Not an expert here. But I think you miss the ALL-part (and some defaults).
If you log in as admin (you'd better change this, make it you first name or so, and CHANGE the default password), admin is not listed in the sudoers file, so it can not do this.
Maybe I changed my sudoers file way back:
ls -l /opt/etc/sudoers
-r--r----- 1 root root 1180 Mar 4 2007 /opt/etc/sudoers
Thinking this over, it might be a good idea to replace ALL ALL=(ALL) ALL with something like marc ALL=(ALL) ALL. But I must stress that I'm not an expert. I always use su :eek: in Suse as a (nasty) habit.

First, admin is not root. You should login as root, or sudo bash -l to get root-rights
Second, why did you put twonky in the standard share directory? I have installed mine in /opt/share/TwonkyMedia, so that it is not reachable with smb. That's more save. If I recall, I just unzipped twonkymedia-mss-4.4.4.zip, and in my rc.local I have:

If you mean that you try to do this via SMB sharing, then it has to deal with SMB security of the Asus, of which I don't know anything.:p
Anyway, with SMB I can delete stuff in the standard directories (music, photo etc), but not in others.:confused:
But if you telnet to your asus, login as root or become root (sudo bash -l), it will make all things possible. Remove with
rm -R /shares/MYVOLUME1/MYSHARE1/Twonkyvision
I assume you have KFurge custom 1.0.7.8 firmware running.:D

I manged to delete the directory the way u said...

I seem to be having a recurring problem with the passwd file on the new firmware.
I cannot seem to get the opt/home/username to work with pbsa access?
My question is it possible to have the system running on password based access and to be able to use dropbear for logging in through putty?
If i use pbsa the system overwrites the passwd file and I cannot log in.
I have noted from previous threads that there is no __pdc file either which looks odd.
I have been able to set up system as either psba or usba but I wonder is it possible to have a bit of both??
Hi, I figured it out, seems to be with the firmware, had it downloaded for a while reflashed a new one and all is well
I made a mistake last night, and now i am not able to loging using telnet
(none) login: admin

(none) login: admin

hoe do i recover from this problem , i tried to install the fimware again , with no luck......
also tried to flash to 2.0.0.7 firmware and back again, but no luck either..
is there anyway to login and maybe change/delete the password list/file ?

The (none) part should be the name of your asus, default WL700ge or so. But it is only set after a long while after start (> 3mins)
If I were you, I should try to switch from PBSA to UBSA or vice versa, maybe that helps.

Thx for replying so quickly but unfortunatly it did not help....................

But when i instal firmware 2.0.0.7 i am able to telnet to the router.
but when i go back to kfurge 1.0.7.8 i still have the same problem.
any other good ideas ?

Ok other good ideas?
With Kfurge 1.0.7.8 (the latest) you have to wait for about 3 minutes after booting the Asus before the ready lights starts to blink. It will shine all the time before that moment. When it blinks, press the copy button and hold it until the ready light stops blinking.
Then the default rc.local will be executed, your /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt will not be placed over /opt, and well, this should lead to a state that telnet is possible.
Second idea: if you can telnet with firmware 2.0.0.7 (this is an extremely dangerous firmware, and if I were you, I would remove the WAN-cable before installing 2.0.0.7), you should be able to do something about /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt/etc/rc.local. Maybe rename it or so (mv rc.local rc.vocal)
Good luck

No, that is, shares/MYVOLUME1/opt/etc/rc.local is no directory, but a file :o. To get there, type:
cd /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt/etc
cat rc.local
Cat is similar to type in DOS
then
mv rc.local rc.vocal or something you like better to rename this stuff :rolleyes:.
Good luck,
Marc
Yesterday i installed WinSCP, made a new connection withe the "SCP" protocol and was able to move, copy filles much easier...
so now i have twonky in the opt/share/twonkymedia directory
also found out that when a failure occured, for example i screwd up my rc.local and i wanted to login using putty i could not loging any more under the user admin.
(none) login: admin
Password:
Login incorrect
but with the user root i was able to loging in and changed back the rc.local
to original
(none) login: root
now the only thing left to do is to start twonky, automatic.
i have read some threads and changed rc.local
but with no luck.
when is start twonky manually.
i get this :
WL700gE login: root
Password:
[root@WL700gE /]$ cd opt/share/twonkymedia
[root@WL700gE twonkymedia]$
[root@WL700gE twonkymedia]$ ./twonkymedia
./twonkymedia: /opt/lib/libpthread.so.0: no version information available (required by ./twonkymedia)
Segmentation fault
[root@WL700gE twonkymedia]$
[root@WL700gE twonkymedia]$
but now when i first type in this line -> export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/opt/lib
i am able to start the server.
with "ps"commando i can see what programmas are running and twonky is one of them.
[root@WL700gE twonkymedia]$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/opt/lib
[root@WL700gE twonkymedia]$

so how do i modify te rc.local the correct way i tried, the code what was posted but with no luck.....
Gegroet Rick. :):):)
Hi Rick,
To start Twonky automatically, you must start it before changing libraries in rc.local. So here is the first part of my rc.local
#!/opt/bin/bash
#############
# Get nvram variables
#############
pool=`nvram get apps_pool`
share=`nvram get apps_share`
kc_spin_down_hdd=`nvram get kc_spin_down_hdd`
#############
# Misc defines
#############
internal_hdd=/dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc
#############
# These items only run once at power up
#############
if [ ! -f /tmp/rc.local.done ]; then
#Start Twonkymedia, werkt met originele library_path
/opt/share/TwonkyMedia/twonkymedia &
export PATH=/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/lib:/apps/lib:/apps/usr/gift-nasoc/lib
export KCSHELL=/opt/bin/bash
This works for me, you must adjust the directory for Twonky to your setup, Linux is case sensitive. :cool:
Good luck,
Marc
oke thx..
i`ll give this a try but for now i will leave it as its is am happy the router is finally working correct , with twonky.
so the next challenge i am facing is installing SABnzb.
Hope everything goes as told on :

Greetings. Rick
I have set my router to WAN Acces.
but to day i saw in my log file :
Apr 10 06:02:05 dropbear[1172]: exit before auth: Disconnect received
Apr 10 06:02:06 dropbear[1173]: login attempt for nonexistent user from 194.169.227.233:41438
Apr 10 06:02:07 dropbear[1173]: exit before auth: Disconnect received
Apr 10 06:02:08 dropbear[1174]: login attempt for nonexistent user from 194.169.227.233:41649
etc. etc etc.
does this means some is trying to login in to my router, at random port numbers ????
because there are several attemps with diffrent port numbers.
greetings Rick

Thanks in advance.
Could you do some investigation yourself?
Maybe login with ssh and try a random password for root, what does the log then say? :p
Maybe you could conclude then that someone evil is trying to get in!
Maybe you could edit your loooooooong quote a bit and make it shrtr.

Your being Hacked.
Happens a lot.
Ensure you keep dropbear with password on and look at settings for your VSFTPD sometimes they will try to get in that way as well.
If your additionally worried install fail2ban as an additional measure.
I want to start Dovecot automatic at boot up.
How can I do that in rc.local.
I tryed this several times, different ways but it won't start.
When I start Dovecot manual it works fine.
Someone there who can help me.

Two things generally are to blame for startup failures in rc.local:
1) Either your PATH, or some other environment variable, is not properly configured. Make sure all the environment matches the one your have when you login.
2) The busybox shell which executes rc.local is not able to execute the startup script for the program. Add this line to rc.local prior to executing the startup script for your application: "export KCSHELL=/opt/bin/bash". This will use bash instead of the busybox shell for every instance of /bin/sh.
- K.C.
Thanks KC for your answer.
But it don`t work this way.
Is there maybe an other way to start Dovecot automatic.
"ipkg update" will not work for me. (WL700gE_kc_1078_02.nas)
I will install the syslog-ng, please help!

What's the error message?
LK
sorry for the missing err msg. i'll post it in the evening when i'm at home :-)
it was something like wget: missing URL
wget Ussage: bla bla
I also tried wget -d -P http://nslu2..../Packages.gz, but the same err. msg.
Here is the error msg:
---
[root@server /]$ ipkg update

I've tried to post my error msg yesterday. but it didn't work *?*
The error is, that I (root) did not have write permission! "ipkg update" can not write. "ls -la" or "mount" shows me that I have wirte permission. "touch test.txt" did not work - no permission !?!
When I open a file (for ex. etc/hosts) and edit it. That works. I can edit and save it back.
What is that, that the root user does not have write permission.:confused:

Probably this:
without copying /opt to /shares/MYVOLUME1/opt you will be left with a read-only, not-writable directory /opt.

Ok, thank you. I'll try it.
Another question: In the original ASUS firmware only the generated user can access the ftp. but in kc's also the admin can log in.
where can I configure that, that only those users which I have "made" can log in to the ftp?
OK, thank you. worked great - but:
now, after i could update and upgrade all the pakages. i can not login via ssh. only telnet. how can i fix this? thanks a lot!

I did what you did. That is, first I logged in with ssh. No problem.
Then I did ipkg update. No problem.
The I did ipkg upgrade. Problem....
I had my Asus left alone quite a while, so apparently also dropbear (that does the ssh shuffle) was upgraded. When ipkg tried to configure it, I got:
Configuring dropbear
mkdir: cannot create directory '/root': Operation not permitted
and I was thrown out!
And like you I could not get in anymore with ssh. After login in with telnet I could not do sudo.
To fix this:
Login with telnet as root
do ipkg upgrade once more. You'll notice that ipkg does it all over. But now it can finish gracefully.
Here ends my lesson. Ugh, that is wrong. Should we have to conclude that upgrading is only safe with telnet?

Marc
Configuring dropbear
mkdir: cannot create directory '/root': Operation not permitted
That's the same msg i get.
But when i try again with telnet, ipkg sad that there is no upgrade needed.
The only way that helps me is to remove the opt directory from shares/MY...
reboot and copy the opt again.
if i directly upgrade ipkg from telnet it shows the same err msg again.
when i upgrade ipkg without upgrading dropbear and sudo (keep current version) than its ok. but also it shows the err msg!

I had the same experience when I run ipkg upgrade. I have tried to re-set administrator password via web interface and my SSH is back now. Also one has to keep in mind that it takes pretty a while when the router boots up and dropbear is started (something like 3-4min).
i know that ;)
but in my case it is not a password problem. the ssh port 22 is rejected.
i'm not a pro in linux - only a greenhorn :o
so i do not know a lot about that what ipkg does or what i can do to reconfigure dropbear.
i only want to keep my packages up to date and install and configure syslog-ng. i found a thread for installing and configure syslog-ng. but that didnt work for me.
so i'll keep try'in :D
and thanks a lot for your help!

Do you mean this thread?
http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=10394
I have syslog-ng installed and configured it with this info. (Although I never bothered to get it running, because i don't use the Asus as my primary router)

You're right.
For what ist?
2. edit the postinstall-script - take no effect
3. finish the ipkg installation - take no effect
EDIT: Now it works...
