Hi all,
i updated to the new Version of olegs firmware following chapter 16 of my howto.
One single problem:
My WL-HDD was not responding after step 4. So i pulled the plug after 30 mins and then it worked fine.
Following my Howto after that and all went fine.
You need to substitute the real time clock driver!
The HowTo is updated.

wengi,
Thanks so much for your tutorial! An MS Geek can't do it without the help of you and marcesium.
And Oleg, thanks for the great firmware. It's why I bought this router! :D
how can i get a report daily about loggin hours on ssh?
Simplest way is:
cat /tmp/syslog.log |grep dropbear
Hi,
only to correct it. The path to the log is different if you installed with my howto:wengiCode:[admin@blechbuechse root]$ cat /opt/var/log/messages | grep -i dropbear
Jan 1 01:00:08 post-boot: starting dropbear:
Jan 1 01:00:08 dropbear[93]: Running in background
Jan 6 10:24:47 dropbear[3496]: password auth succeeded for 'admin' from ::ffff:192.168.1.21:1148
[admin@blechbuechse root]$
wengi, it's a good idea to put a symlink:
Then you will be able to see log from the web-IF, and the above statements will be correct.PHP Code:ln -s /opt/var/log/messages /tmp/syslog.log
This is indeed a very good idea!!!
Didn't think about it until now.
Thanks :cool:
wengi
Hi all,
I made a little change in the syslog config.
There are two lines added to /opt/etc/init.d/S05syslogd:
Background:Code:# remove old syslog.log
rm /tmp/syslog.log
# add symlink so log is available at old location (e.g. for webinterface)
ln -s /opt/var/log/messages /tmp/syslog.log
/sbin/syslogd -m 0 -O /opt/var/log/messages -S -l 7
syslog is now linked to /tmp/syslog.log.
In result the syslog is viewable in the webinterface again.
Howto is updated
Thanks to al37919 for this.

Hi Wengi,
Have just finished re-setting up my asus wlg500p with a USB WD Passport 250GB.
I wanted to replace the old USB harddisk (which worked for a year - no problems) with one that needed no external power supply.
Anyway, I was revisiting these forums and just wanted to thank you again for all your great posts - they are excellent!

Hi,
nice to hear that. Thank you ;)

so i could go on with the tutorial.
But at Part 9. TRANSMISSION (The torrent Client)
i have a prolbem at the end. the problem is by typing:
192.168.1.150:8008/cgi-bin/transmission.cgi
i get the message:
that's dutch for:Code:Kan geen verbinding maken
Firefox kan geen verbinding maken met de server op 192.168.1.150:8008.

Cannot make connection
Firecox cannot connect the server on 192.168.1.150:8008
Can you help me with these 2 problems?
If your wive can bring up the patience again :)
I hope,
greetings Emiel
yes Im sure. there are 3 partitions exactly. ntfs is working under win xp, there is no bad sectors on it.Quote:

Your problem ist rc.unslung!! The script is not executed.

- syslog is not logging to /opt/var...
- busybox httpd is not running with transmission webinterface.
Check your post-boot if rc.unslung is started.
Check the content of rc.unslung
Make sur rc.unslung is executable
@Syl
There is something wrong with your partition table.Code:Jan 1 00:00:06 kernel: unable to read partition table
Jan 1 00:00:06 kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 01:03.2-2 address 2
I recommend deleting the partitions and recreate them directly on the asus.
wengi
WENGI VIELEN DANK!!
Thanks for your answer!
No problem it was a day later, it gives me more time to think about it ;)
Now i have solved the problem down here ( How? use in the webinterface a password, if you leave it blank, then it doesn't work!)
Now, i have a little problem with 10. SAMBA2
i have done that one, and when i use ps axf everything is running well, but when i put in 192.168.1.150:901 ( in web ). He cannot make connection:
I think i have problems with logging in. or the IP or your following text:Code:401 Bad Authorization
username or password incorrect
This is my script:Code:You should cutomize the IP settings as you need them and exchange "user = root" with admin -> "user = admin".
My homenetwork ( maybe interesting to know )PHP Code:service swat
{
port = 901
socket_type = stream
wait = no
only_from = localhost 192.168.1.1/24
user = admin
server = /opt/sbin/swat
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = No
}
~
the modemcable goes to my Linksys WRT54G
i connected 2 pc's with this one, and one UTP cable is going to 1 LAN port of my Asus WL500gp. In another LAN port i plugged another UTP for one pc ( so, i can see if the router has got internet yes or no ) :)
the WRT54G ip is 192.168.1.1
the WL500GP ip is 192.168.1.150
My username to get with web or putty in is admin
( i changed the password, as you said in your tut)
so, how does my vi /opt/etc/xinetd.d/swat has to look like?
I tried many things, but i think not the good one.
thanks for your help offcourse :)
Hello, everyone..
Here i am back again :)
i have got the next problem:
I've got 2 torrents in my Transmiossion.cgi, they are waiting now for about 1 hour, but the won't download. They are in the Active menu.
Progress: 0.00 %, 0 peers, dl from 0 (0.00 KB/s), ul to 0 (0.00 KB/s) Start: 01 Jan 01:01 End: 01 Jan 01:02 uploaded: 0.0 MB
How can i fix this problem, i think this is my last problem with Transmission, So i hope it's the last one, i am close to the end!
Thanks for helping and solving my last problem
EDIT:
i get the following information:
an 1 01:05:45 transmissiond[362]: Transmission daemon 1.01+ (4684) started - http://transmission.m0k.org/ at port 65534

and one extra question,
how can i put the right time in the router?
thanks for helping
Hi,
it is always a good idea to test transmission with a 100% working torrent file.
E.g. use OpenOffice as torrent: http://distribution.openoffice.org/p2p/index.html
If this does not work you will have to check if the port is opened and reachable.
For time adjustment: Use Webinterface or ntpclient in shell.
wengi
EVERYTHING IS WORKING NOW!!!
Thanks a lot, i had one problem because i had 2 routers, and a modem.
I put the wrong default gateway in my Asus,
I told ( with that gateway ) he had to go the modem. but he had to go to the wrt54g router, because there was the port forwarding.
But anyway
Many thanks..
(shy) do you have also made a Tutorial for a webserver with php and mysql on my router??
So i can put here a online DVD Sofware on it ( http://vcddb.konni.com/
with this software i can make my own DVD Librarie :) See the link for information
Very thanks for helping
Hi,
no, i have no howto for php/mysql. But there are some postings in the forum about this.
Just to have it mentioned: An installation of apache / php / mysql will REALLY slow down you asus. And i mean slow!
But as i read, it can work.
Just give it a try.
wengi
Ok, Thanks for looking around!Quote:

Greetings Arbadelli
Hi,
you can use any Tut you want.
Only one important thing: You allready have the "better ipkg" that is mentioned by macsat (http://www.macsat.com/macsat/content/view/73/29/).
You can directly start with " ipkg install mysql"
If you are going to change the username from "admin" to "root" there is one more thing:
You will also have to change your samba config to use "root" as guest account.
Have fun.
wengi
Hi there!
At the Step 2 (the ping commands) I can see that I don't have internet access on my asus. :'o(
After I connected with telnet, when I do ping www.google.com I have "UNKNOWN HOST"
and when I put the IP adress of the google server, I have "NETWORK UNREACHABLE"
The bizarre thing is that the computers connected to the Asus receive an IP adress and have access to the Internet without any problem...
I have no idea what and where I should look to find a solution. Anybody can help me in telling me where I should investigate?
Thanks!
PS: I use the firmware 1.9.2.7-8 and I don't use the WAN port. I use the LAN only.
Me again...
I did the ROUTE command and a friend told me that the Gateway was missing... so I did the following command:
route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 gw 192.168.1.1 dev br0
and then I could access internet from my asus box...
and do a ping on an ip of an internet website.
but each time I restart the asus, it looses the information :(
1. Why do I have to put the gateway by hand? Is there a filed I missed in the web interface`?
2. If I cannot use the webinterface... is there any config where I can save that new route table?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Hi,
in -8 and later firmwares you have to set the default gateway in the webinterface.
IP Config -> LAN -> default gateway
This will do the job :)
wengi
Edit: I changed the text in the HowTo to make this more clear.
Thank a lot for your answer! :)
I have the firmware 1.9.7.2-8, but ( :( :( )
in "IP Config", I don't have only "LAN"
it is actually "WAN & LAN"
so I suppose it is what you meant...
so then, in "WAN & LAN" I don't use WAN, so the only thing I can configure are:
->Host Name
->Ip Address
->Subnet Mask
no "default gateway" :(
I am lost... sniff!
EDIT: by the way, I have a WL500g Premium, maybe that is the problem?
Hi,
Just to get it right: The asus is connected to a modem and acts as router or do you have another router doing the internet stuff?
wengi
HI!
I'm newbie. I can't download IPKG Packet .
wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/op...-12_mipsel.ipk
gives a message:
wget: server returned error 404: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
What's the problem? What make I wrong?
Thanks
accsi
Hi,
as mentioned in the german thread:
http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/ is not reachable atm.
Not your fault. Just wait.
wengi
EDIT: Updated HowTo due to new version of uclib.
Thank you for your answer Wengi!
Sorry for the delay, I was sick...
To answer your question, my asus is connected to a modem-router that does everything concerning internet.
Does it answer your question?
Thanks again for your help!
Hi,
i think you operation mode is the wrong one.
Do the following:
- Make sure that webinterface -> System Setup -> Operation Mode is set to "Access Point"
- Make sure that webinterface -> IP Config -> LAN is set correctly corresponding to your network/router.
wengi
this firmware can be user with download master?
LE: *used
Hi,
no, the oleg firmware does not include the download master.
(If this was your question, 'cause it is not that clear)
wengi
DM wont work on oleg.
You need transmission to download torrents.
Its better than DM but you need to put some time into configuration :)
thx for your answers.
Now i have another :-s, i hope u don't mind.
Let's say i wanna use my router as torret client, lamp server and , of course, as a router. i would like to know if it has the power to do so much, and if it does, please tell me an aprox. number of torrents that i should let active in the same tine in the transmission conf.
LE: I managed to install a lamp, but i can not acces my web server from net.
In lan i have 192.168.10.0/24. I made PF from 80->192.168.10.1:8080. I can acces it from inside my net home with the public ip, but when somebody else try to access it, there si no answer. Any idea?
I'm back with another problem:
Now i have a seccond net connection and woul like to pass imap/browsing trough one, and all what means torrents/dc++ trough the second(this is one with larger metro bandwith).
Can i doit with this router? And if someone knows any tutorial for this... please pot it...
This depends on what you want to do and is mainly a routing problem. I would suggest opening a new thread for this.Quote:

I had one USB HD connected to my WL500gP, now I have two:
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 151705660 41080112 102919340 29% /opt
/dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 976521536 84110528 892411008 9% /tmp/mnt
Sometimes they will swap-
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 151705660 41080112 102919340 29% /tmp/mnt
/dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 976521536 84110528 892411008 9% /opt
How this can be prevented?
Thanks.
I was following the tutorial (btw, exquisite job man, congrats - I'm a linux noob and I could follow it with no problem at all...until this one) and when I was about to install transmission I got the following error
[admin@(none) root]$ ipkg install logrotate

I would like to know if there's something that I can do... To me it looks like there's a problem with the website where wget gets everything. I am writing from the same station, so internet's working fine...
Please advise...
Hi,
you are right.
This was an error with the website. (http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/op.../cross/stable/)
But it is working here.
Try again.
@piezomotor
Just quick and dirty:
Create a file on one HDD (e.g. hdd1.tmp)
Check if this file exists after mount. If not: unmount and mount the other hdd.
This is not a good solution but it should work. I remeber that i read about this prob in the forums. Do a search.
