Sorry guys, transmission is working goodbut samba2 webpage wont load. I am not sure if what I did is right so someone else might pick it up. I changed this setting in this file: /opt/etc/xinetd.conf to adjust my ip settings so where it use to say 172.16.0.0. I changed it to mine which 192.169.0.67/73

only_from = localhost 10.0.0.0/8 192.169.67.73/12 192.168.0.0/16
change to your subnet accordingly and tighten security!
Successfully terminated.

Also I changed the file as per the samba config file to access the browser to 192.169.0.67/73.

Is this correct ? Is this why samba2 wont load. I looked if samba and xinetd were running and they are. So I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Thank in advance.

Wengi thanks alot for the transmission help.

hi, i want to ask, why can't i acess transmission from outside?
this is my json.conf

{
"blocklist-enabled": 1,
"download-dir": "/tmp/harddisk/transmission/download",
"download-limit": 100,
"download-limit-enabled": 0,
"encryption": 1,
"max-peers-global": 200,
"peer-port": 51413,
"pex-enabled": 1,

}

and how to redirect from port 3031 to 22 (i want to acess my ssh)
this is my post-firewall

#!/bin/sh
## FIREWALL
## set default policy
iptables -P INPUT DROP
## Allow access to various router services from WAN
for P in 3031 51413 9091; do
  iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --syn -i "$1" --dport $P -j ACCEPT
done
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 3031 \
-j REDIRECT --to-port 22

anything wrong?

[GS_IT]

Questiion about IP tables and revconnect in windows.
I'm using revconnect in Windows, but he isn't working.
the question is:
how in iptables forward port 1024 to specified IP ( IP of my table PC)?
Thank You

[wengi]

Hi,

see first page, chapter 16. "Open SSH port to Internet (if directly connected)"

simply change the port number.

when I browse network, all I can see is my homepage. What i must change, to wiev web from local PC?

Thanks

Hi Wengi,

I have been running 2 WL-HDD 2.5 with the oleg's firmware 1.9.2.7-9 for almost 6 months now. I set them up exactly as you you wrote in this thread, for torrent downloading using transmission. I have to say your guide is very accurate and detailed. Thank you very much for your work. I really really appreciate it!

The first WL-HDD is using a 4GB old hard drive I took out from a very old Toshiba laptop. Even though the drive is very loud, it's been running just fine, the noise doesn't bother to me, because it's in the basement in the utility room. The second WL-HDD is using a new 160GB Samsung internal hard drive, it's quiet, and problematic. At first, I partitioned the drive as 512MB(swap)/10GB(/opt)/149.5GB(for everything else), the unit ran fine until it reached the 25th mount for the hard drive, e2fsck wanted to scan the 3rd partition, but it ran for more than 3 days, I had to kill it. I tried it a few times, it didn't work. So I thought it must be something I did wrong. So I followed your guide again from the very beginning, re-did the whole thing from the scratch.

Same thing happened, after the 3rd partition got mounted 25 times, it launched e2fsck, and it ran forever. This time I am sure it the problem with the firmware, maybe the partition is just too big for this little WL-HDD? (got be, because my 4GB WL-HDD is still running strong even after 50 reboots) So I again re-did the whole thing, but this time split the 3rd partition in half, so it's only 75GB. Sadly, it didn't fix the problem, it occurs again after the partition got mounted 25 times. After googling, I found this:
http://http://www.techds.in/2009/05/...partition.html
I am just wondering here, did you (or anybody reading this post) experience anything like this? Is there a work-around I can try? I think re-build a package is just too much for me.

Hi,

i did not experience this behaviour until now.
The link you provided adresses e2fsprogs-1.35. We are using a newer version.

[admin@blechbuechse root]$ ipkg list_installed | grep -i e2
e2fslibs - 1.41.4-1 - Ext2 Filesystem Libraries
e2fsprogs - 1.41.4-1 - Ext2 Filesystem Utilities
e2tools - 0.0.16-3 - Ext2 tools

This bug _should_ be solved.

Did you update your system to the newest version (ipkg update/upgrade)?

Hi Wengi, thank you for your quick reply. As usual, you are always there to help!

I ran "ipkg list_installed | grep -i e2", but it didn't return anything on both of my WL-HDDs. I am not running the latest firmware per se, because I am using WL-HDD 2.5, the "latest" firmware for it is 1.9.2.7-9. Am I missing some packages?
