    Firmware v1.8.1.7 CR3 [Oleg]

    New firmware available for
    WL500g
    WL500gx
    WLHDD
    WL500b
    WL500bv2
    WL300g
    Sources and other info available here.

    Changes:
    • Preliminarily WL-HDD support, www pages credits are going to Antiloop (ide partitions does not get mounted automatically, except when USB drive is attached; most of the wl500g functionality is included).Thanks to Antiloop for performing various ide related testing (16 test versions evaluated)
    • Fixed firewall rules with virtual servers enabled
    • Added 802.11g LRS mode
    • Updated samba to 1.9.18p10 (latest from the old 1.9 series)
    • Fixed 1.8.1.7-2a second NTP server field problem
    • Changed makefiles, so firmware could be now recompiled with no root privileges, fixed various things to enable faster compiling and reliable packaging
    • Added nls support for russian codepages 866 and 1251 (use nvram set usb_vfat_options=codepage=866,iocharset=cp1251 for correct filenames handling)
    • Changed pppoe daemon behaviour - it's should now try reconnect as many times as needed
    • Updated dnsmasq to 2.17, probably static leases (manual IP assignment) will work better
    • Updated busybox to 1.00, added 2 new applets: fdisk and wget
    • Added mke2fs and e2fsck programs from the e2fsprogs package
    • Optimized stupid-ftpd performance for both upload and download


    Root fs is no longer available as separate download - instructions for making root fs is updated.

    Samba now supports real users with their passwords, documentation is yet to come.
    My current files are follow (remember to add modified files to flashfs):
    Code:
    [root@wl500g etc]$ cat /etc/passwd
    root:$1$$LMuXuAPfSStW8rhnojbc41:0:0:root:/usr/local/root:/bin/sh
    nobody:x:99:99:nobody:/:/sbin/nologin
    oleg:x:100:100:oleg:/tmp/harddisk:/sbin/nologin
    nk:x:100:100:nk:/tmp/harddisk:/sbin/nologin
     
    [root@wl500g etc]$ cat /etc/smbpasswd
    # Samba SMB password file
    root:0:6F9F65B23B4B48E7613E8293942509F0:7741DF71C7  48ABCC71C6C263B99C2B08:root:/usr/local/root:/bin/sh
    oleg:100:9EE3D0611811EA5C417EAF50CEAC29C3:F3AC46A6  CB04CB32FE1C77A025CF6C53:oleg:/tmp/harddisk:/sbin/nologin
    nk:100:8A5D3EB54FF11B0DB79AE2610DF89D4C:9FDB1AFF30  84809671715D8AE948AA35:nk:/tmp/harddisk:/sbin/nologin
    [root@wl500g etc]$ cat /etc/smbusers
    root = administrator
    [root@wl500g etc]$ cat /etc/smb.conf
    [global]
            workgroup = WORKGROUP
            guest account = nobody
            security = user
            encrypt passwords = yes
            log level = 1
            max log size = 100
            username map = /etc/smbusers
            client code page = 866
            character set = 1251
    [share]
            path = /tmp/harddisk
            writable = yes
    [root$]
            path = /
            writable = yes
    [root@wl500g etc]$
