root fs

New custom firmware and accompanying sources (11 MBytes) for building it, root fs if you need this.

Differences with 1.7.5.6-3

• Support for ov518 cameras (compression)
• New timezone (Azores Islands)
• Updated dnsmasq to 2.8
• Changes in the ddns script to prevent abuse after reboot
• Several new applets in busybox, including du, df and httpd (named busybox_httpd)
• Samba 1.9.17p5, not enabled by default. Important notice: the samba is totally unsupported, use on your own risk! How to use samba: 1) be sure you've specified hostname in the LAN IP Setting (this name will used be by samba); 2) add the following to your bootCmds:
  

  nvram bootCmdS="/usr/sbin/smbd -D"
  nvram bootCmdN="/usr/sbin/nmbd -D"
  nvram commit
  reboot

  Once you've rebooted your wl500g should appear in workgroup called WORKGROUP and present you a share named "share". This share is read-only view of your usb drive (/mnt/usbfs). There is also second invisible share called "share$" which is in the fact the read/write view of /mnt/usbfs. No other access restriction present.

looks very nice again Oleg!!!

Just trying to figure out busybox_httpd. How can I provide acces from WAN to the webserver. Do I need portforwardings?

Any tips on how to run asp's and for a good httpd.conf?

Thanxz a lot for doing all this for us!

* Typical usage:
* for non root user
* httpd -p 8080 -h $HOME/public_html
* or for daemon start from rc script with uid=0:
* httpd -u www
* This is equivalent if www user have uid=80 to
* httpd -p 80 -u 80 -h /www -c /etc/httpd.conf -r "Web Server Authentication"
*
*
* When a url contains "cgi-bin" it is assumed to be a cgi script. The
* server changes directory to the location of the script and executes it
* after setting QUERY_STRING and other environment variables.
*
* The server can also be invoked as a url arg decoder and html text encoder
* as follows:
* foo=`httpd -d $foo` # decode "Hello%20World" as "Hello World"
* bar=`httpd -e "<Hello World>"` # encode as "&#60Hello&#32World&#62"
* Note that url encoding for arguments is not the same as html encoding for
* presentation. -d decodes a url-encoded argument while -e encodes in html
* for page display.
*
* httpd.conf has the following format:
*
* A:172.20. # Allow address from 172.20.0.0/16
* A:10.0.0.0/25 # Allow any address from 10.0.0.0-10.0.0.127
* A:10.0.0.0/255.255.255.128 # Allow any address that previous set
* A:127.0.0.1 # Allow local loopback connections
* D:* # Deny from other IP connections
* /cgi-bin:foo:bar # Require user foo, pwd bar on urls starting with /cgi-bin/
* /adm:admin:setup # Require user admin, pwd setup on urls starting with /adm/
* /adm:toor:PaSsWd # or user toor, pwd PaSsWd on urls starting with /adm/
* .au:audio/basic # additional mime type for audio.au files
*
* A/D may be as a/d or allow/deny - first char case insensitive
* Deny IP rules take precedence over allow rules.
*
*
* The Deny/Allow IP logic:
*
* - Default is to allow all. No addresses are denied unless
* denied with a D: rule.
* - Order of Deny/Allow rules is significant
* - Deny rules take precedence over allow rules.
* - If a deny all rule (D:*) is used it acts as a catch-all for unmatched
* addresses.
* - Specification of Allow all (A:*) is a no-op
*
* Example:
* 1. Allow only specified addresses
* A:172.20 # Allow any address that begins with 172.20.
* A:10.10. # Allow any address that begins with 10.10.
* A:127.0.0.1 # Allow local loopback connections
* D:* # Deny from other IP connections
*
* 2. Only deny specified addresses
* D:1.2.3. # deny from 1.2.3.0 - 1.2.3.255
* D:2.3.4. # deny from 2.3.4.0 - 2.3.4.255
* A:* # (optional line added for clarity)
*
* If a sub directory contains a config file it is parsed and merged with
* any existing settings as if it was appended to the original configuration.
*
* subdir paths are relative to the containing subdir and thus cannot
* affect the parent rules.
*
* Note that since the sub dir is parsed in the forked thread servicing the
* subdir http request, any merge is discarded when the process exits. As a
* result, the subdir settings only have a lifetime of a single request.
*
*
* If -c is not set, an attempt will be made to open the default
* root configuration file. If -c is set and the file is not found, the
* server exits with an error.
*

Updated to cr4.
From telnet entered the nvram set bootCmdS/N commands
including nvram commit and reboot.
Share didn't work, name was entered in LAN/IP settings.
can't connect to share by name or ip adres.

take instead of S / N a number instead
e.g. bootCmd0 and bootCmd1
or higher if you have set a bootCmd already

[ronin]

same here. added to bootCmds,commit, reboot. no share.

Thanks OLEG, just uploaded the firmware: my Philips toucam XS is now working and I'm happy with the Azores Islands timezone.
I think before the update I could't see network computer names (windows) between WLAN and LAN (not sure), and now I can, does it have something to do with the dnsmasq update or samba?

[Pirat]

I have same problem with samba. But just look http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=160
In /etc/hosts MUST be an entry "WL500g"

There is; xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx my.router my.WL500G Signed

I put in the nvram set bootCmd command right this time (thanks for the explanation)

Still no workgroup "workgroup" or share

There is no requirement for wl500g entry like this. The thing you're talking about heavily depends on the contents of smb.conf. So, please don't add anything to /etc/hosts unless you're absolutely sure this is needs to there.

nmbd and smbd are not running. check your bootCmds.
try lauching them manually

/usr/sbin/nmbd -D
/usr/sbin/smbd -D

Once you get them running try to access share \\signed\share
Also, you can check log files: /var/log/nmb and /var/log/smb

Hi Oleg,

I think my bootCmds should be oke, how can i check what it is starting?

When i check the log i get the following:

Oleg,

I got it working!!
I changed signed in wl500g. (Under LAN/IP settings)
BootCmd is working fine, the logfiles looked good this time, no errors.

Thanks for your help.

ps. I still want to know why smb is looking for the name wl500g
