This is the config i am using with the built in samba.
But the config should nearly be the same with samba2.

First and foremost a thanks to oleg for the FW & wengi for the excellent tute.

I want to setup a wl520gu as a media file server & torrent box. I have followed wengi tute but find that inetd & samba just don't work. when I remove inetd & samba and just install samba, it works.

I get the same error message as claudiuid ie

\\Wl520gu\torrent is not accessible.You might not have permissionthis network resource.Contact the administrator of this server to find out if u have access permision.

This network name cannot be found.

(edited smb.conf entries, replace with another problem as described below 31/07/2009)

Also when not using inetd, devices attached to the WL520gu is able to see the samba share but PC connected to the AP or other wireless client is not able to see the samba share of the WL520GU.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hello guys,

I tried and tried and tried but to no avail...

I'd like to switch of the ipv6 functionality completely so my wl500g only uses ipv4 addresses but have not found a way to do this.

The reason I want to do this is because of Wondershaper. Basically I would like to limit my upload speed to the internet but NOT on my LAN obviously. My setup involves an ADSL modem in bridged mode (not possible to do any traffic control there) and a router (too old to support QoS) and my wl500g as access point. I need to do the traffic control on the Asus therefore but only to the outside. Wondershaper or 'tc' do not seem to support ipv6 though. I mean it does work but it is not possible to make the distinction between internal traffic and external traffic.
Using Wondershaper I set up a class for my internal range and a class for my 'external' range (effectively 0.0.0.0/0). Unfortunately I can only setup my internal range class using ipv4 addresses.
So if anyone knows how to configure Wondershaper to work with ipv6 then, yes please! If not then I would very much like to know how to disable ipv6 in my current firmware?

Thanks a lot in advance!

this is my laest PAIN in the ASS
I want to make ftp more secure, by using portforwarding.
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING --dport 10000 -j DNAT --to-destination 21
I know that, there's something missing
could someone Linux guru help me out?

[GS_IT]

I tryed this one
Still nothing

Next problemm
How to step 15
I did everything step-by-step , but asus says
Server refused our key

I found this, but I dont understand "simply use the dropbear part of the" <- is this the step 15?
The question is: how I can create automated login for ssh?

Thanks to HoGo and google I solved this problem.
Problem was in file/folder permission and wrong type of rsa key.
Problemm with iptables and sftp is still actual!

Hi,

i am not an iptables expert, but referencing this you could try

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 10000 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -p tcp --dport 10000 -j REDIRECT --to-port 21

The first one opens port 10000. The second redirects.

Did you install bash?
If so: remove it.
bash modifies your profile and this is the result.

You can reinstall bash later...

This helped. Now everything ( read as sftp ) is working great
