Dec 09 13:31:25 <Nimmit> anyone want to help me get SWAT working with samba
Dec 09 13:57:34 <caplink811_log> what have you done, what have you tried, and what have you read before, and what is your problem?
Dec 09 14:06:32 <Nimmit> when I try to start it
Dec 09 14:06:42 <Nimmit> like the help says the ssh client likes freezes there
Dec 09 14:06:47 <Nimmit> it shows a blank line and just stops
Dec 09 14:07:24 <Nimmit> SWAT is probably my only hope of configuring samba
Dec 09 14:08:00 <caplink811_log> you know, that isn't the solution of your problem, have you read something about divertion scripts ?
Dec 09 14:08:28 <caplink811_log> as mwester mentinoned in the afternoon?
Dec 09 14:13:46 <Nimmit> I'll look that up
Dec 09 14:14:19 <Nimmit> okay
Dec 09 14:14:30 <Nimmit> nothing showed up from the search of "divertion scripts" on the website
Dec 09 14:17:41 <caplink811_log> k, the correct search word is diversion
Dec 09 14:21:16 <caplink811_log> k, the correct search word is diversion

Dec 09 14:30:19 <caplink811_log> Nimmit,  and you should have a look at http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Unslung/Samba
Dec 09 14:30:33 <Nimmit> ty
Dec 09 15:59:13 <Ranpha1> somebody here?
Dec 09 16:00:27 <caplink811_log> ~ask
Dec 09 16:00:29 <capbot> If you have a question, just ask, maybe someone have an answer... sometimes.
Dec 09 16:01:51 <Ranpha1> okay...i thinking of buying the NSLU2 but i heard about bad review...then came across your website...it looks and sounds great but here is my problem
Dec 09 16:02:38 <Ranpha1> I have6 big disk that i want to support (with one NSLU2 it isn't possible) and all disk have NTFS,,,,can this be support??? how and where can i fidn more info about this?
Dec 09 16:09:59 <caplink811_log> basically, no, unslung can handle 2 disc at a time, openslug and debonaras should hanlde more, unslung5.5 can't read/write on ntfs, unslung6.x should, openslug/debonaras (which depends on actual linux kernel versions) should read, but can badly write on ntfs
Dec 09 16:11:11 <Ranpha1> and what is baldy write???? slow or faulty???
Dec 09 16:11:30 <caplink811_log> imho, nrealy can't
Dec 09 16:11:34 <caplink811_log> nearly
Dec 09 16:12:26 <caplink811_log> on this topic you should have a look at www.kernel.org
Dec 09 16:13:02 <Ranpha1> and what other formats are there or me to format in???
Dec 09 16:13:12 <caplink811_log> ext3
Dec 09 16:13:28 <caplink811_log> standard linux filesystem
Dec 09 16:14:56 <Ranpha1> and this i can read form any windows computer from???(also when the NSLU2 dies???maybe with a software off course)
Dec 09 16:15:16 <caplink811_log> with a software, yes
Dec 09 16:15:36 <caplink811_log> normally, windows couldn't hanlde ext3
Dec 09 16:16:12 <caplink811_log> but, if you want use a nas, then the filesystem of that nas is uninteresting
Dec 09 16:16:22 <Ranpha1> which??? (so i can try out:-))  but with firmaware do you like the most? I have a big picture database 2 300 gig disk and 2 anime disk (containing rips)
Dec 09 16:18:10 <caplink811_log> google for ext2ifs
Dec 09 16:20:51 <Ranpha1> thanks but what firmware do you like unslung of openslug?
Dec 09 16:22:14 <caplink811_log> that depends on what you want to do with the nslu2. as an entry point, uNSLUng5.5, or if you have experience with linux, then debonaras would be a good choice
Dec 09 16:22:40 <caplink811_log> what means debian on openslug
Dec 09 16:23:44 <Ranpha1> well i'm a quick learner...but totaly know knowledge yet of linux. But i thinkg Openslug is better because it can suport more then two HDD's.....
Dec 09 16:24:37 <caplink811_log> then you should thinkig about debonaras, which offers you a choice of nearly 15k packages
Dec 09 16:26:17 <Ranpha1> okay thank you for the support. BTW for i forget how is the speed? I saw smething about 133 mhz and 266mhz? Can i read HD content from the disk?
Dec 09 16:28:14 <caplink811_log> linksys sells an underclocked slug with 133 mhz, the system runs normally at 266mhz, for that you should remove 1 resistor, network speed is around 3 - 4 Mbyte/s
Dec 09 16:29:25 <caplink811_log> you should have a look at www.nslu2-linux.org for some global informations
Dec 09 16:30:18 <Ranpha1>  remove 1 resistor <---- is this like removing a jumper...or can i find aguide for this on the website? And 3-4Mbyte ? so you can copy a 400MB ile in 100 seconds (theory offcourse)
Dec 09 16:32:00 <caplink811_log> in theory ;) depends on your network, on the side above there are some speed tests, and there is also a desription about deunderclock the slug
Dec 09 16:32:18 <caplink811_log> 1 resistor cut off/solder off
Dec 09 16:33:16 <Ranpha1> mmmmm do like the sounds of that...will check the site off course. ANd if i do somehing wrong with flashing         howeasy is it to try again?
Dec 09 16:34:20 <caplink811_log> if you don't damage the bootloader, then everything can be recover
Dec 09 16:35:08 <Ranpha1> okay thanks...i will look through the website..thank you
Dec 09 16:35:15 <caplink811_log> no problem
Dec 09 16:58:22 <Ranpha1> got a question. How easy is it to start and then shut down a disk will NSlu2 is running
Dec 09 19:21:19 <morfic> i
Dec 09 19:21:52 <morfic> i'm not sure on this, is the number of partitions/swap a hard requirement if i want to boot off of a memstick
Dec 09 19:23:10 <Nimmit> alright
Dec 09 19:23:32 <Nimmit> I can't get samba to allow people to access DISK 1 without a password
Dec 09 19:29:08 <Nimmit> nvm
Dec 09 19:29:15 * Nimmit actually figured something out on his own
Dec 09 21:10:10 <morfic> anyone here running just a kernel to boot of a disk, no rootfs in flash?
Dec 09 22:08:03 <blahhh> Ok I'm getting frustrated.. how do you get iPKG to work?
Dec 09 22:51:42 <morfic>  anyone here running just a kernel to boot of a disk, no rootfs in flash?
Dec 10 02:09:40 <Ranpha1> got a question. How easy is it to start and then shut down a disk will NSlu2 is running
