**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Feb 25 10:59:57 2006 Feb 25 19:32:04 evening all... Feb 25 21:27:53 Hello. Am I missing something or is it not possible to upload files to the harddisks over the (default) web interface. I haven't yet upgraded. Feb 25 21:36:42 http is per default not an upload protocol Feb 25 22:09:49 Hi Feb 26 08:41:54 hello! Feb 26 08:42:27 i have what i hope to be a very easy question, with unslung 5.5 is it possible for it to be configured to automount ntfs partitons? Feb 26 08:42:33 i can do it manually Feb 26 08:42:52 i just wish it to be the same as if i plugged in an ext3 drive Feb 26 08:46:19 just a general question, what sense would it make to use an ntfs disc on linux? Feb 26 08:52:24 i have external drives which i use at work, and hoped to be able to use them here as well Feb 26 08:52:54 as i mentioned, using the ufsd module, i can manually mount the disk Feb 26 08:54:12 i just need it for portability Feb 26 08:57:04 i think u need to edit the fstab Feb 26 08:57:21 but i am not sure if u can disconnect it while the slug is running then Feb 26 08:57:53 what i had hoped for is similar functionality to the linksys firmware Feb 26 08:58:12 i dont think it's a deal breaker though! :) Feb 26 08:59:11 hm sometime soon there will be a new version of unslung which is based on the new linksys firmware i guess than it will work Feb 26 08:59:37 is that the 6.x beta i have seen references to? Feb 26 08:59:45 yes Feb 26 09:00:06 is that available anywhere yet? wouldnt mind having a look Feb 26 09:01:07 no the beta isnīt released yet Feb 26 09:01:18 itīs stil alpha Feb 26 09:01:27 ok, that probably explains why i couldnt find it Feb 26 09:01:28 :) Feb 26 09:01:36 but you could try building an image Feb 26 09:01:45 of the alpha Feb 26 09:01:56 is the sourcecode available?
