**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Jan 12 02:59:57 2007 Jan 12 08:07:49 I have installed the proftpd on my slug. But I am not a experienced user so I encountered a problem. Jan 12 08:07:52 I can not edit the proftpd conf file due to access rights problem. This despite the fact I have logged on as admin. Jan 12 08:07:52 How can I fix this, is it configured via a telnet client or what? Jan 12 08:14:09 someone here Jan 12 08:27:42 yes wolff Jan 12 08:27:54 hi! Jan 12 08:29:44 talk to me Jan 12 08:29:48 same prob as yesterday! : How to restore a flash-backup made with documentation from CompletelyBackupTheNSLU2! Jan 12 08:30:05 oh, right Jan 12 08:30:27 and you didn;t like my script-retrace solution, right ;) Jan 12 08:31:50 basically, I'd assume that as soon as you unslung or openslugged into a harddrive, and you attach the harddrivo to another slug that was unslung the same way, it would be an exact copy. did you try that? Jan 12 08:32:04 Hmm, does not match my needs! I have a master-system and want to clone to 5 devices! Installing Etch from a scratch takes at least 3 hours, thats to long! Jan 12 08:32:51 then you can copy the disk to another disk, using ghost on a windows system or dd on a linux system, to clone the disk I'd say you're all set Jan 12 08:33:23 so the only steps to do on each slug would be installing the firmware and make it boot from disk. Jan 12 08:33:32 The Disk is not the problem! Jan 12 08:33:36 the other step is just cloning disks. Jan 12 08:34:01 what do you do on the slug that is not on the disk? Jan 12 08:35:08 Etch installs bootloader, kernel and initrd while installing. Thats what i need on the other devices! Jan 12 08:35:35 oh, I'm sorry, I dont know about etch. my bad Jan 12 08:36:32 but the CompletelyBackupTheNSLU2 howto seems to backup all, even the internal flash. I think that would be all there is to copy. did you try that? Jan 12 08:37:20 Does not matter! The thing is that i have 6 files from the Flash-Backup and dont know how to restore! Jan 12 08:38:03 ah so you backupped ok, but need to know how to restore,,,, Jan 12 08:38:15 yes! Jan 12 08:39:15 I see there is no info on that in the backuphowto... you are right Jan 12 08:39:49 i always rtfm before asking! Jan 12 08:40:56 yes, I just thought backing up was the problem. Jan 12 08:41:19 It looks like http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Profiles/EgorZindy has done similar things... Jan 12 08:41:49 sorry for my bad and unclear english! Jan 12 08:44:56 I'd mail him to see if he has some more links/tips/info (http://www.egorzindy.com/) Jan 12 08:45:27 and if you have it working, let us know by adding some lines in the wiki Jan 12 08:46:27 wiki-entry should be no problem, expect my broken english! Jan 12 08:46:58 we'll fix that if needed, you're doing ok Jan 12 09:24:40 Hello :) Jan 12 09:24:44 I have installed the proftpd on my slug. But I am not a experienced user so I encountered a problem. Jan 12 09:24:52 I can not edit the proftpd conf file due to access rights problem. This despite the fact I have logged on as admin. Jan 12 09:25:04 How can I fix this, is it configured via a telnet client or what? Jan 12 09:27:46 bad: you need to log in as root Jan 12 09:41:21 ok Jan 12 09:48:32 but the root user does not exists according to the unslung web gui Jan 12 09:48:40 only wokrs if u telnet Jan 12 09:48:52 should i create a root user? Jan 12 09:49:22 Tobbe, im somewhat in the blue here ;) Jan 12 09:49:40 if you are the only user, it could be admin or root Jan 12 09:49:49 do: cat /etc/passwd Jan 12 09:50:12 see if it is the 'only' user, in group root Jan 12 09:50:38 also check to see if the proftpd is not readonoy Jan 12 09:50:39 ok Jan 12 09:50:45 (readonly) Jan 12 09:50:56 is that .conf in /etc? Jan 12 09:51:07 do: ls -al /etc Jan 12 09:51:25 post your results in pastebin.com to show us Jan 12 09:51:53 # is -al /etc Jan 12 09:51:53 is: No such file or directory Jan 12 09:53:19 (ls with the L of list) Jan 12 09:55:57 dont get it Jan 12 09:56:27 but on the other hand, i dont even know how to brows the dir via telnet Jan 12 10:01:23 hm.... did you ever use 'vi'? Jan 12 10:01:44 vi? Jan 12 10:02:36 i refrace the question, is it possible to manage the security and acces of users and folder access via telnet Jan 12 10:02:40 ? Jan 12 10:03:02 (this question might show what a newbie I am) Jan 12 10:03:18 sounds like you have hardly any experience with linux unix, so that might give you some problems Jan 12 10:03:33 true Jan 12 10:03:46 I's say, stick to the webinterface. Jan 12 10:03:54 ok, i start with some sort of beginner guide Jan 12 10:04:00 ok Jan 12 10:04:17 all i want to do really is to edit the proftpd conf file Jan 12 10:04:26 yes, you might want to learn linux on a pc first, before trying to do these things Jan 12 10:04:30 but i can only view it Jan 12 10:04:44 lol Jan 12 10:04:46 with what program do you try to edit it? Jan 12 10:04:55 wordpad Jan 12 10:04:59 or notepad Jan 12 10:05:34 i must set the span of passive port to the ftp server to go through the NAT router Jan 12 10:05:36 I think that partition or share is readonly for you Jan 12 10:05:48 not share Jan 12 10:05:55 thatone i can edit Jan 12 10:06:01 *that one Jan 12 10:07:15 well, google for a little tutorial on "vi", telnet into the slug and do: vi /etc/proffpd.conf Jan 12 10:07:25 that means editing it on the slug itself Jan 12 10:07:35 ok Jan 12 10:07:35 ill do Jan 12 10:07:48 TNX :) Jan 12 10:07:59 you will stuble and fall a couple of times, but you will get there eventually Jan 12 10:08:05 good luck Jan 12 10:08:11 :) Jan 12 10:33:38 hello! when I listen to the network traffic using my nslu2 and tcpdump, the data seems totally corrupt. It seems to send raw Ethernet II frames with an unknown type in response, but it does in fact send real frames with properly embedded ip packets on the wire (?) it's almost as if tcpdump cannot see what the box is actually sending Jan 12 10:56:38 mika_ :) Jan 12 12:13:02 hello Jan 12 12:13:20 is the OpenSlug kernel compiled with the USB_BANDWIDTH option? Jan 12 12:15:26 how can I find out what options the kernel is compiled with? Jan 12 12:25:38 igge: yes? please state the reason for emergency? Jan 12 12:29:12 jelle: hello... Jan 12 12:30:04 well no emergency... sorry if I sounded a bit stressed.. Jan 12 12:30:28 just tell us what your question is... Jan 12 12:31:09 I want to know if the OpenSlu kernel is compiled with the USB_BANDWIDTH option turned on Jan 12 12:32:17 the background is that when I connect more USB devices (2 bluetooth dongles) it fails Jan 12 12:33:04 Good morning Jan 12 12:33:11 and dmesg says "hci1 intr rx submit failed urb c1459754 err -28" Jan 12 12:33:55 that -28 indicates after some googleing that the USB_BANDWITDH option is on... so I want to check if it is... Jan 12 12:34:11 jelle: what do you think? Jan 12 12:34:27 Quick question about upslug2 I grabbed the code from svn and when I run autoreconf -i I get the following error message configure.ac: 8: required file `./[config.h].in' not found Jan 12 12:35:11 igge: I don;t know, but hang around here and someone might answer it. or mail this question to the mailing list Jan 12 12:35:26 or check the mastermakefile, to see if the option is on or not Jan 12 12:36:37 jelle: ok will do that... thanks... Jan 12 12:37:05 jelle: I have the master makefile.. but don't think the options are in there? Jan 12 12:40:06 search all files in the build dir for the USB_BANDWITH statement, I'd assume it will pop up somewhere Jan 12 12:41:16 jelle: yep will do... as soon as I have the build dir... :) Jan 12 12:41:30 good luck Jan 12 12:41:36 I'm following http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Development/MasterMakefile Jan 12 12:42:24 but the monotone version I got hold of is not the same so I need to rebuild some database or whatever... it takes a looooong time... about half way now after 3 hours... Jan 12 12:44:33 jelle: cheers... dum de dum... nothing to do but wait... Jan 12 14:09:48 Anyone here? Jan 12 14:10:05 Has there been any development for the ds-106e? I have bought a longshine lcs-8311 and it's very simiular to the ds-106e Jan 12 18:43:41 .:20·11·34:. «l0c4lh0st» hi Jan 12 18:43:42 .:20·11·54:. «l0c4lh0st» I have a USB stick on disk 1 Jan 12 18:43:42 .:20·12·03:. «l0c4lh0st» which contains my rootfs (with Debian) Jan 12 18:43:42 .:20·12·14:. «l0c4lh0st» Can I safely plug in another USB stick in disk 2 Jan 12 18:43:42 .:20·12·20:. «l0c4lh0st» to use for data storage? Jan 12 18:43:47 This might be a better place to ask. Jan 12 20:59:03 l0c4lh0st: I thought you knew everything about the slug? Why not give it a try and see what happens. :p Jan 12 20:59:38 uh I don't know everything lol Jan 12 21:00:04 and yeah, I ordered it already assuming it does work Jan 12 21:00:08 so I'll find it out anyway :P Jan 12 22:17:19 I'm doing that and it works just fine. *#*#&#*#&*&#*#^H^H^H^HDISCONNECTED **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Jan 13 02:59:57 2007
