Hi guys,

Been playing around the NAS on User Access. It seems that there are some design flaw on the product if not my bad. Pls see scenario below:

1. created g_admin group and g_user group so that I can add my family login to the groups respectively.
2. assign g_admin group to have read/write on folder1. System created folder1 share
3. assign g_user group to have read only on folder1. System created folder1-1 share
4. tried assigning newly created user1 to both g_admin and g_user. could only assign to one group only

This scenario has 2 flaws. First folder1 share should have permission of both g_admin and g_user but instead it created 2 shares instead. Secondly, a user cannot be inside 2 different groups which will help with maintaining only 1 password for different shares with different permission

Anyone got any comments on this or any resolution that I can configure this manually via some telnet session to configure samba or something? Thanks a lot for the help

Pretty limited for users to edit samba settings via the web interface, DNS-323 is a simple machine after all...

If you want to try, read up on samba and edit the smb.conf file in /etc/samba folder. It's placed in the ramdisk which clears/resets after every reboot, so you need to save it in your harddrive , e.g /mnt/HD_a2/ and copy over. You can edit the fun_plug script to move file back and restart samba services or manually do it every time you reboot the NAS.

E.g (smb.conf refers to the one you manually edit and saved elsewhere as backup)

cp smb.conf /etc/samba/
smb stop
smbd -D
nmbd -D

or

cp smb.conf /etc/samba/
smb restart

* or smb stop and then smb start.... but processes will show the full path to smbd , /usr/blahblah/smbd -D

Type ps in console, it should have 2 smbd and 1 nmbd processes, every user connecting to the samba shares will generate another smbd process.

Thanks rogue, just read thru the telnet function from fun plug and configure smb.conf based on my requirements. Thanks for the help. I would if dlink will change their interface to suit this eventually... hmm

anw good to see that there are a lot more modules like better_samba for AD auth and etc. Can finally do configuration w/o purchasing other exp NAS to do this

 

[duffy]

oo... so i must straight away get 2x 500gb right?

hmmm then if next time wanna upgrade capacity,

raid 1 can be done?

hi anyone noe this?

 

[n0d3]

[duffy]

maybe i downgrade back to it orginal version

if u previously store files in 1.03, u need to reformat after upgrade to 1.04 to change your hdd to utf8

it's i8in the dlink faq website

Will the harddisk in DNS-323 spin off when they are not in used?

Not in used as in when i did not touch anything of it but the rj45 remains plug in into router and booted on? my DNS-323 seems to spin forever even when i am not accessing the data in it.

in your dlink webpage go to tools/power management. You can set your hdd spin down in xx mins.

for those who are configuring samba on this nas with read list / write list parameters, I realised that default security is via Share. Thus you may not be able to use read list / write list parameters by default. What I did is that I have a smb.conf I've modified from original, place them in /mnt/HD_a2 and created a samba.sh to copy this back to /etc/samba/ and add this to fun_plug. Do note that smbpasswd file do get reverted to previous state when you created the share depending on situation. So do backup your smbpasswd also. if not you can always do a smbpasswd -a <user> again

Hi guys,

Has anybody successfully used the inbuilt DDNS in v1.04 firmware together with the singnet 2wire router?

Can you share what needs to be done? I can access the NAS via the ip address, but not getting the domain name to work.

regards.

Hi,

Anybody on singnet broadband using the 2wire modem, manage to enable the dyn dns feature in firmware v1.04 of DNS-323?

I tried putting my DNS-323 in the dmz, still can't work....

I'm able to use the WAN ip address to access the DNS-323 directly, it seems the dyndns is not working.... any other software i can install in DNS-323 for dyn dns? I have fun_plug installed already...

regards
