Unfortunately no one can be told what fun_plug is - you have to see it for yourself.

Bit of a newbie question I'm affraid.
I've got funplug (0.4) working and have followed the wiki to quieten down the fan in my DNS.
Question I have is that the instructions seem to indicate that a log is written to a RAM drive so as not to wake up the disk drives but how do I access the RAM drive? Do I just telenet to the device and then switch drives somehow?
TIA

Will really appreciate any help on this as well as I am unable to find the log file from the fan control script. How do we access the RAM Drive?

The script from the wiki ( http://dns323.kood.org/hardware:fan ):
LOGDIR=/log
FANLOGFILE=${LOGDIR}/fan_ctrl.logSo the log file will be /log/fan_ctrl.log
To read it, telnet your box and run 'less':
telnet bob less /log/fan_ctrl.log
Important keys to navigate in less are:
j - scroll down a line k - scroll up a line space - scroll down a page > - go to end of file < - go to start of file q - quit
PS: It doesn't matter if the file is on a ram-disk, a network drive, or on the hard disk. unix/linux has this VFS (virtual file system) thing that combines everything into a single directory hierarchy.
