I can't find the package logrotate for the DNS-323/CH3SNAS.

Is it out there somewhere or is there anybody willing to compile it for the NAS?

It would be highly appreciated

logrotate is in optware/dns323 ipkg feed
http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optwa … /unstable/

see http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/dns323 on how to setup.

Thanks, got it working!

It's a bit more complicated then a FFP packages, but it works anyway

The ipkg setup is more complicated because it's not automated, on other optware platforms, it usually involves executing one single script.
But once you have optware ipkg installed, a BIG advantage is that it manages dependency.

What's not more automated that a FFP package?

First I installed optware:

Code:

wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/dns323/cross/unstable/ipkg-opt_0.99.163-10_arm.ipk
tar -xzf ipkg-opt_0.99.163-10_arm.ipk
tar -xzf data.tar.gz
mkdir -p /opt
mount --bind /mnt/HD_a2/ipkg/opt /opt
export PATH=/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:$PATH

Then some ipkg configuration. Detailed information at http://dns323.kood.org/howto:optware

And then installed logrotate:

Code:

ipkg install logrotate

Now what is that different then when it were a FFP package?

Code:

funpkg -i logrotate

As an example,

When you "ipkg install logrotate" it will automatically install popt.
When you use funpkg, you'll need to remember to install popt.

When you "ipkg remove popt", by default it will prevent you from doing that, since this would break logrotate.
With FFP, you're on your own.

Ah, I see. Thanks for the explanation
