DSM-G600, DNS-3xx and NSA-220 Hack Forum

Thanks. I will try this tonight.
Can you tell me the path to find the startup script ? Is it fun_plug.init in /ffp/etc ? (because I don't find "run commands" block in this file ?

Sorry again for these noobs questions.

edit : ok I found it (in /ffp : fun_plug file)
I add the line but it does nont work :

**** fun_plug script for DNS-323 (2008-08-11 tp@fonz.de) ****

Permission denied ... ?

Edit 2 : OK it works. I edited your line like this :

#add the following line before the block that says "# run commands"
chmod -x /ffp/start/transmission.sh

SO I finally post my transmission.sh edition :

name="transmission-daemon"
command="/ffp/bin/transmission-daemon"
start_cmd="transmission_start"
stop_cmd="transmission_stop"
status_cmd="transmission_status"
user=nobody

transmission_start()
{

        if [ ! -d ${TRANSMISSION_HOME}-daemon ]; then
                su $user -c "mkdir ${TRANSMISSION_HOME}-daemon"
        fi
        echo "Starting transmission-daemon"
        su $user -c "$command -b -f
1>${TRANSMISSION_HOME}-daemon/$name.log 2>&1 &"
}

What's wrong ?

Does anyone know how to make transmission automatically remove torrents when they're finished downloading?

I did a little script that stops the torrent when it reaches a certain ratio (1.0 at the moment) after it is fully downloaded. You can modify this to remove it instead of stopping (try 'man transmission-remote'). It assumes that you didn't change the default port for the interface (9091).

#!/bin/sh
#checkratio.sh to check the readyness of transmission downloads

PATH=/ffp/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/ffp/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

#uncomment the next two lines if you want logs
#transmission-remote localhost:9091 -l >> /ffp/log/checkratio.log
#date >> /ffp/log/checkratio.log
for torrent in `transmission-remote localhost:9091 -l |awk '$7=="Seeding"&&$6>=1{print $1}'`
do
#the next line is also only for logging
#  echo $torrent >> /ffp/log/checkratio.log
  transmission-remote localhost:9091 -t$torrent -S
done

And here is the start script that will put this into crontab - it runs the previous script every hour at the 27th minute. Please be aware that this will also spinup you drive, where the checkratio.sh script is.

#!/ffp/bin/sh

# PROVIDES: checkratio
# BEFORE: LOGIN

. /ffp/etc/ffp.subr

name="checkratio"
start_cmd="checkratio_start"
status_cmd="checkratio_status"
stop_cmd="checkratio_stop"
required_files="/mnt/HD_a2/.transmission-daemon/checkratio.sh"

checkratio_start()
{
  CRONTXT=/ffp/tmp/crontab.txt

  # start with existing crontab
  /bin/crontab -l > $CRONTXT
  /bin/echo "27 * * * * /mnt/HD_a2/.transmission-daemon/checkratio.sh" >> $CRONTXT

  # install the new crontab
  /bin/crontab $CRONTXT

  # clean up
  /bin/rm $CRONTXT
  echo "$name started."
}

checkratio_stop()
{
  crontab -l |grep -v 'checkratio.sh' |crontab -
  echo "$name stopped."
}

checkratio_status()
{
  if [ `crontab -l |grep -c 'checkratio.sh'` -ge 1 ]; then
    echo "$name is running."
  else
    echo "$name is not running."
  fi
}

If you put this into the /ffp/start/ directory and make it executable it will start automatically when you boot your DNS. By the way, both of these are under ffp 0.5.

Hi, install all the required file to start up the transmission web.  The default location is download to: /
Where does the / refer to?  I got a permission denied after loading a torrents.  Help

Hello,

my transmission says that i'm uploading at 18Mb/s or even more (see attachment) but my upload is 512kb/sec and the torrent site says that I'm not seeding anything.
The only solutin that I have is to restart transmission and it starts seeding for 2/3 hours more, before starting with the same issue. If I restart the box it last maybe all night but then the same.

hardware: dns 323
software: transmission 1.33 or 1.34 (tried both already)

Can you please help me out? Can't seed more that some hours, after that I must reboot to start seeding again

After the file finished downloading, how to access it?  By the usual FTP method?
I had add "/mnt/HD_a2/Downloads/" at the preferences Download to:  On the next day (today), the settings revert back to /, the same goes for the upload/download rate.  Any idea why this happen?

If you start transmission using the included start/transmission.sh, then Transmission stores its settings (download folder, speed limits etc.) by default at /mnt/HD_a2/.transmission-daemon. If you want to use a different settings folder you have to edit that file.

If, however, you start Transmission directly (by typing 'transmission-daemon'), it will store its settings hat /home/root/.transmission-daemon, which sits on the flash and gets wiped every time you restart your NAS.
Therefore, I suggest you always use transmission.sh to start or stop Transmission, or at least use the -g switch when starting Transmission directly.

You may access downloaded data however you please. Most people access it via Samba/Windows File Sharing. FTP works too though.

how about trying to get help from the transmission team and not the one that have spend time on compiling the program to work on the nas.

Hi Kylek,

I hope you are able to help with the following question that I had posted earlier.

Many thanks.

Hi Kylek,

I would like to know if it is possible to have more than one user and password for the web login.  I've managed to follow your instruction

Code:

transmission-daemon -f -t -u myuser -v password -a +0.0.0.0/0

However, if I wish to have more than 1 username then how can I add in more user name and password?

Looking forward to your advice.

Thanks.

Now I cant even acces http://192.168.1.105:9091/transmission/web,  cant even use transmission.sh  start in telnet to start

Thanks for this nice client and all the good work, KyleK!

Transmission doesn't have any user rights management built-in. The option to use a login & password is only to block access for unwanted people (it's very simple HTTP authorization).
So even if you could specify multiple logins, they would all have the same rights in the web interface (add & delete torrents, pause them, change preferences etc.)

I highly doubt the devs will ever integrate something like user management, but you can always ask on their forums or create a ticket on their bug tracker. They're always open to ideas if you can provide code or a patch though.

If you're somewhat familiar with the Linux shell, you can try the following:
1. Connect to the NAS via telnet/ssh
2. set the environment variable TR_DEBUG to 2: export TR_DEBUG=2
3. Start Transmission manually and in the foreground:

transmission-daemon -g /mnt/HD_a2/.transmission-daemon -f

You have to create that directory first if it doesn't exist yet.


A bunch of debu messages should be seen on the screen. Try to see if something shows up that might cause the problem. You can also post the log information here (best in a attached text file) and I'll have a look.

1.4 is out anyone can compile it for the nas?

Patience, my young friend. I live in a different time zone than the devs :p
I'll probably do a compile tonight, if I have the time.
