Unfortunately no one can be told what fun_plug is - you have to see it for yourself.
You are not logged in.
I just got a DNS-323 and loaded the 1.06 firmware. Then copied the fun_plug script and tarball to Volume_1. Restarted the d-link but the tarball does not unpack. I have searched for info on what to do if you fail this early in the game but have not come up with any info.
Thoughts about what might be going wrong?
Thanks in advance.

How many drives do you have in the DNS-323 and how (what sequence) were they installed and formatted?
I believe the tarball has to be copied to the drive in the right bay - normally this is Volume_1, but I believe it is possible, under certain circumstances, to get it as Volume_2.
If you have two separate volumes and they were not installed at the same time, try copying the tarball to Volume_2 - or - swapping the drives from side to side.

There are two drives in the DNS-323 and they were installed and formatted at the same time as RAID 1 with the bulk of the space going to the RAID partition and a small (10GB) JBOD partition as Volume_2. I have tried moving the script and tarball to Volume_2 but no luck there either.
As I don't have any important data on the NAS yet I'll try reformatting the drives as separate and see how that goes.

Going to separate drive did not work either. Downloaded the shell script and tarball again and tried on both drives. No luck. Maybe I'll try moving back to firmware 1.05 and seeing if there is luck there.

Does the shell script have an extension (.sh) on it? If it does, you need to remove
the extension. Then copy the file "fun_plug" [no extension] to your hard drive, along
with the tar file "fun_plug.tgz" and reboot the DNS-323.
Some browsers (Opera is one, I think?) will add the (.sh) to the "fun_plug" shell
script when you download the file.

Ah! That did the trick. I should have caught that. Thanks for the tip.

I just installed the Fun_Plug tarball. Telnet is working fine, but I am having trouble setting the password for root and getting ssh to work.
I have followed the process as described in the wiki at http://dns323.kood.org/howto:ffp.
I get as far as completing these steps:
cd /ffp/start
sh sshd.sh start
Then when I attempt to login via ssh, the session appears to hang and eventually time out.
To complicate matters, I am not able to login via Telnet either - it asks for a login & passwd, but then appears to hang too.
I am a newbie - any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Fonz,
I've read thru the entire How To Guide. I am still unable to get SSH to work.
What am I missing in terms of the sequence?
Step 1: Set root password
pwconv
passwd
usermod -s /ffp/bin/sh root
Step 2: Store password
store-passwd.sh
Step 3: Enable login for Telnet
cd /ffp/start
sed -i '/flags/ s@^@#@' telnetd.sh
Step 4: Restart Telnet
cd /ffp/start
sed -i '/flags/ s@^@#@' telnetd.sh
<<Original Telnet session disconnected>>
Start new Telnet session
Step 5: Start ssh
cd /ffp/start
sh sshd.sh start
Step 6: Test SSH login
Terminal displays:
Connecting to Server-1:23 (press Esc to cancel)...
<system remains frozen at this stage>
At this stage I am not able to login to the DNS-323 via Telnet or SSH.
I am somewhat new to Linux and would appreciate any guidance you can provide.

Where did you find these instructions? The wiki clearly says: TEST YOUR CHANGES BEFORE TURNING OFF telnetd
Obviously, your ssh server doesn't work, but you disabled telnet without having tested ssh.
You can restore telnet (see root user section, "Reactivating telnet"), and then investigate the problem (e.g. start syslogd and read /var/log/messages).
