Hi,
I have this problem under both ubuntu and fedora.
I can mount the dns 323 drives onto a mount point on the host computer and see all the directory and normally see the files as expected. If a directory contains more than about 128 files then the directory comes up as having no files.
Has anyone else seen this problem. and does anyone know if the problem is fixed in the latest firmware.
The odd thing is that if I brows via the network server I don't have the problem.
Does anyone else on here use linux as the host computer.
Cheers

I have now upgraded to version 1.03 of the firmware but still have had no luck.
Does anyone else round here use a linux host and do they have problems.
Thanks

Works fine here, via both smbfs and nfs. (Tested with a directory with more than 4500 files).

Hi Fonz,
Thanks for the reply. I have the problem on both fedora core 6 and ubuntu.
Could you let me know what your disto and distro version is?
Thanks

Hi Fonz,
Sorry for the late reply, been away.
I use the following line in the fstab file.
//192.168.1.2/HDD_1/home/ken /mnt/dns323/home/ken cifs user=ken,password=xxxxxx,uid=ken,gid=users

I tried but if I remember correctly there was a problem in Fedora.
Could you post what your fstab line is.
Thanks

//10.12.11.5/Volume_1 /home/tp/bob1 smbfs defaults,noauto,user,exec,rw 0 0 10.12.11.5:/mnt/HD_a2 /mnt/bob1 nfs defaults,noauto,user,exec,rw,rsize=16384,wsize=16384 0 0
Are you still using firmware 1.01? HDD_1 is the old name. It's called Volume_1 since firmware 1.02.

Hi,
Thanks for the code.
I have Version 1.03
I tried Volume_1 and it is still the same. Not sure why the old HDD_1 was working.
I also tried the nfs line but this threw out a connection error. Do you need to install nfs on the dns323 to make this work?
I also tried the smbfs line but Fedora does not recognize it.
I will try on my Ubuntu laptop later to see if it works on there.
Thanks for your help, if you can think of anything else, please let me now.
Is there anyone out there that has got this to work on Fedora or with cifs.
Thanks

Yes, you need to start the nfs server:
sh /mnt/HD_a2/fun_plug.d/start/unfsd.sh
It will create a default exports file for you that should work unless you have only a single volume. In that case you need to remove the last line (/mnt/HD_b2) from fun_plug.d/etc/exports and restart the nfs server:
cd /mnt/HD_a2/fun_plug.d/etc head -n2 exports >exports.new mv exports.new exports killall unfsd sh ../start/unfsd.sh

this line seems to work under Ubuntu
//192.168.1.2/pictures /mnt/dns323/pictures smbfs defaults,lfs,noauto,uid=ken,gid=users,credentials=/root/.smbcredentials
Not sure why it does not need the Volume_1, it is also the line that I have been using for a while now so I guess that the upgrade of firmware to 1.03 did the trick.
I will attempt to do some things with the funplug another day.
Its seems that there is a problem with the cifs so I guess I should post a bug to the chaps at Fedora.
Cheers
