Can we PLEASE for the love of GOD get a firmware for this NAS which has "FTP LOGGING"? How hard is it really to code that in to dump a text file out to a remote location?

Also, NAT support would be nice (so I can run an FTP server on ANY port from a NAT without problems) and when I change the FTP Server Port in the 323 it *SHOULD NOT* ask me to configure a user when I ONLY WANT TO CHANGE THE FTP SERVER PORT!!!! Grrrrrrrrr...

You do realise that this forum is neither owned nor operated by D-Link and you post may or may not be seen by them - perhaps you should email them directly.

the firmware has number of small improvements (like different print queue)

I've been complaining to DLink about international characters bug.

this firmware has makes an improvement in that area (-:
- that is: it no longer just randomly garbles international file names
.... no, now it consistently replaces regional chars with "_" underline character
- well at least you can now read back the file after guessing its name ...

the firmware seems to be stable enough (well it did not crash on me, nor made me lose any files) but it is BETA so the usual warnings apply (-;

here is the rapid share link to the firmware
http://rapidshare.com/files/63143089/NA … 00217_.zip

Thank you very much for posting the firmware!

I too have been struggling with the poor International character (no UTF-8) support with the current 1.03 firmware which runs samba 2.x.  I'm looking forward to samba 3.x with the new firmware which *should* support UTF-8.

I know that International character support with samba 3.x is just fine on CentOS3 (RHEL3) or Ubuntu.   

Let's hope that D-link will finally release 1.04 soon -- it's been a very very very long time since their last update.

Hi again,

Just wanted to say that the firmware seems pretty stable.

When I first installed the firmware, I also  initially had problems with consistently replaces regional chars with "_" underline character in the filename.  However, the international characters within the content of the file remained intact and displayed properly.

Then, on a whim, I decided to reformat the filesystem.   Happy news:  now everything works just fine!
(I was lucky that re-formatting was not a big deal for me.)


So, I'm not sure if you want to give that a try too.  If it works for you, maybe you can report this feedback to Taiwan D-link.  Hopefully, they can tweak it some more and get this new firmware out the door!

Thanks again!

Formatting shouldn't change anything. It is a question of samba configuration probably.....
Maybe moving/renaming files should be enough ?

My 2 cents

fdisk is still broken in this beta release:
# fdisk /dev/sda

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 30515.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
Segmentation fault


And also after second restart:

umount /dev/md0
e2fsck /dev/md0
reboot
#everything is fine
reboot

it complains about errors on /dev/md0 (uncleanly dismounted)- although e2fsck did not find any errors.

Strangely you have to restart twice to get this warning.

Otherwise it behaves itself.

From my perspective I would think that the main point of 1.04 was to move to samba 3.x. International characters being fixed is the bonus .

If you have feedback opportinities it would be good to have the samba "net" application included. I know that samba has not been compiled with krb libraries, but as a simple legacy domain member it is better than not at all.

Great news! Follow up with my previous post, I just inserted my main 500 GB HDD without format and somehow the text issue has also been fixed! Now I can see inter chars on both HDD without formatting the 2nd drive! It seems you need to at least perform the format once on one of the HDD (maybe just any HDD? someone plz test, eg: format HDD A, then remove A, and insert HDD B and C in without format B & C)

BUT! the bad news is, the power up bug is still there!
After a full power cycle, (turn off and on) if you have 1 HDD inserted, it can not see it, the blue light keeps flashing, if you have two HDD inserted, only one of them is accessable, steady light, the other HDD keeps flashing and unable to access it. You must go to the the system page and touch some network access setting, eg: toggle network access from user to group then back to user again, then click the restart button on the system page, now you should be able to see both HDD or the HDD if only 1 is inserted.
