| - | You will need [[telnet]] access to run the following commands:\\ \\ | + | First you will need to enable telnet access to your DNS323:\\ |
| + | * Option 1 (preferred): [[http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/|Install fonz fun_plug 0.5]]. | ||
| + | * Option 2: Create your own minimal fun_plug script that enables [[telnet]] access. | ||
| + | * Option 3: Use any other fun_plug script that gives you command line access to the DNS323. | ||
| + | \\ \\ | ||
| + | **Note:** For the dns321 the firmware uses a different libc so the optware image for dns323 does not work. Success was had using the image cs05q3armel instead of dns323. So follow the instructions below changing dns323 to cs05q3armel for the wget command and the echo.\\ \\ | ||

| + | The drive mount will not survive a reboot and a symbolic link will not work correctly. Options to fix this are | ||
| + | * Option 1 (preferred for fonz fun_plug 0.4 users): See the [[http://dns323.kood.org/forum/t2170-funpkg-Optware-support-fonz-fun_plug.html|Optware startup script thread]]. | ||
| + | * Option 2 (always works): add these 2 lines to the end of the fun_plug executable script: | ||
| + | ''<nowiki>mkdir -p /opt</nowiki>\\ | ||
| + | <nowiki>mount --bind /mnt/HD_a2/ipkg/opt /opt</nowiki>''\\ \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | (Only for fonz fun_plug 0.5): To make the PATH variable permanent, edit the PATH in your /ffp/etc/profile script. | ||
| + | |||
| + | \\ \\ | ||
| + | **WARNING:** The new official firefly plugin (add-on) from Dlink for the DNS-323 which is available with firmware 1.08 also uses /opt as the shortcut folder from root directory. This causes a conflict as both have a /opt/lib and the firefly plugin will overwrite the optware lib files breaking optware on reboot. It seems dependencies are hardcoded in both of these (I was unable to use a different folder by just changing script files) so the solution if both of these are required is to use the fun_plug firefly install instead. | ||
