DNS323 Installation

Hardware

HW: 2 x Samsung 501LJ (500GB)

Preparation

  • hook up LAN cable to FRITZbox and power DNS323
  • open firefox and connect to FRITZbox (in my case via http://192.168.178.1/ or http://fritz.box and password)
  • if you don't see the web UI you may have the wrong address. If this has been assigned by a router attached to you LAN the easiest way to find this is using the windows only D-Link set-up utility.

in System-Netwerkgeraete I see:

dlink-A80930 192.168.178.26 00:1C:F0:A8:09:30

so DNS is accessible from the network

enter @ login screen:

  User Name: 'admin'
  Password: (blank)
  
  Configuration - Raid 1 (Mirroring) - 498 GB

formats disks

  • after restart login ('admin') shows the setup wizard

mount DNS323 from LINUX machine called VENUS

  jens@VENUS:~$ ls -latr /mnt
  insgesamt 8
  drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 2006-05-22 16:00 .
  drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 2008-04-17 13:02 ..
  jens@VENUS:~$ sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.178.26/Volume_1 /mnt -o username=admin
  Password:
  jens@VENUS:~$ ls -latr /mnt
  insgesamt 2052
  drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 2008-04-17 13:02 ..
  drwxrwxrwx  1 root root    0 2008-04-25 18:51 .lpd
  drwxrwxrwx  4 root root    0 2008-04-25 18:51 .
  jens@VENUS:~$

You can see above /mnt was empty before mounting and shows now the .lpd directory now. So - it works!

install fun_plug 0.4 and addons

  jens@VENUS:/mnt$ ls -latr
  insgesamt 2052
  drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 2008-04-17 13:02 ..
  drwxrwxrwx  1 root root    0 2008-04-25 18:51 .lpd
  drwxrwxrwx  4 root root    0 2008-04-25 23:53 .
  jens@VENUS:/mnt$ sudo cp -r /home/jens/Download/DNS323NAS_FunPlug_0_4/* /mnt
  jens@VENUS:/mnt$ ls
  addon  fun_plug  fun_plug.d  README.txt
  jens@VENUS:/mnt$             
  
   login as admin
   Configuration - Tools - System - Restart - Wait ~60s
  • use telnet to see if fun_plug install was successful
  jens@VENUS:~$ telnet 192.168.178.26

  jens@VENUS:~$  

OK!
