    How to update to the latest version of Merlin?

    No obvious note in recent changelog saying "full reset required". So, I literally just download the latest firmware and use the "manual firmware update: upload" button? – it almost seems too simple! I don't see the point of backing up my settings first, given that all advice says "don't try...

    How to update to the latest version of Merlin?

    For the life of me I can't find a simple explanation of the upgrade process from one version of Asuswrt-Merlin to the next. I just don't want to mess it up. Can someone let me know the steps?

    Bug: Samba/FTP users disappear when I change password

    I'm being paranoid of course, but cryptographically speaking, I'd be enormously reducing the search space for someone who wanted to crack my password.

    How do you upgrade Merlin?

    It's such a simple question yet I've never been able to find the "for Dummies" answer – I guess it must be so easy that no one thought it was worth saying explicitly. Can someone please tell me how I'm meant to keep my router up to date with the latest firmware once I've installed Merlin? Thanks

    Bug: Samba/FTP users disappear when I change password

    Thanks @RMerlin. I have managed to get it working consistently after: 1. Testing which special character combinations seem to cause issues and which don't. 2. Factory reset. 3. Create the users again from the start using passwords that were previously tested as not causing this issue. For my...

    Bug: Samba/FTP users disappear when I change password

    I'm experiencing a strange bug in Asuswrt-Merlin 384.17. I am able to add users to the list of Samba/FTP users, each with their own passwords and access rights. However, when I change a user's password, if that password has more than a few special characters in it, for some reason, all of the...

    ftp logging

    Hi @ColinTaylor. It's now half-working! I can see a "failed access" log entry if I attempt to log in to FTP with wrong password. However there is no entry for actual logins or activity. Here is the whole of vsftpd.conf: anonymous_enable=NO nopriv_user=root write_enable=YES local_enable=YES...

    ftp logging

    I further updated the postconf file, and have confirmed that it successfully adds, these lines: xferlog_enable=YES syslog_enable=YES log_ftp_protocol=YES xferlog_file=/mnt/............/vsftpd.log However I don't see any logs related to FTP access in either System Log or at the path "....."...

    ftp logging

    Thanks. I had put the file in /config by accident not /scripts. Having fixed this, I can see in /etc/ that the file has been correctly updated. (And just to be clear, the lines previously were exactly the same but "=NO"). However, again, after connecting and disconnecting to my FTP, I do not...

    ftp logging

    I created the `vsftpd.postconf` file as you suggested @ColinTaylor However, after reboot and connecting to FTP, I don't see anything in the system log. Am I looking in the right place? How could I set it to log FTP access somewhere else? Thanks

    Log of FTP access?

    Hi, I am using an Asus AX-RT56U with Merlin. Do you know if it keeps a log of FTP access? If so, where can I see a log of access? If not, is there something I can configure/install to make it log this? Thanks
