    Dual instances of Minidlna possible?

    Hi, you cannot load minidlna multiple times; that was the issue I had. I also had the problem of playing FLAC files from my Asus RT-AC87U, so that my Roberts Radio would work with any audio format: I needed to transcode the files. I therefore had to compile from source ReadyMedia (an offshoot...

    vsftpd uses 32-bit capabilities

    Hi, this warning relates to the capabilities of the Linux kernel that Asus uses for their devices. The vsftpd-2.0.4 source hasn't been patched correctly. The fix is to add the line: #undef VSF_SYSDEP_HAVE_CAPABILITIES #define VSF_SYSDEP_HAVE_LINUX_SENDFILE #define VSF_SYSDEP_HAVE_LIBCAP to the...

    AC68 ftp servers configuration

    Hi, it should be noted that the vsftpd supplied by ASUS is version 2.0.4, which was released in 2010. The latest version of vsftpd is 3.0.2, which is still 2 years old and hasn't been updated since! I've only updated to v3.0.2 myself because of problems with the old v2.0.4 code, however, the...

    Remote backup with Rsync fails

    Placing the following 'make code' into the Makefile for the router type you are building is all that you need to do: rsync-3.1.1/stamp-h1: @test -d rsync-3.1.1 || wget -O - http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync-3.1.1.tar.gz|gzip -d|tar xvf - cd rsync-3.1.1 && \...

    Remote backup with Rsync fails

    Hi, I had a similar problem copying data from a Linux ext4 file system (on my RT-AC68U) to NTFS disk, using rsync 3.0.9-1 (ipkg) and the following rsync command: rsync -rltDvu --modify-window=10 --progress --delete-after --exclude=Incomplete /mnt/SAMSUNG/Transmission /mnt/MYCLONE/TRANSMISSION...

    Setting up Rsync with OpenVPN for remote backup

    Rsync version 3.1.1 protocol version 31 I had problems using rsync from Optware, so I compiled rsync version v3.1.1 into Merlin's code. It fixed my problems. I can't recall what version Optware was at the time. It would be nice if the latest version was in Merlin's firmware :o rsync version...

    Looking for feedback: Samba upgrade

    >>>While I tested with and without TCP_NODELAY, I left it disabled for ARM. Asus disables it for ARM, and the comment in the source code state that they did so due to compatibility issues with the switch (they probably mean the Broadcom internal switch used in the router). I would be grateful...

    Looking for feedback: Samba upgrade

    I've been using the following optimizations for compiling C code on the RT-AC68U and the RT-AC87U: _CFLAGS := -O3 -fPIC -falign-functions -fdata-sections -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -fomit-frame-pointer -fsigned-char -fsingle-precision-constant -fprefetch-loop-arrays -funroll-loops...

    Looking for feedback: Samba upgrade

    I also got Samba 3.6.24 to work under Asuswrt-Merlin back in July 2014. The main performance changes seem to be whether you use libtalloc/libtevent (and maybe libtdb). I didn't use the OpenWRT devs, so I'm not sure if these libraries were compiled into your code. Libtalloc, for example, is...

    how come my transmission upload is limited to 40kb/s?

    Optware's Transmission v2.82 It must be Optware's Transmission v2.82 that's the problem. I had the same issue with that software and got fed up with it! I compiled Transmissions v2.84 into Merlin's source code (RT-AC87U and RT-AC68U models only), and now I get download speeds of 5Mb/s and up...
