I wrote a simple cgi-bin program that displays a bunch of settings on your Plug just by opening up a page in your browser.
The c source code as well as a compile exe are in the file at : http://www.scale18.com/temp/test.tar.gz
I would not use this if your plug was directly connected to the net as it does expose a whole bunch of stuff (or just use it temporarily and then delete it).
Just copy the 'test' executible to your cgi-bin folder (you need to have apache running) and then view your browser page at the /cgi-bin/test url for your plug.

As well as displaying the system info, it allows you to click around the various folders to view the directories contents.

Here is the output it generates for my plug:

Thanks!!

Seems inetd is not installed so I just added the svnserve init code to /etc/rc.local instead. But, at first it still didn't work as the default /etc/rc.local is messed up so I had to fix it by following the instructions here: http://computingplugs.com/index.php/Fixing_apt-get

I'm a total newbie with regard to Linux and I had this same problem. My USB HD was brand new (empty) so the easiest fix for me was to reformat it using ext2 instead of the fat32 that it came with. Then all I had to do was chmod 777 to the drive and that worked for me.

I got my plug last week. I have a 16gb sd card and a 500gb USB drive attached.

So far I have subversion and a samba share working on it.

I can start svnserve manually by typing svnserve -d -r /mnt/sd/svnrepos
and that works fine.

But I want it to work automatically when re-booting so I added

svn stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/svnserve svnserve -i -r /mnt/sd/svnrepos

to my /etc/inetd.conf file and when I reboot it doesn't run automatically when trying to connect.

Is my line in the inetd.conf file correct?
Help!
Thanks
Kevin
