Quote from: ljones on August 21, 2009, 03:18:18 PM I'm wondering is there way to ftp or sftp into the sheeva? I found that sftp is installed on the sheeva, but I don't know the password to get into it (it's not nosoup4u) That is the password, but you have to tell it to be root if you aren't on the client system, so Quote sftp root@plug To ftp in you'd have to install an ftp server (run apt-cache search ftpd)

392	Linux Stuff / General Linux questions / Re: Problem with cronjob	on: August 20, 2009, 04:42:11 PM
Not a good idea to post username/pwd to a forum. If that's all of the script then how do you know it isn't working? It doesn't do anything apart from set some variables! If the posting was incomplete then the problem may be that you set a specific PATH in your interactive account, which won't be set for cron. Getting the script to write all of its output to a log when run non-interactively would help you: Code: [ -t 0 ] \|\| exec > /mnt/mybook/Torrent/cron.log 2>&1

FWIW: I get the same ifconfig message on my standard Intel desktop after "modprobe tun". But vpnc is happy to use it.

OK - you'll need the alpha6 install and the 2.6.30.5 kernel to get an rtl8187 driver. The alpha6 update is simple to do, provide you have a small USB stick and an Intel Linux PC handy. The Netgear should be OK. Certainly the WG111GE I have (my son has....) is an RTL8187, but I've just noticed that it says WG111v3 on the box. From a quick web search it seem v2 was Realtek too, though.

OK. I've just read what your actual problem is. You can't connect INTO the plug from an external address. I thought you couldn't connect out to an external address from the plug. So, a few questions: Have you ever connected in to any other home device? What is the "transmission web ui" you tried connecting to?

Total guess - with multiple devices added the device id of the USB drive is different to when it's on its own?

FWIW: My connector seemed to be slightly lose, so I just bit it (the mini-USB connector on the cable) to bend the top flange down slightly., It then fitted snugly and I've had no problems at all.

Quote ./runme.sh: 12: Syntax error: Bad fd number ./runme.sh: 13: Syntax error: Bad fd number Don't these error messages worry anyone? They come from the lines that are running fw_setenv. And the problem was a result of the environment vars not being set.,

Since I did this yesterday... 1. Get a USB Wifi dongle (something with a rtl8187 chipset would be good). 2. apt-get install wireless-tools 3. edit `/etc/network/interfaces` and add something like: `auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet static address 192.168.1.51 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 gateway 192.168.1.1 wireless-essid <your-network-SSID. wireless-key restricted 1 <your-WEP-key> wireless-defaultkey 1 # wireless-mode Managed wireless-channel auto` If you are using WPA rather than WEP you'll have to do something different - perhaps someone else has done that?

Quote from: ebp on August 18, 2009, 03:45:14 AM Does this mean that i should do nothing since my router used dhcp? If it isn't working you should do something. What does: `netstat -rn` show?

401	General Category / General Discussion / Re: Can't connect to sheevaplug from outside home network	on: August 17, 2009, 12:42:30 PM
You need to set up a default route. From the command line run: Quote route add default gw IP-addr-of-router and see whether that helps. I don't (yet) know how to get this done automatically at boot time with a hardwired IP address. Mind you - DHCP should set it...

Quote from: charlesW on August 17, 2009, 06:14:38 AM One favor from your guys with SheevaPlug, does ethtool work on SheevaPlug? Looks like it. This is with the alpha6 update wit the 2.6.30-rc6 kernel.

Quote from: Guai888 on August 16, 2009, 09:28:11 AM I can only get my transfer speed in Samba to 10Mb ( I have already set socket option = TCP_NODELAY). I wonder if anyone have been able to bring it up to 20 to 25Mb. 10MB/s (I presume) is what you will get through a 100Mb/s network link. The Plug has 1 Gb/s port, but what about the router you plug it into? If that (or the Windows client system) is only 100Mb/s then you can't expect, nor get, > 10MB/s via Samba.

To answer my own problem. I remembered I also had a spare 1GB microSD card and using that with an SD adaptor and an SD->USB adaptor seems to have done the trick. Not sure what the issue was with the other USB stick. It mounts OK now that the system is running. One problem I do have now is that eth0 only seems to want to run IPv6, which doesn't help me much with an IPv4 router. Is there a link somewhere to a useful "How to configure Ubuntu" page? And not "help.ubuntu.com", which seems to assume you are using a GUI - I need a description of which config files are where.

Quote from: mike on June 29, 2009, 08:47:32 AM Hi, I reloaded my alpha-6 installer on my Linux host. I'm using a 3rd USB stick. The plug does not seem to like it either. See: " Unable to use usb 0:1 for fatload " I have the same problem today. I've created a "FAT32" filesystem on the first (only) partition of a 4GB PNY USB memory stick. This shows up under lsusb as: Bus 001 Device 024: ID 090c:1000 Feiya Technology Corp. Flash Drive I've also tried a 512MB IBM microDrive through a powered hub. That produced slightly different output when scanning for storage devices: USB: scanning bus for devices... 3 USB Device(s) found scanning bus for storage devices... T T T T Device NOT ready Request Sense returned 00 00 00 1 Storage Device(s) found Device NOT ready Request Sense returned 00 00 00 Can't read from device 0 Unable to use usb 0:1 for fatload Device NOT ready Request Sense returned 00 00 00 Can't read from device 0 Unable to use usb 0:1 for fatload Any further suggestions?
