Since I'm not a professional I used Webmin's LVM module to create a volume group, add md3 to the group, and then create logical volume lv0 and mount it. I heartily recommend Webmin for non-professionals. I don't remember any issues with rebooting or halting when creating the RAID5 device or the logical volume. By defailt, md3 is an ext3 filesystem, not a logical volume, so when you use lvchange without first invoking lvcreate you might be assigning a logical volume that isn't properly set up.

Isaac_X:

I think that's exactly what was happening.  Since there was nothing on the drives this time, I just formatted md3 with xfs (I prefer xfs over ext3 for data volumes) and mounted it directly, rather than screw around with LVM.  Everything works fine now.

Has anyone got transmission-daemon working with a watched directory? The config file is correct but nothing is being picked up. Nothing appears in any logs so far as I can tell and I've checked permissions, though I have noticed that transmission-daemon keeps adding backslashes to any paths in the config file, for instance:

"/home/torrents"

becomes

"\/home\/torrents"

I know this isn't much to go on, but I'm not lost as to where to look for any further information about what transmission-daemon is actually doing and I've not turned up anything useful with Google either.

Hi

Last week i did the firmware update, everything run ok... after update i did a series of tests (webmin, updates, ...) and today i wiped the partitions to make a clean and permanent installation.

I followed the same steps that i used in the first time.

Applying the SP42 to enable SSH i can connect to console and change password ...

But after apply de firmware update SP99, now when i try to connect to console i get the message "Access denied".

I´m tried with root/atsahs, admin/admin and root/my_new_password...

Where is the problem , where i´m making mistakes?

thank you

The root password is set to root, it's in the instructions

Man

I tried by hours and I was so sure that I did not pay attention to this detail.
An error as trivial! 

Thank you so much!

You have successfully installing and running the transmission?

I even can start the transmission-daemon, but can not connect to web GUI!

I Just checked de config file but i not found anything wrong...

Thanks

Stop transmission-daemon:

/etc/init.d/transmission-daemon stop

In the settings.Jain, find "rpc-whitelist-enabled" and set to false.

Default username and password are both set to transmission.

[Apostasy]

Sorry, settings.json, last post was from my phone which appears to have autocorrected the filename for me.

If you want to change the password, edit the "rpc-password" field while transmission-daemon is stopped, when you next launch the daemon it will encrypt the password you can no longer retrieve it from the settings file.

Dear Hajo, really thanks for your work! 

Need to ask yuor kindly help to add an interensting feature to the nas: USB audio output.

Putting the device in I can find it in dmesg, already tried with other version of debian and it work correctly.

I've tried to install alsa but it seems to be needed the kernel source to compile this module, where can I found it the linux-headers-2.6.22.18?

I've followed these step:

apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils alsa-source >>>ok

aplay -l >>aplay: device_list:207: no soundcards found...

dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source

apt-get install module-assistant

module-assistant a-i alsa-source>>>
