[zoon01]

The nas4free team is pleased to announce the release of 10.2.0.2.1868

README & CHANGELOG

NAS4Free Upgrade from below 9.3.0.2.1310 is NOT possible!!!
=====================================================
Upgrading NAS4Free "Embedded" or "Full" from any version below 9.3.0.2.1310 by webgui or from
LiveCD/USB is problematic, due a new size of boot partition & partition layout.
Please download and save your NAS4Free config to a safe place and backup all files from second
partition if you use boot disk as data disk.
INSTALL FROM SCRATCH IS THE ONLY WAY!
After installation you can restore your config.
Sorry for inconvenience.
** ! Tools to write extracted embedded file are not supported ! **
You must use the liveusb/CD for it's first installation!!!.

Install from scratch notes
======================
** Embedded.img.xz is only for upgrades by WEBGUI, do not extract and write to any media! **

Download NAS4Free livecd or liveusb and boot from it.
The compressed LiveUSB.img.gz needs to be extracted before you can write it to usb media,
you can use it with Win32DiskImager or any other tool.
Press 9 for the install menu and perform an embedded installation.

Upgrade note:
============
You must associate CARP with physical interface explicitly after upgrading to 10.X.
You may need modifying your NFS and AFP share setting.
You may need modifying your ftp setting, no longer SSL is supported (only TLS).
Send Buffer Size/Receive Buffer Size in CIFS/SMB is changed to 128480 since 9.3.0.2.1375.
/var and /var/tmp size has changed.
After the upgrade please do make a new backup of your config System|Backup/Restore.

ZFS User note!
After upgrading, you must re-sync ZFS configuration from Disks|ZFS|Configuration|Synchronize.

Hi!

Great release, thank you!
It seems the bug regarding my hardware configuration has finally gone in p5.
Reboot is as quickly as it should be, even with Intel server board.

No other worries at the moment, keep up the great work!

[T1g3rs65]

i see minidlna was added for command line would liked to be linked to more information on that if possible

[zoon01]

i see minidlna was added for command line would liked to be linked to more information on that if possible

The sample configuration is installed as minidlna.conf.sample.
Please create config, symlink to it and edit for your needs.
At lease, you need to edit "media_dir=" line for your files.

This is an example if HDD is mounted on /mnt/data:

# cp /usr/local/etc/minidlna.conf.sample /mnt/data/minidlna.conf
# ln -s /mnt/data/minidlna.conf /usr/local/etc
# nano /mnt/data/minidlna.conf
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/minidlna onestart

Note: You can edit the config from Advanced|File Editor

First post should be edited - current version of extendedGUI works on 10.2.0.2

[Parkcomm]

- AFP shares with TimeMachine support are limited to max. 4 shares.

This restriction seems odd to me - what its the course (just out of interest, I'm only running time machine on four macs at the moment)

[Parkcomm]

Just upgraded over openVPN - went smooth as a whistle (apart from a brief struggle with "Failed to create in-memory file system." Subject of another post.

Everything seems to be working so far. Thanks team.

i just got 2 new hard drives and made a zfs virtual device but when i go into tools to do vdev add the device does not show up to be added to the pool. i was not sure if i should post it here since im using this version.

I got an "permission denied"-error when using MiniDLNA in the 1868-Build

I'm using root, holger and dlna as "user" in the minidlna.conf-File ... but the result is always the same. All folders have 777 permissions.

Any hint??!!

[HoPla-HL]

I'm an idiot

Checking my ZFS-permissions solved the problem

For reboot MiniDLNA:

Here is my solution to start MiniDLNA after reboot ... i'm creating a batch called "start_minidlna.sh" (in my case in /mnt/zfs/scripts)

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
ln -s /mnt/zfs/scripts/minidlna.conf /usr/local/etc 
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/minidlna onestart

then create a Post-Init-Command in System/Advanced

Code: Select all

/mnt/zfs/scripts/start_minidlna.sh

Don't forget to add rc.conf

Code: Select all

minidlna_enable="YES"

After reboot .. check the processes ... et voila MiniDLNA is starting!! Perhaps not the best way, but it works

One thing I've noticed with this release is that the cpu load graph under status system doesn't seem to be able to display accurately. I've had 0% load consistently since this update. The server is under load, and I don't think my cpu is all that awesome. Maybe it's a freebsd bug. Here is what I have.

Perhaps this is moot in the next revision, but just to document what I'm seeing I'm posting here.
Also, when I go directly to the status page and cpu graph, it says the cpu graph cannot be displayed, then displays it with a null load.

Please update to latest 1906

Please check with /etc/inc/system.inc to 10x values.
It will show 0.5% instead of 0%.

OK, thanks guys.
