I checked the log files and I have the # issue in the log file.

When I run putty to login I get error: Connection refused.

I have added a rule in my firewall to allow the connection but still no joy.

Some help would be great.

Thanks

http://mybookworld.wikidot.com/forum/t-159738/release:multiple-downloads-at-once-using-built-in-downloader

I posted this on apple discussions , but not really resolved, any one else got this problem

I have two computers running 10.6.2, both backing up to a Western Digital World Book 1TB, running the latest firmware, using Time Machine.
This device supports Time Machine according to WD's web page.

One computer, within 24 hours of the initial backup, starts to backup large amounts of files, approx. 80Gb.
There is no way that I have made these amounts of changes, all prior backups are what I regard as typical
for the work I do, max 300Mb.

Excludes on this machine appear to be ignored.

The other computer backs up correctly.

Also, using an USB disk on the machine that makes big backups, the problem is not there, so its
one machine using the network drive, that has this problem.

Any thoughts?

the mionet problem is still there in 1.01.16.
also it tries to contact the following ip address 198.107.148.254. (as it did in the previous release)
no response from WDS re this

I wish WD would understand that some of us just want a NAS to back up files, and to be able to shut down all the other stuff.

Re stopping mionet, will try the permissions (its easier!!), can the same be done for wonkymedia server?

A few days ago I got my first World Edition with 1TB. I upgraded to the latest firmware - everythings´s fine. I am almost happy with it - I just would like to enter several URLs into the download manager at once. Let´s say I want to add 10 URLs from rapidshare which should download during the day. How I can I do this without change very much at the My Book? I found a hack here but it was for the Blue Rings version.

Thanks and regards…

I'm experiencing the same problem. Did you find any solution?

Good luck.

i do not use the Mionet. i mean the management menu /advanced/network/services/ then u can finde this FTP option.

i setup my router using a Portforwording Port21 to mbwe. then i can use this FTP everywhere using ftp:// domain i regestered

also nothing to do with the Mionet.

i think u are right about the upload speed.

thanks a lot for your help. and best wishes

1) This is possible right?
2) Do need all 4 partions to be created and restored on each drive?

I have been reading up on most subjects regarding Backup Image, Restore procedure and Install Clean HDD, but seem to be lost & confused most of the time. Seem that some have try this by mistake by procedure cut&paste below and exactly is what I want. This would work right?

Thank you for reading….

--- cut & paste ----—-
In order to be able to use my 2 disks, i modified my file /etc/fstab to mount the /dev/sdb4 in /shares/internal2 which i created especially for (and created a PUBLIC2 inside to reconize the shared disk easily).

and i modified the samba /var/oxsemi/shares.inc configuration file adding :

[PUBLIC]
path=/shares/internal/PUBLIC
force user=www-data
valid users=www-data ANGEL
write list=www-data ANGEL
guest ok=Yes
[PUBLIC2]
path=/shares/internal2/PUBLIC2
force user=www-data
valid users=www-data ANGEL
write list=www-data ANGEL
guest ok=Yes

----- end cust & paste ------—

And the SSH attacks, i solved by just turning it off, I turn it back on when ever i need it. But some people like to use the sftp, whereas i just use the ftp.

After working with the existing ones for smart_spindown and temperature monitor, I finally wrote my own one based on them. It is called smart_control, and it includes:
- spindown
- temperature/fan control
- change blue ring leds
- monitor RAID1 status

For using it, you need to mount the ramdisk in /mnt/ramdisk, as explained in other posts, and locate there all files which can wake up the disks from standby (logs, locks, …).

You need also to disable the wdc temperature and leds programs in /etc/init.d (I do it in the start script of my smart_control script, so wdc programs are run the first time to do some initialisation, and then I stop them and start mine automatically).

This version has not been tested much, and some temperature thresholds may not be correct (only tested with my Seagate disks and in winter). Therefore, I recommend to use this script only to people with solid knowledge of MyBook hacking, because it may still have some bug which could cause temperature problems, for example.

Maybe it is useful for some people not fully satisfied with the WD tools and the existing custom scripts. If anyone make fixes or improvements, it would be great to make them available for all…

Here is the main script /etc/init.d/smart_control.sh

The best reference I got is:
compile sound support
which also refers to:
guide installing debian

When following those posts, consider also these points:
- You can do it in anylinux modern version, regardless the gcc compiler inside. No need to change the linux distro compiler (e.g., I did it with Ubuntu 8.04, gcc-4.3). The reason is that the buildroot will compile the specific gcc version with cross-compilation support.
- When configuring buildroot, set always soft emulated FP processor. Configure not to include any application, so it takes less time. The interesting thing is to compile basic tools and the applicable gcc compiler for arm cross compilation.
- If you compile applications, the easiest is to use all which comes in the WD source package. Just put all the buildroot archives inside buildroot/dl directory (so there is no download), and configure buildroot as in the original system, e.g. with FW 1.0.18 with gcc-3, and kernel 2.6.17.14. Important point is not to get the latest uClibc snapshot, but the version a specified version (leave empty and it takes default one, already indl, I think). If setting all correct, it compiles ok, except last steps of building the root, which is not necessary.
- Once you have the compiler, you can try to compile applications from source code, using the buildroot generated copiler and libraries. I have not done it, but maybe you need to touch makefiles to use correct elements. You can see how buildroot compiles applications to do the same.
- If you want to compile a kernel module, it is a bit more difficult, because you need to use arm gcc-4.1 compiler generated by build root. The main problem is that buildroot and uClibc evolve, and they do not support anymore old compilers gcc-4.1 and kernel. The following worked for me:
- Download the latest buildroot package and extract it. Maybe in the future it does not work, so instead of latest, take from buildroot site the one available as latest around nov-2009, which I used. The same for uClibc
- In the configuration, it is the same as for applications, except that you have to enable obsolete packages, and then select the gcc-4.1 version (in my case it was gcc-4.1.2). Take the latest snapshot of uClibc. Use the latest In the kernel headers, specify manually the version 2.6.18.1 (because kernel 17 does not have headers install kernel, so buildroot fails. It seems that using this version is ok.
- When you make, it takes quite a long time, because it downloads some packages and compiles big thing like gmp (I do not know why). At the end, it should compile until the erroor when creating root image, and hopefully the gcc-4.1.2 should be available.
- You can then go to the vendor/kernel sources provided by WD, set the path to the generated gcc-4.1.2 compiler and try. I could obtain my module doing this.

I hopt that with the original instructions and these tips someone with good knowledge of linux and compilation can get things to work…

Is there a command for that ? check if it's sleeping or only looking the leds ?

A Tip, I saw people saying they are getting SSH attacks, I was too like everybody else, because they scan DNS sites for the port 22… so If you want to avoid getting those attacks just change your router port fowarding to something else from outside… like 2200 for example (that is not mine :D ) and I never got an attack again.

Cya.

And I did a lot of tweaking in my WD, I don't want to start all over again :(

Does the update delete everything ? Files ? or just a small amount of folders ? do we lose the /opt/ ?

Can anybody pack or send me the new twonky so I can install it myself ? maybe I can create a .deb for it.

Thanks

Dear Mr.
Thank you for contacting Western Digital Customer Service and Support. I'm sorry that you didn't get a reply to your previous emails.
This is because the system automatically sends an email with a link for customers to update the warranty themselves. If the customers don't reply to this email to say they can't use the link, then the case is automatically closed. Because you opened new cases instead of replying to the original case, the system closed them too.
Your warranty for the drive with SN WU2NCXXXXXXX is now up-to-date.

So make sure, you always update you query after you created it, because their system won't pass it.
That's stupid because I already bought new drive for my MBWE.
But I'll create new RMA for broken one disk, but i just wondering how long will take them to replace it.

i have 1.01.16 version and the system is loop and loop and loop… Now I can't access to twonky manager page ! I'm using Livebox 2 from orange…

Thanx

Wouldn't it be possible to use the update process to execute a shell script which fixes the missing files?
Has anybody found a tutorial to hack the update process on the whitelight to run a script as root?

Thanks

1) uninstall the Transmission Feature Pack by clicking the uninstall button

2) go to the system Configuration menu / FeaturePacks

then select manual install of feature pack,
copy paste the following url

http://highlevelbits.free.fr/download-MBWEW/TROLD61a/Transmission.tar
then click the GET button.

3) this should install the old transmission v1.61 + hotfixes which was known to be stable.

Regards,

Are you now on v1.01.16?? If so, is the unit going into sleep okay??

i mean the build-in function "FTP service" in the network-service Option.

thanks again.

thanx boondoklife, it was the solution. I've add this line in my fstab :

//ip_of_my_MBWE/usb1-1share1 /media/MyBookWorld/USB smbfs rw,user,auto 0 0

It's ok for me, even I start my MBWE after the linbox.

Thanx a lot

after the upgrade (i like progress bar when the system is starting) I tick my audio directory to be share.

And it's reading and reading and… And the number of other files (pix and videos) are at 0 ! And now, I can't acces twonky manager (port 9000), its' searching and searching and…

I think problems are growing after upgrades.

Thanx

Any feedback is very welcome

I was trying to get webdav working when I mistakenly tried to delete a file that was mis named I erease most of the files in the /usr/www/lib dir. If anyone has the same drive will you be able to copy those files for me and upload them. Or if anyone has an alternate route to resolving this problem. I am still able to run samba and ssh into the drive.

thank you.

I was absolutely amazed by the great hacks described on the wiki! Everything works really well on my My Book (blue rings). After setting up Optware I started using Samba from its repository and implemented all settings I also use on my Debian system. No pain, it all worked immediately!

Sadly however, sometimes Windows XP clients seem to 'forget' their login credentials of the mapped network drives during the day, causing much distress at my office! Using Windows GUI nor command line tool net use (with or without persistent) makes Windows behave correctly. All clients need to reconnect to their network drives to regain access to the Samba shares. But in time the connection fails again…

Do you have any suggestions that may help me?

Thank you in advance!

This process eventually timed out - at least, I can't access the interface, which was very, very slow to respond prior to this. I have tried resetting the device (per WD's Web site), but am still having issues accessing it.

The lights' flashing sequence is different from those noted on WD's Web site. I see the outer ring light go on and off, then it flashes an arc in each quarter of the ring, each flash being followed by the entire ring lighting again. The inner ring has a short arc lit around the 2 o'clock area. This doesn't change.

The other feature of this problem is that I can't power off from the front button - just by pulling the power cord.

If anyone can shed any light on this, I'd be most grateful.

Thanks,

Des

my MBWE is out of the box, vanilla flavor…

But I'm upgrading the firmware now, so I'll be back to say if it's ok.

Thanx guys

While sliding the pcb board to unconnect it from the serial ata hard disk i have accidentaly broken the soldering of one capacitor (this one is now missing, it is really tiny and it is somewhere on the floor), can anyone send me some pictures of the board to try to recover the value of the lost capacitor? Thank you in advance!

with a upnp browser i have two remote functions: GetLEDStatus and SetLEDStatus

What this??

yes it should work..
but i have never tested.
The only thing that is not compatible is the System Backup , from the MybookClone FeaturePack.

i'm using automounting with a fstab file.

I'haven't thought about this solution. It's ok when I type the smb adress. I'm trying to have for EACH startup.

Thanx a lot
