hacking Synology DS-101

Yesterday Synology released firmware for the DS-101g+ and the DS-101j that adds support for MySQL

Main Changes from Last Release

Modified items
1. The previous versions limited the USBCopy capacity to 2GB; in the new version, the limitation is removed.
2. Guest account can not log in via FTP service.
3. Empty password account can not login via FTP service.
4. In the new release only user accounts, groups and share settings will be backuped/restored.
5. USB Backup is renamed to Local Backup.
6. Default Mac browser is changed to Safari for MAC OS 10.3 and after.
7. The new release supports 500GB external disk for both USB and SATA.

New Features
1. Anonymous FTP is supported now.
2. The new version supports PHP/MySQL. PHP is enabled by default, and MySQL needs user enabling. There are some limitations of PHP:
• The functions are not supported: mail(), system(), exec().
• The real path of the shared folder “web” is “/volume1/web”. Some applications require user to set the path in the configuration file.
• The configuration option “register_globals” of PHP is turned off.
3. Network Backup is supported in the new version, which allows Administrator to backup data from one Disk Station to another. This function requires both the
source Disk Station and the target Disk Station have the Network Backup service enabled.
4. The internal disk can be exported as a read-only USB share when it connects to a newly installed Disk Station using an IDE2USB kit.

Enhanced items
1. The email notifications require Administrator to enter an SMTP server; however, some SMTP servers need authentication to relay the notifications. In the new version, Administrator can enter the authentication data for the SMTP server.
2. Backup scheduler is enhanced in the new version.
3. In the new version Administrator has greater flexibility to control visitor’s access to Photo Station.

Guys,

when you are about to upgrade de DS,
remove first your file from the DS.

The is a bug in de DS. After de upgrade the is no possible way to copy from / to de DS.

Synology is aware of this problem.

The even put a line at the "download" page.

Regards,

a serios DS user.

Well I've just upgraded to the (new) new version on my 101j. The extra features are very nice. mySQL works very well, quite a surprise considering the available memory. And the photo album is now much better, allowing for private folders.

The problem I have is all my extra packages have gone missing and I am no longer able to install ipkg. I get the error:

Code:

Instaling OpenSSL.. /opt/bin/ipkg: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: version `GLIBC_2.1.1' not found (required by /opt/lib/libc.so.6) /opt/bin/ipkg: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: version `GLIBC_2.2.3' not found (required by /opt/lib/libc.so.6) /opt/bin/ipkg: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: version `GLIBC_2.2' not found (required by /opt/lib/libc.so.6)

Any ideas?

Just updated my DS-101g+ to 2.0.1-3.0284 firmware. I've tried to enable telnet, but the scripts does not seem to do anything anymore (telnet doesn't respond - doesn't get enabled). Scripts worked fine in my older FW. Anyone having this same problem?

Hai Jebukka,

I have the same problems,

The have changed the rights on the files.

only root has "write" permissions.

The user "Admin" has only read on the most files.

Apache is running as "Admin", so jou can't change any of the files.

Telnet to DS101g+ with new Firmware 284:

Hi _SMaSHeR_!

so it is confirmed, that with FW 284 there is no "enable Telnet" possible?

THAT is a bad message ... i will stick to FW 253 if no solution is found.
(or is there a way to directly enable it - mayby with mounting HDD with linux pc?)

any news would be appreciated

greetings CJD

I have also updated to the new firmware on my DS-101g+ I don't want telnet I only wanted telnet so i could install the bootstrap and get SSH running.

So i did these simpe three steps and it worked.

1. create a file called unlock.php any name will work.
put these lines in the file
<?php
exec("sh /volume1/public/ds101-bootstrap_0.1-8_powerpc.xsh");
?>
Save it and put it in the /web folder on your Diskstation.

2. If not already enabled, enable ftp and upload the bootstrap file to the public directory.

3. Run in your browser http://your-diskstation-ipaddress/unlock.php
you should get a clear page. Now use putty to SSH to your Diskstation and thats it. God luck

PS: you could check this page for enabling telnet if still wanted but it didn't work for me http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/DS101/EnableTelnet
