I had some trouble with the network speed of my NSLU2.
To copy files from a windows machine to the NSLU it only reaches
a throughput of 600kb/s.
I expected some problems with the network settings,with the duplex settings
in detail.
I had read something about mii support in the ixp4xx kernel module ,so I started
to compile the GPL tool mii-diag.
Download the NSLU Binary: mii-diag
With this tool , you are able to view and modify the duplex settings of the NSLU
network interface.
To view the settings use: mii-diag -ixp -p 1
PS: I does not solve my problem (because it was the MTU size of the windows machines)
Because the existing software for the Soniqcast Aireo is useless under Linux,
I had started to write my own tool.
It will be called Java Aireo SYnc (short JASY)
The actual version is 0.1a and in pre-alpha state.
Here are some screenshots:
Now I use the NSLU2 for:
-Samba Network Storage for my Windows PCs
-NFS Server for recording movies with the DBox
-NFS Server for playing movies , images and mp3 with the DBox
-CVS Server for my java development (e.g. Aireo sync tool)
-CUPS Server for printing
-Web Server for this blog
-SSH Server for remote access
-FTP Server for fast uploads from linux
-JVM for my own java applications
in future I plan to do:
-Connect my WebCam to my NSLU
-Display my pictures in a Web gallery
-Connect my Aireo to the NSLU (automated sync)
-Connect my palm to the NSLU
-Active the Power management of the hdd
-better integration with my dbox
Hi,
I have succesfully installed Nanoblogger on my NSLU and this
is my first blog.
