D-LINK DNS-320 Sharecenter D-LINK DNS-320 Sharecenter

Fun_plug is a collection of applications compiled and packaged by fonz. fun_plug is install on top of D-Link firmware. It is much more powerful than the D-Link original firmware. The following modules is install by default:

  • Lighttpd – a lightweight HTTP server for hosting web pages on the NAS
  • OpenSSH – Secure Shell (which you already used to login to the NAS)
  • Mediatomb – a UPnP media server (alternative to the one provided by Conceptronic)
  • NTP – Network Time Daemon (to synchronize the NAS’ clock with accurate time servers on the Internet)
  • UNFS3 – user-space NFS server (a file server protocol which is often used by computers running Linux)
  • NFS-Utils – NFS server (efficient file transfer and synchronization utility)

This guide is based on fun_plug 0.5 & D-Link DNS-320 ShareCenter and assumes an SATA hard disk is installing to the DNS-320 ShareCenter formatted as ext3.

 



INSTALLING FUN_PLUG:
fun_plug 0.5: http://www.divshare.com/download/18196850-7e3
Once you’ve downloaded the appropriate files for your device, open up the root folder and place fun_plug and fun_plug.tgz in the Volume_1 part of the drive using Windows Explorer (My Network Places). 

Files in the topmost directory of D-LINK DNS-320 ShareCenter

 

Reboot the  DNS-320 NAS. This causes the NAS to go and find the file fun_plug on Volume_1 and execute it. Fun_plug is successful install if you see this screen:

Changing Root Password

Telnet to DNS-320 ShareCenter and change password as below:

pwconv
passwd

 

usermod -s /ffp/bin/sh root
mkdir -p /ffp/home/root/
usermod -d /ffp/home/root/ root

 It should look like this:

/ # pwconv
/ # passwd
Changing password for root
Enter the new password (minimum of 5, maximum of 8 characters)
Please use a combination of upper and lower case letters and numbers.
New password:
Bad password: too simple.
Warning: weak password (enter it again to use it anyway).
New password:
Re-enter new password:
Password changed.
/ # usermod -s /ffp/bin/sh root
usermod: no changes
/ # mkdir -p /ffp/home/root/
/ # usermod -d /ffp/home/root/ root
usermod: no changes
/ #

You still can use a simple password even though it prompted for "Bad password". Just enter same password for 3 times, it should continue without error.

 

Testing login password

login

 It should look like this:

/ # login
nas login: root
Password:
No mail.
root@nas:/mnt/HD/HD_a2/ffp/home/root#

 

Store Password Permanently

This step is essential, otherwise your password will be cleared on the next reboot. Make sure the ShareCenter is connected to internet.

#!/ffp/bin/sh

echo "Saving Userdata to /usr/local/config/"
cp -f /etc/passwd /usr/local/config/
cp -f /etc/group /usr/local/config/
cp -f /etc/shadow /usr/local/config/
cp -f /etc/samba/smbpasswd /usr/local/config/
wget http://wolf-u.li/u/172/ -O /ffp/sbin/store-passwd.sh

 For DNS-324 ShareCenter, you should follow this link to store password permanently.

Now execute

store-passwd.sh

 

Activate SSH

SSH is a network protocol that provides file access, file transfer, and file management functionalities over any reliable data stream. You should use SSH to manage your ShareCenter for security reason. 

chmod a+x /ffp/start/sshd.sh
sh /ffp/start/sshd.sh start

 

Deactivate Telnet

Telnet is a network protocol used on the Internet or local area networks to provide a bidirectional interactive text-oriented communication facility using a virtual terminal connection. But it is not secure.

For security purpose, you should deactivate Telnet. Make sure you can SSH to DNS-320 ShareCenter before deactivate Telnet

chmod -x /ffp/start/telnetd.sh
