Hi, Thanks, what does -l do? I wasn't able to find much info. What would be the best way to mount this pendrive with the the partitions mentioned for optware and a HDD for downloads? When I use automount, the /opt partitions are mounted, and the HDD is mounted as /tmp/C while the Data partitions of the pen drive is mounted as /tmp/mnt

The trick for functions in *nix os Is to google for man [function] http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?umount+8 If i recall correctly the way other partitions are mounted are stored in /opt/etc/automount Editing that file would make sure the partitions are mounted "your" way

Thanks! I just checked the auto mount script, the drives are mounted only twice, but somehow, they seem to be getting mounted twice. When i run mount from terminal, I get two entries for the /opt mount. This, however doens't seem to be affecting the functioning of the router in anyway. Unless, it can't effect the running of cron jobs could it? I seem to be unable to get cron jobs to work.

What are you trying to do with cron?
Cron works fine so its probably syntax

Hi,

I am trying to schedule flexget to run every hour.

Here is what I have added in the cron menu on the GUI.

Code:

*/45 * * * * root /opt/local/bin/flexget --cron

What would be the most simple way to check if cron is working? I tried entering a

Code:

*/5 * * * * root reboot

to check but couldn't get the router to reboot.

I then tried applying the fixes suggested herehttp://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=717952&highlight=#top but still no luck.

Am not familiar with flexget but.
When executed in command line with this syntax it does work?

Something else is cron enabled?

Always use full paths in cron.

Test if cron works with a command like this

Code:

*/2 * * * * root /bin/echo `date` >> /tmp/cron_test

First check in the /opt/etc/init.d directory for a file called: S95twonky

Then check in the /opt/local directory for a directory called twonkymedia.

If it is not there... then you need to re-install it. The best thing to do is to re run the prep_optware script.

If you find the program but the script is what you are missing, then do this....

Code:

wget -O /opt/etc/init.d/S95twonky http://wd.mirmana.com/S95twonky

I Have all of this, running on a netgear wndr3440, with DD-WRT v24-sp2 (12/08/11) big, the service twonky looks like in the place, but not really working.
When i try to start the service, the folowing error message shows:
Start service "twonky" (/opt/etc/init.d/S95twonky)
service: Start service: "twonky" (/opt/etc/init.d/S95twonky)
S95twonky: Starting twonky
Daemonizing...
/opt/local/twonkymedia/twonkymedia: can't resolve symbol 'atexit'

Any suggestions? Question

Sorry, have been traveling.

Cron is enabled, from the WebGui that is,

and, yes, the same command for flexget works well over telnet.

The above command should echo date in the syslog right?

that's at /opt/var/log/messages ? I don't seem to see any additional dates there.

Remove quotes on date and reboot.
If that doesn't work I'm clueless

Dear everyone,

I just successfully mounted my external usb hdd to my router (info included in bottom) using "Optware, The Right Way" ( http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Optware%2C_the_Right_Way ). I know optware comes with samba2. I am trying to detect my hdd through my Win7 OS but I'm not able to see it in my network (I have ext2/3 drivers for Win7 and I am able to see ext2/3 partitions when hdd is connected straight to my computer). I have only completed the above tutorial and it doesn't mention how to get your PC to detect the hdd or how to configure Samba2 to get your PC to detect your hdd. Any guidance of what I can do now would be amazing.

info:
Router: Netgear WNR3500v2/U/L
dd-wrt: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (08/12/10) mega - build 14929

after mounting and installing optware (I did NOT upgrade to Samba3.5):
root@tv-ap:~# blkid
/dev/sda1: LABEL="Optware" UUID="43760197-aa62-4f4e-ae2b-b5240f9aa1e0" TYPE="ext
/dev/sda2: UUID="021e4578-e111-4df1-bf0a-8deb1d14f993" TYPE="swap"
/dev/sda3: LABEL="Data" UUID="08e06cff-eacf-4081-a0ad-83a319af5170" TYPE="ext2"

Thank you in advance.

Use /bin/echo -e "`date`" in your cron line.
