I am using optware the right way, ddwrt v24-sp2 mega. I activated ProFTPD from the router's admin page, the server works fine - I can connect and transfer files, but the big problem is that it reports wrong filesizes for big files.
I have a usb hdd attached, properly formated, and for big files (mainly hd movied) i get filesized like 300mb, 400mb for files around 4GB.
Samba is working fine, files are not corrupted.
It's a limitation of DD-WRT's proftpd. It's compiled without LFS (Large File Support).
You need to create a ticket for it just like I have to.
If you use Optware's proftpd it will probably work fine. I have not (yet) created startup scripts for it.
Just install it and try to get it working. If you have issues, explain them and I will try to sort them out.
I did something with vsftpd, but it could be on another platform (Playon!HD). _________________ Asus RT16N + OTRW

What happens if to use optware and a big build? There are NTFS in both.
I have feedback that all things are working now (I don't use/need NTFS myself). I needed to do some special handling for it.
When DD-WRT natively supports ntfs-3g, automount will use the native ntfs-3g binary and load the native NTFS-module.
It will use the downloaded module (k26 from DD-WRT.com and K24 from wd.mirmana.com) in combination with optware's NTFS-3g otherwise.
BTW:
DD-WRT itself doesn't load the NTFS-module if it isn't mounted by DD-WRT. _________________ Asus RT16N + OTRW

Today I added a new tool in OTRW intended to be used later on in conjunction with Zabbix.
It's a DNSBL tool
Code:
http://www.dnsbl.info/
DNSBL sounds complicated, but it isn't really. You can do a DNS-request for that DNSBL combined with your IP and if you get a 127.0.0.0/8 address as an answer, it means you are listed.
Anti-spam software (like ASSP I'm using) can do a quick lookup on these servers and can decide if they want to pass you or not.
If you are sending mail directly to the recipient's mailservers (not using your ISP's SMTP-server) you don't want to be on such a list.
That's where this script comes in. It will enable you to query almost 50 servers to see if you are listed.
If used with Zabbix, you can do an automated check every hour and get informed when something's wrong.....
I will post some more info later about zabbix integration.
For this to work you need to turn on rebinding again in DNSMasq as it otherwise doesn't work with these blocklists. Not even for your local linux box.
So "No Rebind" should be set to "disable" (can't this be changed in the webif?)
The damage will be limited as the script uses 8.8.8.8 as the DNS-server to query. Some servers (at least spamhaus.org) has that blocked. _________________ Asus RT16N + OTRW

When updating DD-WRT, do I just run the optware install script again, or do I need to do something else? _________________ Netgear R7800, 46885 (05/06/2021)

I installed proftpd from optware, but it does not start - error is: Socket operation on non-socket
I'm too busy with other things at the moment. I can probably look at it in a few days. Try to solve it yourself for now. It will teach you a lot.... _________________ Asus RT16N + OTRW

For updating dd-wrt, just flash whatever build you are updating to, re-enable USB, and you should be good to go, just check 'service' from the shell to make sure everything re-initialized.
It would seem to me the 'vfat' module has not been "inserted" into the kernel. Without the appropriate file system module, the file system will not mount. _________________ E3000 22200M KongVPN K26

*PLEASE* upgrade PAST v24SP1 or no support.
On older versions DD-WRT loads all the modules you tell it to in the webif.
The newer versions only loads the FS-module of the partition it mounts. As it only mounts 1 partition, it will only load 1 FS-module.
As automount is able to mount more than 1 partition it bumps into this when loading a filesystem other than the first partition (which is ext if you properly set it up).
Because loading the NTFS-module has always been the task of automount, you will not have this problem. I did need to patch it, because it's better to load the native module instead of the downloaded one...
You can get it working for now by inserting the vfat module manually...
I tested it on 1 router which worked and the other router didn't. I have no time to sort this out further because I have to get into the snow and ride to work. _________________ Asus RT16N + OTRW

I've followed the Optware the right way process (very easy and elegant btw) but one question still persists and it appears there may be some confusion for others....with regards to turning on JFFS in the Admin Panel or not.
Can someone take a look at the issue I posted here and provide an answer?
