As title say, is there a way to install lftp on this nas based on v2.x firmware?

Any alternative? I need to sync files with a remote ftp server, based on scheduled activity (check every hour).

Or can i install a different firmware on it?

5 days of life and already hacked. well, bye warranty (?) :smiley:

anyway… if anyone else wants to achieve this pain in the *** that’s how i did it.

  1. download the chrooted debian app

  2. set the chroot environment. and here is a difference not well explained: on the mirror gen2 the path is /mnt/HD/HD_a2/Nas_Prog/Debian/chroot

  3. lftp depends on some packages that are not available in the repository. i have grabbed them from these repository and installed manually using dpkg http://mwn-cdc.arsip.or.id/debian-security/pool/updates/main/b/bind9/

  • libdns-export100_9.9.5.dfsg-9+deb8u6_armhf
  • libirs-export91_9.9.5.dfsg-9+deb8u6_armhf
  • libisc-export95_9.9.5.dfsg-9+deb8u6_armhf
  • libisccfg-export90_9.9.5.dfsg-9+deb8u6_armhf
  1. you can (finally!) install lftp via apt-get install

i have adjusted my personal mirror script (different shell) but i have achieved my purpose.

Well WD, overall it’s not a bad product but you need to improve it (is it really necessary busybox?)

Well, it has been a long time since my first post.

Today i want to share with you my personal lftp script.
Feel free to test, redistribute or modify it to suit your needs.
You don’t need brackets.

Some explanations first:

  • as stated, this is based on mirror gen2
  • don’t forget to chmod + x the .sh script file!
  • search in the forum how to create a cron job. on my nas the script is launched every hour
  • the script is launched only if you have at least 30gb of free space available
  • synctorrent.lock is a simple file used to check wether there is already a download activity
  • the script check the files/folders present in a remote ftp over ssl folder (last 7 days)
  • segmented download, no parallel file download (i have encountered issues using it)
  • notify.sh was a script related to an android app (push notification)
