MyCloud Gen2 custom apps mini repository

Thanks @hashashin

Definitely yes, please make one when you have time. I’ll check @Fox_exe chroot method in the mean time, thanks for the hint :+1:

New app in the repo now WDMyCloud_UtilsUpdate, which contains some updates for existing programs and adds some I find useful for my day-to-day basis:
tcpdump, tload, top, vmstat, w, wget, ssh-keygen, ssh, ssh-add, sshd, openvpn, pgrep, ps, rsync, scp, sftp, sftp-server, slabtop, nmap, nping, ncat, ncdu, htop, nano, busybox (with extra applets) and ndiff.

All are at last version when possible and I have not touched the sources except for:

diff --git a/UtilsUpdate/files/ndiff b/UtilsUpdate/files/ndiff
index 4a39f32..657a855 100755
--- a/UtilsUpdate/files/ndiff
+++ b/UtilsUpdate/files/ndiff
@@ -1,4 +1,4 @@

 # Ndiff

Just to make it work, anyway if you don’t trust me: don’t install. :slight_smile:

This app comes as “it works for me®”, so as usual I do not assume any responsibility if something goes wrong. :mask:

Salud.

Another app in the repo: logmein hamachi 2.1.0.174. You need to configure it via command line:
hamachi attach “yourmail”
etc…
then it will save the config and you can control the start/stop of the daemon via the web ui.

Salud.

hi hashashin,

is there a describtion of what each of the apps is doing which is better/datailed than in the repo. Most of them dont tell me anything :neutral_face:
And how are this apps used to be use? Do I need to login the MyCloud and started them ? What is the advantage of that, and why not start them out of the MyCloud?
Thanks

Hi hashashin,

Firstly thanks for creating the UtilsUpdate

I installed it and seem to work however I currently have rsync/bittorrentsync 2.3.8 installed and wanted to update to the latest version 2.4.4

I thought the UtilsUPdate had rsync included, if not what is the best way to repackage it so I can install it

Thanks once again,
C

rsync it’s included, but rsync and bittorrentsync are different software. You can try to repack one of this packages: https://help.getsync.com/hc/en-us/articles/206664870

Hi hashashin,

Thanks for the link, a few hours later figured it out and tested it, all works

If anyone wants the latest ResilioSync 2.4.4 let me know

Cheers,
C

@carlitos_81 I would very much appreciate a copy of the ResilioSync app so I can test of my NAS. Is the latest version still 2.5? Thank you :slight_smile:

Hi Hashashin,

Wonder if you could help, I’m Struggling to install the WD Crack in Fox’s post. he also isn’t responding where does this file go while in SSH for this to happen?

I want to get ResilioSync 2.4.4

How to use Arcus?

seems hagging requesting for a license

Did you click on the ‘Learn more’ link in the first image?

A bit of googling soon reveals this page:

https://www.milestonesys.com/sv/solutions/platform/milestone-arcus/

where it says:

Right now and until June 30, 2017, WD offers free camera licenses to their customers.

So it looks like you have missed the free licence period.

It says the same on the WD page about Milestone Arcus:

https://www.wdc.com/solutions/ultimate-surveillance-storage-solutions.html

the issue is that actually i find no way to activate the app.
basically now we have the app but no way to get a license for this?!

How about installing a Git Server. Is that possible?

You already have the tools to do that: Git - Getting Git on a Server
git and ssh it’s all you need.

Salud.

As I understand you still need git on your server. I get the following error if I try to clone my repo from the server

sh: git-upload-pack: not found

I just looked at the git app and it’s includes that binary, you can confirm that with this command:
which git-upload-pack
then try this:

Salud.

But Git is not installed on my Cloud Mirror Gen 2, which is the whole problem ! There are no Git App on the server
