I have enabled the telnet as per the instructions from lundman wiki, I was able to access telnet, but I haven't checked the USB slave function. After few days, when I tried to connect to my PC, nothing happened. I have connected to a TV, the hard disk can be still viewed. Any one of them having the same issue?.

PS: I have again formatted the hard disk and installed the applications, now I can able to access as USB slave. But still now I haven't installed the telnet. Can anyone please let me know whether I can enable telnet or not?.

I can not see any reason why telnet would bother USB slave, if you just run it from USB. Installing wont work since USB Slave is NTFS format ...

Having the same problem, after installing the telnet solution i can't connect to my internal harddrive (ext3 formatted).

Before i could see my drive in my diskmanager when connection to the usb slave, now with telnet installed it's gone in diskmanager.
Also Acronis did not see the drive anymore.

When connection, the screen displays that the internal drive will be disconnect then the laptop sees a connection on usb, but no drives.

Placing another internal drive and format it to ext3 without telnet, usb-slave is working.
Installing telnet, Slave is NOT working anymore.

So there must be something wrong in a service that telnet and usb-slave are using.

You can manually run 'usbslave' after telnet to PCH, then you can able to view the drives in computer, but the 3rd partition has not been recognized by the PC. strange.

I'm getting the same problem. Was beginning to think it was just me!!

Does the telnet program get installed to the hard drive? If so, that might be why the PCH can't unmount the drive to make it accessible via USB?

Telnet is using HD. telnetd is gettin started from start_app.sh in the
root of the HD.

Ah, it unmounts the HDD, yes, that wouldn't fly. We could make the start_apps be "proper" and follow ftpserver.sh "stop" command as well.

Hi all,
The problem has been solved. You need to edit the ftpserver.sh file and add line to kill telnet like same as start_app.sh. I have copied start_app.sh in /share directory to stop_app.sh and edited to kill telnet.

Now everyting works fine. The previous problem was, whenever you connect the internal hard drive as USB slave, PCH stop the services served from hard drive. Since telnet don't have any stop command in ftpserver.sh, the process was not closed, so can't view in PC.

lundman, please consider to add stop_app.sh in your .cgi script for llink & telnet.

Good news but how you restart telnet after ?

Dick · 12-05-2008, 08:33 PM

Telnet is started whenever ftp is started, since the call to start_app.sh is done inside the start() of ftpserver.sh

lundman · 12-06-2008, 03:40 AM

Yeah, that is better, that usb_client is such a poor way to do slave. I would have rather looked at a live emulator sort of thing, but I guess that is quite a large coding project.

Hi!

How does your stop_app.sh look like? I don't know the command to stop telnet.

Found it I think: "killall telnetd"?

telexxingou · 12-29-2008, 07:19 PM

i've edited my ftpserver.sh and add
/opt/sybhttpd/localhost.drives/HARD_DISK/stop_app.sh &
at the beginning of the stp function....

and created the stop_app.sh with inside killall telnetd

when i plug the usb cable on my laptop, telnet is down but windows does not detect the NMT hard disk..... Sad

what's wrong ???
can you publish yours files ? (ftpserver.sh and stop_app.sh )
thanks

It also works doing a soft reeboot, if you plug the usb cabel into your computer before you do the soft reeboot, this i think prevents the ftp service to start because the hdd is unmounted right away when you start.

Hi, i could still not solve my problem with the USB Slave connection. I didnt see the internal HDD, when i connect to the Slave Port. Only without installing telnet, its ok.

Can someone explain me the solution, which is discussed before? thx
