Flexhub Beta 0.2 svn 1469 for Synology NAS released

[FlipFlop™]

Finally, here it is: FlexHub for Synology NAS systems.

This package is suitable for the following models (all containing an Intel x86 processor):
DS114+, DS214play, DS411+, DS411+ II, DS412+, DS710+, DS712+, DS713+, DS714, DS1010+, DS1511+, DS1512+, DS1513+, DS1812+, DS1813+, DS2411+, DS2413+, DS3611xs, DS3612xs, RS810+/RS810RP+, RS812+/RS812RP+, RS2211+/RS2211RP+, RS2212+/RS2212RP+, RS3411xs/RS3411RPxs, RS3412xs/RS3412RPxs.

We haven't been able to test them all ofcourse, so if you encounter any problems on any of the systems above, please let me know.

The package installation asks for a loginname and password, those will be set as hubowner account and with those details you can login using a DC client, ApexDC++ is recommended.

Installation will then ask to choose a port, choose a free port (for example 411) and make sure that port is properly forwarded to your NAS IP.

Thanks for the great work - so far it seems to run fine on DS412+

Now I just need to do some more configuration before letting users in on my hub

[Don_Zalmrol]

Thank you!!!

Also is there a client version available for on the NAS itself?
So we can use our NAS both as a hub and client?

[waterdog]

If you install IPKG on the Synology you can get a command-line client called "Microdc2" I use that client on my Synology and it works fine although it is a little difficult to use and setup...

You could also take a look at Yorhel's NCDC: http://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdc

[waterdog]

Thanks for the tip about NCDC - it works much better for me than microdc2

[Don_Zalmrol]

Thanks for the links
How can I install this on my NAS?

Is it done via the terminal?

[waterdog]

NCDC and Microdc2 only works from the terminal.

I guess the most simple solution is to first install "screen" through IPKG (if you haven't installed IPKG yet just google how to do that on synology) - that way you can keep NCDC running in the background on your synology if you close the terminal window. Once screen is installed just remember to type "screen" before starting NCDC - if you close the terminal window you can reopen the screen-session in another terminal window by typing "screen -r"

NCDC is easy to install, just go to http://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdc/install and download the "statically linked binary" that matches the processor type of your synology (I use 32-bit version). Once downloaded you just need to extract the file and then execute the "ncdc" file that is included in the tar.gz file... no compiling is needed

But you might appreciate taking a look at the manual for NCDC which is on that website - there are many shortcuts to remember & figure out...

Do you have a Synology NAS?

Here's a video of how the FlexHub package is installed on such a device: https://vimeo.com/69721971

So I have installed this and been very excited to use this for ages, my one question is, how do I set up the server? So it knows what to share and what not to share?

[LadyStardust]

You have to be more specific about your question. It is a client that is used for sharing.
