This document briefly describes how to install NFS on your buffalo device,along with how to get remote root access, via SSH.

There are two systems involved here:

  • My desktop system - which will mount the exports.
    • 10.0.0.10
  • The NAS device itself.
    • 10.0.0.108

To get root on the device you can use the bundled acp_commander.jar command - of course you'll need a Java installation to do that.

Using acp_commander.jar you can execute arbitrary commands on the NAS, as root, you just need to know the IP address of your NAS and the password for the admin user.

Add your details to the nas script, then execute it like so:

Assuming this works for you then you can now examine the get-root script which will run a couple of commands:

  • root.sh
    • Change the root password to ssh.pass.
      • NOTE: This is the password you'll use for SSH, the admin webui login will remain unchanged.
    • Enable SFTP/SSH support.
    • Stop & start the sshd server
Corporation

Once you have root you can login to your NAS via SSH and run commandsinteractively, as you'd expect:

REMEMBER: The root.sh script will have set the ssh-password to be ssh.pass.

Install ipkg

Install ipkg like so:

NOTE: If this site disappears you can look at the archive/ directory in this repository.

The .xsh script will boosttrap the system, by unpackaging a binary-archive embedded within itself, and then executing it.

To view the contents of the archive you can run this:

NOTE: Use . tar xf if you wish to unpack locally and read what will be executed.

Ultimately when ./bootstrap/bootstrap.sh is executed it will install the two bundled .ipkg files (giving ipkg itself, and wget which is used to download packages), and configure ipkg.

Install NFS

Once you have ipkg, the package-manager, installed you can install things via:

I am planning to put up a monitoring system using CitectSCADA software and the existing ION 7300 meters in our location.I know that I can connect the meters in daisy chain using RS485. The meters are configured to communicate using MODBUS RTU protocol.The computer to be installed with CitectSCADA is 1 km away from the meters and it can be connected to the meters using the local area network.What are the things do I need to make this setup work?Can I use a modbus gateway to convert MODBUS RTU to TCP?Do I need OPC to get the data correctly?Help please. Citect scada 6.10.

To get the (user-space) NFS-server you'll run:

Arcsoft totalmedia 3.5 license key. To configure your exports you need to edit the configuration file/opt/etc/exports. My example is this:

Once that file has been updated you'll need to restart NFS:

NOTE: We're explicitly installing the user-space NFS server here. My first attempt involved using the kernel-mode NFS server, via a third-party repository. This failed to boot, effectively bricking the device neatly. Recovering from that was a real pain, and something I have no wish to repeat! (You need a third-party kernel because the default kernel contains zero NFS-modules. Also doesn't contain a kernel .config file either.)

Testing NFS

From a local system in your LAN, with IP 10.0.0.10, you should nowbe able to list those exports:

Mounting NFS Shares

This is what I did to mount the shares on my desktop:

All done.
