General

Initial login: admin/password

If SSH activated, root has same pwd as admin.

Update FW

First created user start by default with UID=100.
To map to what was available on my other NAS I edited /etc/adduser.conf:

FIRST_UID=501

If user was already created, change its UID in /etc/passwd and /etc/passwd-, then e.g.

chown joe /home/joe

Debian

System is a Debian Wheezy

apt-get update
apt-get install dialog
apt-get dist-upgrade
apt-get install mc screen

mail

apt-get install exim4 bsd-mailx

Config: smarthost, no local email / yobi.be / visible domain name: yobi.be / smarthost: smtp.isp.xxx
Complete /etc/email-addresses

backuppc

apt-get install backuppc

Small issue because Apache is not running as the usual www-data but admin user:

chgrp admin /etc/backuppc/*
chgrp admin /usr/lib/backuppc/cgi-bin/index.cgi 
chmod u+s /usr/lib/backuppc/cgi-bin/index.cgi

Set backuppc password:

htpasswd /etc/backuppc/htpasswd backuppc

Move pool to the big partition, preserving hard links

/etc/init.d/backuppc stop
cp -a /var/lib/backuppc /home
rm -rf /var/lib/backuppc
ln -s /home/backuppc /var/lib/backuppc
/etc/init.d/backuppc start

Then visit https://readynas/backuppc
Default backup of localhost /etc will fail due to some read access issues, we can ignore them by tuning the corresponding TarClientCmd and appending to it:

--ignore-failed-read

Apps

Transmission

Default is admin/admin apparently
Edit /data/Transmission/config/settings.json
