DNS-323 hacking: Adding Telnet support

I bought myself a DLINK DNS-323 (hardware revision B1) NAS unit. I fitted it with 2 Western Digital WD10EADS 1TB "Green Caviar" hard drives.

I was a bit disappointed that the "independant disk" operation couldn't be used so I had to revert to a RAID-1 configuration.
Upgrading the firmware to 1.06 was a breeze ( don't forget to unzip the distribution file before attempting the upgrade :-)

Telnet
Hacking the device for Telnet support was a bit more problematic: the good source of information I could find was here. The package release 0.5 works like a charm.

Details
  • DNS-323 HW rev B1
  • 2x WD10EADS hard-disks
  • Firmware rev 1.06
  • Fun_Plug release 0.5
