Shared bt folder
« on: April 13, 2009, 06:20:35 PM »

I am using the dlink323 bitorrent function. It will automatically created the folder called bt in volumn_1 and share it to everyone on the network. No button is provided to remove the sharing from the list, no problem with volumn_1. Anything method to change it? Do I have to hack it with fun_plug and change the samba config file?

using funplug I can see the samba config file /etc/samba/smb.conf

BT has a config section as follows:
[ BT ]
comment =
path = /mnt/HD_a2/BT
valid users =
read only = no
guest ok = yes
oplocks = no
map archive = no

I'm guessing chnaging guest ok to no and specifying one of your users for the valid user should be what you want to do.
You'll also have to commit this to the firmware if you don't want to lose it next restart.
I'd consider the first time not doing it to test if it does what you want.

disclaimer: careful playing around with stuff like this as it can brick your unit.

Why are they sharing out at the first place, without password protected?

That is a mystery.  The folder is owned by root so there may be some more tweaks to security to get it working right.

The even bigger questions is why can only the unit admin submit the torrents for download?

If you do get this working I'd be interested in seeing what combination of changes worked for you.
