To copy a single file from Volume_ to USB
« on: January 11, 2015, 10:07:34 AM »
Hi everybody.
I am rosario from Italy.
I have a big problem. I just bought DNS-320 Rev. B, updated it with new firrmware and added Fun_plug... but i don't know how to copy and paste directly a file from Volume_1  to USB pen drive... i mean, the transfer rate with "drag & drop" from pc is so slow i caan't figure it's impossible to copy a single file within the NAS itself... i don't want to backup the entire volume (by the button on the front of the Sharecenter)...i want to copy a single file... How can i do that?
Hope my english not too bad...so i can explain my issue...
Thanks a lot, and CIAO!

Since you have Fun-Plug installed you need to find out what the USB stick appears as then it is a simple matter to use the command line via something like telnet to copy the file to the USB stick.  Drag and drop will always be a matter of copying via the computer.

I can't help with win 8, we don't use windows here except for win XP in a VM for test purposes.

Since you are restricted to SSH and I am not sure how full an implementation Fun_Plug uses.  You may be able to use  SCP http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-current/man1/scp.1?query=scp&sec=1 to do the transfer assuming that is available.

The other thing you could try, although it is not a direct copy in the NAS, is FTP.  SSH will allow you to setup an FTP server on the NAS and the you could use something like FileZilla on your computer to log and do a transfer to the USB stick plugged into your computer.  As I said it is not a drag and drop action but is usually much faster than using SAMBA - the protocol used for d&d.

If you reactivate telnet you could open a command shell and just use copy <fille> usba (assuming usba is the attached usb stick).  When the file is copied you would then exit the command shell and logoff telnet, which is what we do here when necessary.
