What's all the craze about NFS?  Can't you only use the standard file share like everyone else?  Works perfect for me...  I would vote to stop working on NFS if this can make the new firmware come out faster!

When you say "standard file share" I assume you are referring to SMB which is what microsoft uses. It works ok for machines running microsoft windows, but is, well, clumsy to say the least for people that use Linux. SMB does not suit my purposes, so I will not use it. Not a craze, just being practical.

We may be re-adding it. It is being looked into. It appears that we can stablize it...HOWEVER..theres a catch. If a user wants format their hard drives and they are running NFS, they will have to reboot the unit first. So far thats where its at and may be acceptable for a release. Will update you next week .

That sounds fine to me, it would only be a minor inconvenience, certainly not a show-stopper. I am certainly looking forward to the release. Thanks.

There are more changes in new firmware:

• HTTPS access:
  
• Slot info (Right / Left):

Can the updated add-ons only be used with 1.08 b5, or also with the first 1.08 beta?

[jeremy]

Well well, we are almost a month past the end of July, when 1.08 final was definitely going to be ready. Does anyone dare hazard an opinion as to when it may be released, with a working NFS plugin? Or should I just give up and go and buy (or build) a decent NAS instead?

So when on earth will the NEW firmware be released? It's taking way too long!

"Final" build arrived yesterday. Looking at a couple weeks of testing if no critical bugs are found. As to NFS, we have a new package that will release with the final code to support NFS.

You're a brave person to put another time line out there.

[D-Link Multimedia]

Well if I don't have faith where does that put our customers at =P. Besides theres a clause in there "if no critical bugs are found"!

[Piotr]

Any chances for S.M.A.R.T. support in the final firmware (like in DNS-321 and DNS-343) ?

My second question - what is the point of keeping built-in iTunes server (in the context of Firefly APKG package and limited flash space)?

That is great news indeed! :D:D

SMART Wouldn't fit in the 8mb flash so we couldn't fit it. Possibly an addon later but we tend to stay away from things that mess with HD's when running from the HD.

Good question on the iTunes, I had not actually realized that the original one was still there ><. Get back to you on that one.

[Piotr]

Maybe S.M.A.R.T. would fit in the 8mb flash if D-Link removes old iTunes server?

Hmm, so it's within this week i believe it will be out?
