Tom, What are the chances of you including AFP support in the next kernel you release? Even if unraid doesn't have any official AFP support, that would let some of us install the AFP server and at least play with it ourselves. Thanks

I spoke a little too soon when I posted that ... turns out AFP is not compiled into the kernel, so the AFP package doesn't work.

Has anyone else taken a crack at implementing that structure (or has Lime-Tech)? Here is another update, this time using the directory structure from the Wiki. This code implements everything mentioned in the wiki page *except* the different runlevel support. Same instructions as before, but use the following directories: - The line in the go script should be: "/boot/custom/pkginst" - Packages should be placed in \\unraid\flash\custom\usr\share\packages - Config files should be places in \\unraid\flash\custom\etc\

Sorry, small fix to the scripts. Use this version instead.

Hey Everyone, So, here's the idea. Unraid isn't really bound by RAM or CPU. But, RAM and CPU are cheap ... I have a Core 2 Duo with 4 GB of RAM as my unraid server, and those components cost me under $300, including the everything but the case and drives. You can install quite a bit of software into the ram drive, without having to worry about using the disk. With 4 GB, you can easily install 1-2GB of software. Even a 512MB stick lets you keep a lot of compressed slackware packages So, here's something to make it very easy to install packages. I call it "Dirt Simple Packages" To Install: 1. unzip the attached zip file in the root of your unraid flash share. 2. add the following line to the end of your \\unraid\flash\config\go script: "/boot/customizations/pkginst" To add packages to unraid: 1. Go to http://packages.slackware.it/, 2. Search for the packages you want 3. Download them to \\unraid\flash\customizations\packages\ To customize the configuration files (optional, make sure you save text files as "unix" files, not "dos" files): 1. Simply create the new config files under \\unraid\flash\customizations\configs\ For example, you can create a resolv.conf in \\unraid\flash\customizations\configs\etc\resolv.conf That's it! If you choose any server packages, they will be started automatically. To apply the packages, either restart unraid, or else telnet in and run /boot/customizations/pkginst Feedback welcome! PS: Some packages I like, for example, are: - wget, for downloading from the command line: http://packages.slackware.it/search.php?v=current&t=1&q=wget - ssh, to replace telnet: http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?q=current/openssh-5.0p1-i486-1 - AppleTalk file sharing: http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?q=current/netatalk-2.0.3-i486-1 - file, for identifying files: http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?å=current/file-4.21-i486-1 - snmp, for network monitoring: http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?q=current/net-snmp-5.4-i486-6 - subversion, source control for hosting repositories natively; http://packages.slackware.it/package.php?q=current/subversion-1.4.6-i486-1
