Hello,

I would like to make file server (NAS) with DSL. Does anybody know how to do it, or have done it ?

Thanks...

Sure.

First, do a frugal install. Or a standard HDD install. You can find instructions in the wiki.

Add the following lines to /opt/bootlocal.sh:
Code Sample
chpasswd dsl:dsl
/etc/init.d/ssh start
# mount hard drives here

Make sure /opt/bootlocal.sh will be backed up reboot. You can learn how to do that in the FAQs in the wiki.

At this point, you have a headless DSL machine that is accessible through ssh. You can use sshfs, from wherever you are accessing your NAS from, to mount these remote drives to your local machine. Here is a good, simple explanation on how to use sshfs:

Any more questions?
