Linux Network Storage , Need help detrming the distro
Hi , Ive just got a quad drive nas delivered today on the instalation cd i found two applications torrentflux and syabas . Im looking for a way to download a list of links from rapidshare i have a premium account so its effectivly a bog standerd http download which pc download managers have no problems with .
So id like to know if this is just a customised version of linux and if i can install a normal linux package on it . I dont have much to go on i spotted an apache2 folder in the system memory the torrent flux application was in the file torrentflux-1.11.bz2 - BZIP2 archive in the root of the archive the file packing_list Code:
[Package -- Version=1.0] Is this a normal linux server package ? and how difficult would it be to install a http downloader on the nas ? If it helps the package can be downloaded at wedamart[dot]co[dot]uk/torrentflux.aspx and ive uploaded a screen of the webgui at i34[dot]tinypic.com/wkl2lw.jpg Thanks |
Hi, Welcome to LQ.
One of these commands should reveal what type of linux you have... commands for knowing which linux is running Code:
lsb_release -a Regards Glenn |

Im wondering if this normal for a linux server / nas can i just install any apache or whatever software the same way |
So what did you get when you ran those commands as well as the following if it's not redhat?
Code:
cat /etc/*release* |
Well i cant run any commands because its configured through a webgui from the ftp structure id guess its a web application running ontop of the linux distro . Thats the only thing that i have access to but it runs php and mysql .
If i can figure out the package thats all it should need to run a http file downloader . Since its a webgui im assuming the instalation is preformed by uploading the package to the nas and then installing it normaly in the background . Is the archive i posted a normal linux package ? Its hard to know where to start without knowing the distro all i have acess to is the webgui and the complete (os folder included) filing system through ftp |
Code:
file:///etc/ |
