I am having a number of problems accessing LinkStations with Linux.
I have two linkstations (LS-CH1.0TL and LS-W2.0TGL), and I use Ubuntu (both 9 and 10) on my desktop.
Two issues, one small, one large:
small: I really (really) want the wake-up software to work with Linux. I can craft a work-around, but it would be VERY nice to have an applet that the inet deamon can call when a drive is mounted. I rarely have all the drives mounted, so turning them off is a "good thing".
large: There seems to be a bug in the samba protocol. The LinkStation will "forget" to announce its share points, and I have to disconnect and reconnect the drive (logically) to get them to re-appear. That is, I can see the drive, but samba reports "no shares". If I unmount an existing share, then they all show back up. Usually; sometimes it takes several tries to a known share to see the other shares.
Regards,
Gary.
