Disable Trashbox on ez linkstation ls-l320gl

[tropicalview]

   

Hi,

 

I Use the ls-l320gl for a authomated backup.

but i ran into problems that the deleted files are not deleted but placed in the trash box.

 

due to that the new backup will not take place, and i would like to disable this feature,

but it seems to be possible only by the web interface and this version doesn't have that.

 

is there a other way to disable this?

   There is no way to disable the trashbox on the LS-L320GL.  The ability to turn off this feature was not add till the LS-CL version of the LinkStation EZ.

It can be done - I've done it on mine - it's fiddly.  You have to use acp_commander to install telnet on the linkstation (http://wiki.fireflymediaserver.org/Linkstation_Live_Pro_Install">http://wiki.fireflymediaserver.org/Linkstation_Live_Pro_Install), then use telnet to get in, navigate to /etc/samba/ and edit the samba.conf file to remove the four lines at the bottom that refer to the trashbox (http://buffalo.nas-central.org/index.php/Category:LS-LGL">http://buffalo.nas-central.org/index.php/Category:LS-LGL). The only editing program that seems to be there is VI.

Thanks very much manglewurzle for your info, as at long last I was able to disable my trashbox, no thanks to Buffalo.

It was fiddly as you said and took a bit of trial and error, but well worth it in the end.

Thanks again.
