As mentioned earlier, my trusty old server has finally decided to give up on me after abusing it since year 2001. Had managed to shift most of the hosted services to other devices on the network. Shifted print server to a wireless G print server (DPR-1260), and the rest of the functions onto the DNS-323.
So what is the DNS-323 doing now? The list of stuff my DNS-323 is doing:
- Downloading and seeding files
- Tunneled connection for my Internet needs at public hot spots
- Automated backup using rsync for some network clients
- Web server for some project work
To minimize the harddisk reads and writes, most of the services are running off a flash drive. Lesser disk spins = power savings!

A patched version of MLDonkey has been compiled. Check out MLDonkey 2.9.6 (max_bt_uploaders patched).
MLDonkey releases will now be packaged for fonz’s fun_plug (0.5) to ease the installation process. 3 variants of the compilation would be made available:

Do away with the grueling task of setting up a cross compile environment just to compile that small application to run on the DNS-343/DNS-323/DNS-313. Or waiting anxiously for somebody to compile that particular software you have been eyeing sooooOOooo long? Native compiling is rather simple if you are using fonz’s fun_plug 0.5.

My workplace needed a simple forum to test out some stuffs and so happened hangyong also needed one. So must as well I document the installation procedure for him as well. Researched abit on available forum scripts (phpbb, smf, etc.) and in the end settled with SMF for its lighter memory footprint.
