Finally found some time to do the patch and compiling the new binaries for DNS-313/DNS-323/DNS-343. Again these archives are for those boxes running on fonz’s fun_plug 0.5. Installation instructions are similar to MLDonkey 2.9.6.
Download
- mldonkey-2.9.6-full-2 - eDonkey, BitTorrent, fileTP, DirectConnect
- mldonkey-2.9.6-normal-2 - eDonkey, BitTorrent, fileTP
- mldonkey-2.9.6-lite-2 - BitTorrent, fileTP
Download (with gd)
- mldonkey-2.9.6-full-3 - eDonkey, BitTorrent, fileTP, DirectConnect
- mldonkey-2.9.6-normal-3 - eDonkey, BitTorrent, fileTP
- mldonkey-2.9.6-lite-3 - BitTorrent, fileTP
Note: Release 3 (-3) are compiled with graphical libraries. Hence you would need to install gd-2.0.35-1.tgz (or newer), libjpeg-6b-1.tgz (or newer) and libpng-1.2.29-1.tgz (or newer) on your NAS before you can start mlnet. Other wise you will see the message “can’t load library ‘libgd.so.2′” and/or “can’t load library ‘libjpeg.so.62′” in your mlnet.log.
Installing graphical support on your NAS
Telnet to your DNS-323 (or equivalent) and issue the following commands.
/ # cd /mnt/HD_a2
/mnt/HD_a2 # wget http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/packages/gd-2.0.35-1.tgz
/mnt/HD_a2 # wget http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/packages/libjpeg-6b-1.tgz
/mnt/HD_a2 # wget http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/packages/libpng-1.2.29-1.tgz
/mnt/HD_a2 # funpkg -i gd-2.0.35-1.tgz
/mnt/HD_a2 # funpkg -i libjpeg-6b-1.tgz
/mnt/HD_a2 # funpkg -i libpng-1.2.29-1.tgz
After which, you could proceed with release 3.

Just compiled MLDonkey 2.9.5 for DNS-323. Seems like the folks have fixed up quite a bit of stuffs!
Download MLDonkey 2.9.5 from here.
MLdonkey 2.9.3 has been released on the 19th of January 2008. Compiled it a few days back, recompiled it every now and then. Noticed that the size of the binary has increased quite a bit.
Didn’t see any significant changes in the changelog for MLDonkey 2.9.3. I am offering the MLDonkey client in three flavors again - real simple edition, normal, and full. The procedures for setting up the real simple edition is exactly the same as 2.9.2. Simply extract the files of the real simple edition onto your Volume_1 and reboot.
Head over to MLDonkey for DNS-323 to grab your copy of MLDonkey 2.9.3 for your DNS-323, DNS-313, CH3SNAS, etc.
It seems that MLDonkey is getting popular among users of DNS-323 and it various similar NAS like DNS-313, CH3SNAS, DNS-312H, etc. All of these NAS have similar or common processors and architecture making binaries compiled on one NAS portable to another NAS.
I am glad that some actually help me out on my bandwidth problem by hosting the required files in your own communities. This has prevented my website from bursting its monthly bandwidth quota.
