Hi,

is it possible to have eisfair or feenas server running while booting from an USB device?

Sorry, I don't know if those pages are available in english as well but possibly some of you can read it.

Cheers

Freenas is for FreeBSD. It can't run with linux kernel.
Seems Eisfair can be installed but can be hard for the CPU.

Both gives you WEB, MAIL, PRINTER, CIFS (samba), FTP and NFS servers (and others).
It can be done with Openwrt and Webif without full web admin.
Webif can be fully configured to support our device and services since it is done with sh/bash scripts.

I've got all thoose things running on my White Russian, so surely it can be done in Kamikaze as well.

I am currently working on using my SMC as my "home server" as it is faster than my current one (right now I use ASUS WL-500G Premium with White Russian).

That will include Print Server, www / PHP, Samba and FTP.

Later I'll probably try to get mail, NFS and Asterisk running as well.

On WhiteRussian it all works (havent used NFS, but all the other services work fine).

the thing is, that the above two (ok, freenas won't run) feature very easy to use interfaces, whereas I am struggling with the administration of the release on this page.
I need to set up FTP and SMB. As for FTP I need to easily create users, with own and separate FTP space, allow different settings, such as quota, download limit, separate source dirs, etc.
I was not able to do this in this release...

Do you know which ftp server that eisfair / freenas is running ?

The things you mention can be done in OpenWrt - no question about it, it is just a matter of how :-)
