== Autostarting llink on a Synology NAS ==
If you want to autostart llink upon boot in your NAS you may use this script. <br>It is confirmed to work on a CS-406 with firmware 518, but in theory it would work for all x07 and x06 models.


'''NOTES'''<br>
'''Make sure you change the path to llink correctly in the script below.'''''<br>
'''You use this script at your own risk''', the author will not be liable for any problems derived from using this script.

# With kind help from lundman and Kalle Andersson
# Version 1.1
# This enables autostart of the llink media server on Synology NAS.
# Look at lundman.net or networkedmediatank.com for more information.

# Make sure we have a clean start
if [ "$1" = "stop" ]; then
       killall llink
   exit 0
fi

#Make sure this is the correct path to llink:
llink="/volume1/llink-2.0.8_x06_ppc/src/llink"

#Check if llink exist; if so then run it, else say that it didn't work:
cd  `dirname $llink` && ./llink || echo "$llink or its directory doesn't exist, and check permissions!"

# End of script
</pre>

Login as root on your NAS. Save the script as <code>S89llink.sh</code> and place it in your llink directory, eg. <code>/volume1/llink-X.Y.Z-synology_x06_ppc/</code>. Don't use notepad, make sure it's a UNIX compliant editor, such as '''vi''' which is available on the NAS. 
Put a link to this script in the <code>/etc/rc.local</code> file: <code>/volume1/llink-X.Y.Z-synology_x06_ppc/S89llink.sh  # llink streaming media server</code>

Change the permissions: <code>$ chmod 755 /volume1/llink-X.Y.Z-synology_x06_ppc/script/S89llink.sh</code>

And then llink shall start after reboot. You will see "llink-daemon" among the media sources listed on the NMT media extender.


=== Notes ===
Linux is cAsE sEnsitiVe! 

Update the script with the right version (X.Y.Z) and the right cpu family (x06_ppc or x07_arm).

The script should not brake after a firmware update, but make sure you have a copy.
If you want to run another skin from boot than the default Aquarius_720, change like this:
<pre>
cd  `dirname $llink` && ./llink || echo "$llink or its directory doesn't exist, and check permissions!"
</pre>
to
<pre>
cd  `dirname $llink` && ./llink -f jukebox.conf || echo "$llink or its directory doesn't exist, and check permissions!"
</pre>

Eg. just add <code>-f <skin conf filename></code>
