TeraStation

The most useful starting place for the TeraStation is at TeraStation.org.

If you want to fetch many useful pre-compiled binaries for your Terastation, you can get many from Ring Mirror FTP. Since the Terastation does not come with rpm, I have found the easiest is to use:

% mkdir tmp
% cd tmp
% rpm2cpio ../downloaded-binary.rpm | cpio -idv
% tar -zcpf ../binary.tgz .

Then just untaring the binary.tgz on your Terastation.

In addition, I have done my own compiles for it.

llink
lundftpd

llink

llink is my own Media Server Daemon, simiar to PCcast and wizzd. It is a bit more lightweight, certainly no way near as full of eye candy as the alternatives. It is unlikely anyone else would want to run it as I have yet to find someone to do a skin for it. llink currently comes with my very sparse default skin.

Download: llink build 258

lundftpd

LundFTPD compiled for the TeraStation. When I tested it against the FTPD that comes with the TeraStation, I got the following stats for sending files to it:

TS Proftpd      lundftpd         lundftpd+SSL
 4166KB/s       4999KB/s          3682KB/s

Download: LundFTPD 3.06

But your results may vary. Again, there is perhaps no direct advantage for others to change to a different FTPD. Unless you want SSL, CCSN, SSCN, dupe, XDUPE etc. Please find more details at LundFTPD Home and Lundman's Forums.
