Kuro http pages for debian
This is an early work in progress ! Still a lot of work to make this complete !
Contents
Introduction
You may know the Kuro-box HTTP interface that allow to manage many things like samba shares and many other things !
As I love these pages, I decided to make them running with Debian !
Progress
Legend :
(P) = ported thing : It was existing before, but needed some modifications in CGI code or system files
(N) = new feature : It's something new in the interface.
(B) = bug fix : There are some bugs in the administartion pages/scripts, it's better to correct them !
Things done
- (P) Porting main http structure
- (P) IP set to 192.168.11.150 if no DHCP server found (and configured to run in DHCP)
- (P) NTP synchronisation at startup if enabled (needs ntp and ntpdate)
- (P) NTP cron job at a defined hour if enabled (needs cron)
- (P) Network link stats in status page (need ethtool)
- (N) HDD temperature information (need hddtemp)
- (P) Samba users management (need samba)
- (B) There is an anoying bug about the workgroup setup not working => Using my scripts, i don't have this bug ...
- (P) Samba shares handling
Things to do, or not yet finished
- (P) USB drive handling (need udev & usbmount)
- (P) AppleTalk management
- (P) FTP management
- (P) Automatic backup
- (P) Kurobox sleep
- (P) USB printer sharing
- (N) Add a reboot menu
- (N) Add some server applications configuration pages (including mt-daapd, amule ...)
Things that people would like to have
Feel free to add anything here (with no garantee it will be added)
- Jukebox to play music on your Kuro
- Wizd and configuration editor
- uShare uPnP media server
Needed packages
For now, these packages are needed :
apt-get install hddtemp ntp ntpdate ethtool cron udev usbmount samba nkf proftpd
Needed files
These files are needed for the http pages to work :
/etc/melco/* /etc/atalk/ /etc/init.d/networking /etc/init.d/ntpdate /etc/init.d/mkshinfo /etc/init.d/chkshare /etc/cron.daily/ntpdate /etc/timezone /etc/linkstation_release /etc/rc2.d/S10ntpdate (ln -s ../init.d/ntpdate S10ntpdate) /etc/rcS.d/S48mkshinfo (ln -s ../init.d/mkshinfo S48mkshinfo) /var/www/cgi-bin/* /var/www/image/* /var/www/help/* /var/www/errors/* /bin/mkcode /bin/chk_ip /sbin/mkshinfo /usr/bin/parse_usbscsi /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf /etc/usbmount/mount.d/01_update_mnt2_usbinfo_files (ln -s /usr/bin/parse_usbscsi 01_update_mnt2_usbinfo_files) /etc/usbmount/umount.d/01_update_mnt2_usbinfo_files (ln -s /usr/bin/parse_usbscsi 01_update_mnt2_usbinfo_files) /bin/ifconfig (ln -s /sbin/ifconfig ifconfig) /etc/init.d/ftpd
For preliminar wlan support :
/usr/sbin/setmacfilter.sh ...
Scripts to write
There is some applications from melco that are written in C, and we have no access to source ! Some scripts need to be rewritten as they can't work anymore in a 2.6 kernel, or because some applications are not working the same way than before !
mkcode
Known actions
mkcode application is the application that create some configuration files for Samba, Netatalk and xxFTPD
> mkcode Samba/Netatalk/xxFTPD configuration file generetor: mkcode 1.20/ppc, May 16 2005 for HD-HGLAN(BUFFALO INC.), uses sjis usage: mkcode options[-s/-a/-f].
It uses the configuration file /etc/melco/shareinfo /etc/melco/shareinfo file looks like that :
share<>all<>all<>Win/Mac<>777<>777<>KURO-BOX Share Folder<>0<>0; music<>all<>all<>Win/Mac<>777<>777<>KURO-BOX Share Folder<>0<>0;
The template is :
directory name<>users list<>groups list<>OS support<>create mode<>directory mode<>Shared Folder Description<>Folder attribute<>Recycler bin;
with
users list = (empty) : no user can access this share all : all users can access this share user1 : only user1 can access this share user1,user2,... : list of users that can access this share groups list = (empty) : no groups can access this share all : all groups can access this share @group1 : all users of group1 can access this share @group1,@group2,@... : all users of listed groups can access this share OS support = Win : Windows Support (aka Samba) Mac : MacOS Support (aka Appletalk) Win/Mac : Both OS support (Samba & Appletalk) create mode & directory mode = 777 : Created files and directories are created with 777 mode (all users can access the files from telnet/ssh) Folder attributes = 0 : Read/Write 1 : Read only 2 : Not shared (new feature) Recycler bin = 0 : disabled 1 : enabled
Samba configuration file
When calling mkcode -s, mkcode check every entries in /etc/melco/shareinfo and create a /etc/samba/smb.conf file with these sections :
[global]
to be completed
[global] client code page = 850 character set = ISO8859-1 workgroup = WORKGROUP server string = Kuro-Box socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=12288 SO_RCVBUF=12288 dns proxy = No netbios name = KURO-BOX os level = 1 wins server = security = user encrypt passwords = Yes obey pam restrictions = Yes pam password change = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n *passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully* unix password sync = yes guest account = nobody null passwords = yes guest only = no username level = 12 password level = 8 map to guest = Bad User browsable = no preserve case = yes short preserve case = yes veto files = /.AppleDesktop/Network Trash Folder/TheVolumeSettingsFolder/.AppleDouble/.AppleDB/ delete veto files = yes invalid users = mail, deamon, adt admin users = root username map = /etc/samba/smbusers getwd cache = yes printcap name = /etc/printcap load printers = yes printing = lprng
[lp]
It's the section for printer sharing
[lp] comment = Network Printer for Windows path = /mnt/spool/samba print command = /usr/bin/lpr -Plp -r %s printer admin = root browsable = yes printable = yes public = yes
Then we have a section per shared folders (list is in /etc/melco/shareinfo) :
[shared_folder] comment = comment from /etc/melco/shareinfo path = path of the directory (/mnt/shared_folder) browsable = yes printable = no writable = yes (if Folder attributes = 0)/no (if Folder attributes = 1)
if sharing is restricted to some users/groups, then we have that line :
valid users = user1,user2, @group1,@group2
force create mode = 777 force directory mode = 777
if recycler is enabled (Recycler bin = 1), we have these lines :
vfs object = /usr/lib/samba/recycle.so vfs options = /etc/samba/recycle.conf
Changes because of Samba v3.x.x
HTTP pages were using Samba v2.x.x, but as we're using Samba v3.x.x, we have to update some little things :
The way users are stored
With Samba 2.x.x, we were using smbpasswd to create samba's users, with Samba v3.x.x, we have to use pdbedit
The way the recycler works
Configuration is different, we have to set something like that in the share's section :
vfs object = recycle recycle:repository = .trash/ recycle:keeptree = Yes recycle:touch = Yes recycle:versions = Yes recycle:maxsixe = 0 recycle:exclude = *.tmp recycle:exclude_dir = /tmp recycle:noversions = *.doc
Perl script
Warning : it's still a work in progress script even if it allows to generate samba configuration file !

Things to improve
Done :
- You can now tell that you don't want to share a folder in /mnt !
mkshinfo
Known actions
Check folders in /mnt and add unconfigured folders in /etc/melco/shareinfo. Check /etc/melco/shareinfo and creates unexisting shares in /mnt. The original application was sharing folders that where not already in the shareinfo file, but now that we can tell not to share a folder, if the folder have been created by hand, we can consider that we don't want to share it !

chk_ip
Known actions
It checks that the given IP address and subnet address are correct (it's called when you want to fix kurobox's IP) :
> chk_ip ip_address subnet_address
Forbidden IP address :
- 0.0.0.0 (network address)
IP address is network address!
- 127.0.0.1 (loopback)
IP address is reserved!
- 255.255.255.255 (broadcast)
IP address is broadcast address!
- class D addresses : 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255
IP address is Class D
- class E addresses : 240.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.254
IP address is Class E
- If submask address is 255.255.255.255
IP address is broadcast address!
- If address and submask are ok :
IP address and sub netmask is correct

parse_usbscsi
Known actions
It's parsing /proc/scsi/usb-storage-*/* to find supported devices and fills to files with some information :
- /mnt2/usbinfo/list that contains a list of /dev/sd? devices plugged. For example :
> cat /mnt2/usbinfo/list /dev/sda /dev/sdc
- /mnt2/usbinfo/exist that contains several informations separated by ',' :
> cat /mnt2/usbinfo/exist /dev/sda,00JB-55GVA0 ,HDD /dev/sdc,HA250JC ,HDD
Original parse_usbscsi only supports devices tagged in /proc/scsi/scsi as "Type:" equal to
- Direct-Access
- Optical Device
- Optical-Device
- HardDisk
- Hard Disk
There are 2 problems :
- In 2.6 kernel, USB devices are stored in /proc/scsi/usb-storage/* (0,1,2 ...)
- Limiting support for listed types will prevent most of the USB thumbdrives to work
We will correct these 2 problems with our script ;)
Perl script
This script is not working well, and it's not written in the best way (it's calling 'awk' command but this part should be rewritten in PERL by someone who knows PERL better than me). For now the /mnt2/usbinfo/exist output is wrong but it seems to work that way. I'll correct that later. The main problem is that the content of the files is not exact all the time. Need some work to see how to make things correct !
