- They changed the ftp-server to allow anonymous connections (finally!):
Host: 24.153.165.234 Username: anonymous Password: anonymous Path: /disk1/share
direct link for your browser: ftp://24.153.165.234/disk1/share
What does Buffalo Technology think about all this?
- We haven’t been contacted by Buffalo Technology nor have we seen them comment on the LinkStationWiki. The Japanese LinkStation hacking community is quite active so it’s safe to assume they are aware of LinkStation hacking and this site.
Who are the administrators?
- Mindbender, timtim, andre and flavoie are part of the admin team.
What website software does the LinkStationWiki use?
- We currently are using MediaWiki for the wiki, phpBB for the forums and Mantis for the bug tracking software.
- phpBB3 is a needed update to miniBB as the community grows. ~24 April 2007
