This weekend I received my new NAS server, a Sarotech Wizplat NAS-20. After installing my two 1TB in it to build a RAID array, I soon noticed the following:

• my old (bricked) Giganas configuartion, which was still on the disks, was being read, but only partially working. I had to remove the partitions from the disk in my PC, install them back in the NAS before being able to configure them in the NAS
• The NAS is making less Noise than my Raidsonic Icy Box 4220
• The webinterface look and feel of the Icybox and the NAS-20 s very similar
• Out of the box the NAS-20 however has less functionality; no twonkey server, no DHCP server, no SSH-server – Of which I mostly disliked the lack of a UPnP media streaming service.

But, after spending some time googling, I found a very good piece of software called Fonz Fun-Plug (or FFP).

Following the instruction from this page, I had a working ffp with mediatomb up and running in no time.

I’m at the moment fine-tuning the configuration, but think I will soon be able to migrate all my media over to this NAS, and use it as my primary server.

Next topics on the wishlist (to be able to retire my old Linksys UnSlung-2) is a LDAP server.

I was now able to unplug some devices, because all functions were taken over by the new Fritzbox:
Sagem 3464 – Only acting as bridge
Firtzbox 7170 – Providing my PPPOE connectivity
Cisco 837 – Acting as DHCP server, because of being able to pass options (like TFTP server info) to the clients.

I have the new 7390 now running with Freetz additions, to be able to use DNSMASQ and some other packages.

A thank you to:
Philippe for providing some tips through the userbase.be forum
The Freetz team for providing this brilliant piece of software

I managed to find a way to insert spaces between the thumbnails, by adding the below code to my style.css file

/* ******************** */
/* CoppermineSC classes */
/* ******************** */

.cpg_albumthumbimage {
float: left;
margin-right: 7px;
margin-bottom: 7px;

Hi,

just like we did some years ago, we would like to organize a Glühweinparty again in Germany. Temperature is low at the moment, so ideal circumstances for such an event.
