X-Mas Beta Release CH3SNAS 1.03b5

December 21, 2007

Okay, the guys from Conceptronic just released the 1.03b5 firmware as the feedback from customers was really helpful solving issues. Next to fixing 2 issues one wanted feature was added.

Fixed: RAID issue 

Raid roaming is not (yet) supported. Means that it’s not guaranteed that a Raid Array keeps existing after inserting the 2 HDD’s in another CH3SNAS box.  I believe that to keep the array alive the other CH3SNAS must be configured to RAID1 already.

Fixed is the issue that trying above feature the RAID array in the original CH3SNAS was broken. When ftp was used wrong volume names and labels were used.

Added feature: FTP -H option 

After our update of the FTP server to PureFTP we received reports from some users that they were not able to logon quickly (20 seconds or more waiting time).

We fixed this to add the -H option starting the ftp server (-H means that there will be no reverse DNS lookup)

Fixed: Restarting UPnP Server on DHCP 

Most debugging we did on the UPnP AV Server. 

We discovered that when streaming data  to a mediaplayer at random times the stream was disconnected. Debugging showed that if the lease of the DHCP was ended the whole startup script was executed again causing the UPnP Server to be restarted as well. Especially when playing long MP3 files this issue was shown.

Please note that this issue was caused using DHCP. When using fixed IP this issue did not occur.

Update: wrong file added in the rar file :-( My Mistake.. It’s fixed now.
