Rcording to storage

[clvk07]

Hi

Using AC88U with merlin 382.1. Have USB storage connected to AC88u. I am trying to set up a camera and usw the USB to record. However the camera only accepts one level NAS SMB directory //192.168.1.1/camera.

My current setup is //192.168.1.1/TOURO/camera. ( I also have entware installed on another usb //192.168.1.1/entware)

Is there anyway I can set up some redirection rules to address the issue?

Go to http://192.168.1.1/Advanced_AiDisk_samba.asp and enable Simpler share naming (without the disk name)

I have it enabled but it will still need the device name (you cant write on root see picture)

This example creates a share called Intranet which is a link to asusware/Intranet

Change the names to camera and TOURO/camera as appropriate.

sorry where should I create the symbolic link? it seems that I can not create it in /tmp/mnt/ as every time the routers reboot it gets deleted. (see picture)

I'm guessing that you didn't follow step 3 in the instructions?

EDIT: I think I might see the problem. Do you have "guest login" enabled?

EDIT 2: If you are using guest login's you'll have to use a different technique. So you can ignore all of those previous instructions. Just create the following file as /jffs/configs/smb.conf.add

[camera]
comment = Camera Files
path = /tmp/mnt/TOURO/camera
writeable = yes
dos filetimes = yes
fake directory create times = yes

Then reboot the router and you should see your new share. That's all.

didn't work but I think something is wrong with the usb drive, no permissions on the folders (see attached). I tried to enable guest login and create a folder but when I click on create it doesn't create the folder and nothing happens... When I get sometime I will upgrade the usb drive and try again. For now I got a workaround by saving the videos on a memory card on the camera and then moving the files to the usb via ftp (from the camera) thanks for your help
