Hi,

I'm a new member in this forum and I'm not sure if it is still active...

I replaced the original firmware of my WD Netcenter 320 with the firmware made by Epias (1.1.0.0003.E029).
Works great. I can now access my netcenter using telnet and FTP.
To extend these new features even futher, I tried to install IPKG following the instructions from Mafe (software zum nachinstallieren(IPKG) , in the HowTo's)

All seems to be ok. However when I excute ipkg it returns the following message:

#export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib:/opt/lib
#/opt/bin/ipkg-cl -f /opt/etc/ipkg.conf update
/opt/bin/ipkg-cl: cannot execute
#

I have very little knowledge of Linux.
Could somebody explain to me why I am unable to execute ipkg-cl

I noticed that the executables from /proc (like /proc/cpuinfo) throw he same message:
# /proc/cpuinfo
/proc/cpuinfo: cannot execute
#

Thanks in advance,
Jan-Paul

Dear Jan-Paul,

First /proc/cpuinfo is NOT an executable!
The /proc is a mountpoint for a special file system.
You can do: cat /proc/cpuinfo to read that file.

Now back to ipkg-cl. Check that the program is executable.
Use: ls -l and it should show x's for owner, group and world.
Here is what I have:

# cd /opt/bin
# ls -l ipkg-cl
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 179609 Feb 3 2007 ipkg-cl
#

To get the correct permissions use the command:

# chmod 755 /opt/bin/ipkg-cl

Use Google to learn more about basic Linux commands.

Good luck,
