Neptune354

Hi,

First post here, looked at he gpl code at linksys for ages but didn't find any good info about how to build the lot. After finding this site all things fall into place . Big thank you for Marco and other contributors. In fact I don't own an 354G but got a WAG54GV2. Nevertheless a working toolchain was provided in a WAG54V2 gpl tarball and picked things up from there and build me an own 1.02.23 WAG54GV2 firmware. With the instructions as provided it was a breeze. Thanks a mil.

Just getting the hang of things but my next goal is to enable telnet before starting another spin of planet project... It seems only these lines has to be edited.


But that doesn't work. Any ideas which additional files has to be edited to enable telnet. ? Looked at cvs code and found out that marco enabled telnet before initial import so can't retrace his steps...

TIA.

Ah, still finding my way into the source. Seems I need to make some adjustments to router/Makefile to actually build telnetd. After that telnetd starts and it's possible to connect. But after user pass it bails out with invalid pass. Hmm hunting again... Using webinterface user and pass btw.

update: making myself a bit ridiculous asking Q and answering my own Q, but made some change's to mketc.c to use sh instead of configurator. (not in the source anyway). Seems to work...

If I remember right all you have to do is edit the file router/rc/mketc.c and change from "/bin/configurator" to "/bin/sh", so that after the login you could bring up a shell.
Look here: https://opensvn.csie.org/neptune354/tru ... rc/mketc.c

Maybe you should also take a look at the "pluto" project that already works on the wag54g: http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-re ... m?t=588103

cheers

thanks mate, i beat you to it , thanks anyway.

But yeah I might want to take a closer look at the pluto project although it is firmware for the AU WAG54V2, slightly different hardware than the EU WAG54V2 IIRC. But I seem to get the hang of things modifying this source. At first you don't know where to look but now the mystery unfolds...
