[SOLVED] Mount a remote FTP share on a USB directory ?

Post by rootkeys »

Hi,

I would like to mount a remote internet FTP share in a directory on my USB stick in order to share it via Gargoyle's vsftpd.

How could i do that ? (mount)

Is it possible to replace gargoyle vsftpd by open wrt vsftpd-tls package ?

Thanks
best regards

Well...
As far I had RTFM, i need a CurlFtpFS package to get this work.

Does this package exist for a TL-WR1043ND v 2.1 on Gargoyle v 1.8 ?

At least, thanks to readers. :lol:

hi,

For those who may be interested to install curlftpfs on gargoyle 1.8.1, from Barrier Breaker repository :

You 'll have to downgrade licurl to 7.29 because the 7.38 giving "error setting curl:", with no other message to help you.

So, that's what i did, after adding the "oldpakages" branch in gargoyle sources

- opkg install curlftpfs (it installs libcurl, glib2, curlftpfs, libpolarssl)
- opkg remove curlftpfs
- opkg remove libcurl
- donwload libcurl 7.29 from attitude adjustement repository
- opkg install /path/to/dowloaded/licurl-7-29.ipk -w
- opkg install curlftpfs

Ok done ! and works fine :-)

6 months to find the (very simple) solution, alone, whithout help, and without a piece of information from google...

Seem's to be few peopple concerned by this problem. Probably solved, but no feed back to forum communitys :evil:

Here is the solution.
;)
