Hi, I've been using FreeWRT on my Asus WL-500gP for quite a while now and I was wondering if someone is trying to get Linux 2.6 to work? The wl-500gP has a bcm4318 wireless NIC which should be supported by the native kernel driver in 2.6.24 or later.
But a far more important question is if there are any patches for Samba 3 to work with FreeWRT. Samba 2 is very outdated, buggy, has quite a few security issues and it does not support UTF-8. Newer Win***s versions also seem to have problems with Samba 2 shares. I know Samba 3 would be pretty large, but this really is not an issue when you have 2 USB 2.0 ports with external drives connected. Enabling the user to choose between Samba 2 and Samba 3 would be pretty cool. Btw: selecting UTF-8 as default charset in FreeWRT's "make menuconfig" breaks the samba compilation :( - Daniel
