Drop2NAS is an excellent functionality, but it is hindered by the choice of default download location, in the admin directory. Is there a way to change it to somewhere else?

I know the web UI doesn't provide for that, but I wouldn't mind having to SSH into the box and making a change by manually editing config files. Where is the config file for the dropbox plugin?

    Thanks. Yes, config is there, but the file is an SQL Lite database, and as such not readily editable.

    Also, Drop2NAS was superseded with full-blown DropBox sync app in latest FW versions (somewhere between v5.0 and v5.20), so it's no longer just emptying one DropBox directory to a local file system.

    Now just adding a cron job to periodically empty a local DropBox directory onto somewhere else will do the trick nicely.
