Hello, can anybody help me find instructions and packages?

Many thanks

Now that is strange. gnuTLS is a TLS library, which provides encryption, and which for instance can be used for https connections. Didn't know wget could use it at all. But in your case it tries to download a file from a http server, so it shouldn't be needed.
What happens if you download it manually and install it?

wget http://zyxel.ddnss.eu/Users/Mijzelf/Entware-ng/binaries/armv5/zyxel-samba-replacement_3.6.25_all.ipk

opkg install zyxel-samba-replacement_3.6.25_all.ipk

Thanks for the quick answer, but I cannot find opkg on my NAS, I am not a linux expert, but I don't see it anyware.

How can I get it?

Thanks

opkg is the package manager of Entware-ng. So you first have to install Entware-ng. There are several ways to do that, but the easiest is by installing MetaRepository (2nd link). Then it shows up in your installable package list.

sorry to disturb You again, I installed Metarepository by pointing the web_prefix to

http://zyxel.ddnss.eu/Users/Mijzelf/zypkg-repo/

but clicking again on Retrieve list from internet, it does not show any package.

I tried also with the web_prefix pointed to https, but same results.

Can You please help me find were I go wrong?

Thanks

You /have/ installed MetaRepository? In that case MR has exchanged web_prefix by it's own version, pointing to localhost. If you can't revert, reboot. MR will create a new one.

When clicking 'Retreive', there should a logfile be created in \\admin\zy-pkgs\MetaRepository\, ZYPKGS.log, or something like that. That should tell why there are no packages.

Hello,

following your suggestion I managed to install Entware from MR, but, sorry I am not an expert, I am not able to find the folder where to run OPKG.

I checked on /usr/bin and /bin

but i couldn't find the command OPKG. Please can you help me?

tonytogna · September 24

Hello, I think I found where opkg is, but it gives me an error, probably the installation was not correct?

root@NASAT :/opt/bin# dir
opkg
root@NASAT :/opt/bin# opkg update
sh: opkg: command not found

Thanks

In Linux an executable is searched in the PATH (and environment variable containing all directories where executables are to be found) unless you specify another directory. In this case you want to specify the current directory. So the command would be ./opkg . You could also execute /opt/bin/opkg .

tonytogna · September 25

Hello, thanks for the explanation about how to run the executables, but now I have an additional problem 😫

root@NASAT:/opt/bin# ./opkg update

sh: ./opkg: Input/output error

tonytogna · September 26

Hello, I have restarted from the beginning, Metarepository and then Entware, I found the log, and there see some errors, and I have a doubt because it seems it is not downloading data from your folders…
