I'm trying to solve exactly the same problems you were struggling with and was hedging between a D-Link DNS-323 and a Drobo. Thanks for making the choice an easy one, and for the thoroughness and helpfulness of this post!

if you have made the scripts in windows with note pad,word or most text reader/creators then the scrips wont work as when they convert over in the dns some of the lettering goes out of sink and is replaced with incorrect icons etc best to down load the ones already on here and drag and drop into place, hope this gives you some help in the right direction as this page is almost dead now but the creator was great and helpfull.

I get them saved and do the crontab test and even see the watchdog script, but no log file is generated. On reboot crontab disappears. ==== Transmission - 1.92 ==== The links that are posted for tranmission implementation with in this entry are no longer hosted, so is vi library link.

After i update the dns 323 for several months now with no problems and all horto's work has been working fine till now. I have upgraded to firmware 1.08, i found that the torrent watch script to have stopped working. when i checked the crontab it did not list the torrentwatchdog.sh so i came back here and read the tutorial again and re did the crontab work around. I will report back if it worked. thanks badmanhop.

I followed the steps line by line for setting up everything up to and including Transmission, and then stopped there before the auto-loading torrents. I load a torrent into Transmission and get "Destination folder does not exist". I read through all the comments and saw the one on making the folders recursive. Did that, and still, "Destination folder does not exist". Any ideas on what I'm missing? Thanks Ok, pretty new at linux and brand new at trying to configure my DNS-323.
