Duo V2 HTTP redirect on share

Web based (HTTP) share access is not supported by the 5.3.x firmware. Whether is will be supported in future is unknown

This is not currently a GUI option on the v2 system. It could be done manually via SSH console, but not everyone is familiar enough with that.

That's unfortunate :(

Thanks anyway guys.

If you are willing to use SSH shouldn't be too hard with a little bit of help here.

Sure, any tips would be great.

I have enabled ssh on my readynas NV+ v2. I am comfortable enough using bash and vi.

Which files would I need edit to enable http via the ssh console?

EDIT: PLEASE REMOVE THIS ADD-ON BEFORE UPDATING TO 5.3.5 (CURRENTLY IN PUBLIC BETA). THIS ADD-ON IS NO LONGER NEEDED AS YOU CAN DO WHAT THIS ADD-ON DOES VIA THE WEB UI. On the Dashboard Click Configure. Under System > Services click HTTP then redirect default web access to the webserver (or whatever you've named it) share.

Sorry for not get back onto this sooner.

I've written an add-on to do this: http://rnasguide.com/wp-content/addons/arm/bins/WEBSERVER_0.1-T1-arm.bin

To install on the Dashboard, click Configure, go to the Add-ons tab, click the + button at the far right, browse for the location where you downloaded the add-on, upload the add-on etc.

This add-on requires that you have created a share called "webserver" (no quotes). Also note that the Dashboard will say that the installation failed when it does not. You can ignore this error.

What follows is how to do it manually:

Using the default Dashboard apache configs do the following:

Create a share e.g. "webserver". The following example assumes you have chosen this name. If you haven't replace all references to "webserver" with the name you chose.

Edit /etc/frontview/apache/Shares.conf (e.g. using "vi" - google for MAN page) to look like this:

Alias "/webserver" "/c/webserver"
<Location "/webserver">
  Options Indexes
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
</Location>


RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/$ /webserver [R,L]

Then in /etc/frontview/apache/Virtual.conf add the line

RewriteRule ^/$ /webserver [R,L]

This should be above the other RewriteRule lines.

After that you need to restart apache.

# /usr/sbin/apache-ssl -f /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf -t && /usr/sbin/apache-ssl -f /etc/frontview/apache/httpd.conf -k graceful

The config you would set may be a little different using the improved apache config found here: http://gitorious.org/readynas/apache-configs (note this improved config is not used by the add-on I linked to above).

Thank you very much for your prompt response mdgm.

I followed the manual steps you outlined (I was using a different share name) and now the web pages I'd created for my internal network are working fine again.

Hopefully this functionality is returned to frontview in v5.3.4

The web-interface on the ARM units is called the Dashboard. Would be nice to see this functionality in the GUI.

Thanks mdgm! Used the add-on and it worked perfectly.
