Various Readynas Firmwares - Update / Feature Request or Bug fix
Hi Haven't used this new Forum so hopefully I'm posting in the correct place. I notice it's roughly been a year since the last firmware update for what seems to be called Legacy products. (Sp...

We will only see bug fixes and security fixes, they won't add or enhance features on legacy firmware.
I think this almost certainly applies to the second request you make (in other words, they won't update it) The first request- I suppose is not working as it should, are you using the new raidar?

In relation to point 1.
Raidar 4.3.8 - during the file system check phase displays the message "file system check, x%" where x counts up correctly.
It then sticks with the message either "file system check, 99% or 100%" during the quota check.
Raidar 6.0.0 - during the same phase just shows "checking filesystem" with no percentage complete.
During the quota check it shows a message "checking quota" but no percentage complete.
This is for the Sparc based units, I believe it did correctly work at one stage for both phases. I've 6 sparc based units and several more on another site.
Point 2 - again have 7 units of 2100 on one site.
It's possible for a misconfigured DNS server to prevent sending of emails to certain addresses, when sending to multiple addresses, exim 4 fixes this by allowing you to state where an email should be sent when the DNS server doesn't return a MX record for a domain. You could in a strange way say this is a security issue if someone was to deliberately misconfigure a DNS server in order to activate the bug in exim 3 thus preventing the NAS unit crying for help, but i'll admit it's a bit far fetched.
For some reason my user name seems to have changed to bullfrog1 now - intriguing.
