exFAT from GitHub

[jensmander]

Hi.

 

I recently stumbled across this project:

 

https://github.com/luckylz2git/exfat-synology

 

Tested on DSM 6.1.7 (bare metal) and works without any problems.

Hi, just found this thread.

 

As I am very interested in getting exFat running on my Xpenology for sure I'll give it a try. Altough I'm a bit concerned to not beeing able to go though the SSH or Telnet thing. It would be my first time doing this. 

 

For instance:

 #2 SSH to NAS & enable root account;

ssh admin@ipaddress  | pretty sure I have to type in my ipaddress

sudo su - synouser --setpw root your_new_root_password | is "synouser" a placeholder for my account name and "password" as well ?

Hi TNa. I was happy to see this post, as i also would be quite happy paying for the plugin.

I did however install it successfully on my 3615xs and it is pretty straight forward.

 

Log in as a user and "sudo su -" then when requested, input the user password for the account you're loggin in as.

then type in "synouser --setpw root <YOUR PASSWORD HERE>

 

This sets the root users password.

Hope it helps.

It is also worth reading down the full information on the link above as there are a couple more things to do to get this working. They're not difficult, but definately worth while doing.
