Expensive being a relative term, consider this, with an E02/USB 2.0 on gigabit LAN I can retrieve large files at a cool 24 MB/sec from USB stick and around 30 MB/sec with external USB 2.0 hard drive.. To put this in perspective, the USB 2.0 port on a Rosewill gigabit router accesses files at around 7-8 MB/sec.

When it comes to torrents via Tranmission on a Debian Pogoplug, wow that's awesome; set it and forget it. But I noticed on my high-wattage desktop there's some large unfinished torrents. So i import the .torrent file into Transmission, let the folders build and then pause. Then copy the 1/2 baked content files to the repository, Verify Local Data and then start.

Wow guys, order has appeared out of chaos. I learned something that may be of importance to other Linux newbs. With FileZilla installed and configured using RDP to XFCE, if you close the RDP connection it'll still run, and you can RDP later to check on it. The same session will open. This might sound humorous to those who know, but in the past whatever I was doing (maybe closing the GUI fby JoeyPogoPlugE02 - Off-Topic
Pretty sure that's for like if you have a GoDaddy site or something, you'd copy it in the folder hierarchy and find it somehow. If I read that right. Not that a Pogoplug/Debian is so far removed, but you'd think running in Pogoplug you'd want this somehow started with a start command. If you/me nails this, a headless FTP, it's convenient for us and green for the world.by JoeyPogoPlugE02 - Off-Topic
Gents, help me with this one and I'll be out of your hair. I've got FileZilla installed and it works to the server i wanted to connect to. This accessed through RDP from a Windows machine and XFCE running. Unless/until there's a headless way to do the same thing, can I turn off the high-watt Windows machine still and it keeps going?by JoeyPogoPlugE02 - Off-Topic
Wow thanks a lot. I was able to get it installed (the armel version) but the dependencies had sources list problems. So I'll go another round next opportunity. After seeing the GUI this looks to pretty much equate the best I could expect out of a Pogoplug. FWIW, last night JoeyZilla tried registering at FileZilla forums to ask if it's possible to get a Web UI to talk to FileZilla runby JoeyPogoPlugE02 - Off-Topic
Anything you'd consider for an E02 running Debian, headless with web UI? I love Transmission's ability to keep running after the Web UI disconnects, and sometimes there's a need to upload a Blu-Ray worth of content. For FTP a person would want explicit SSL/TLS. But it's fairly crickets out there when it comes to FTP questions. I could imagine a lot of reasons why, forby JoeyPogoPlugE02 - Off-Topic

Some of the best days of my life (so far). One of the lab assistants was a nice, shy woman who confided to me she had a "crush" on another assistant.

Pogoplug/Linux would seem the PERFECT server for a family calender - births and deaths alone something family members can access and see the birthdays and last days of our loved ones..

Long story short, I might be wise to wait for the wires. Last night/early today I was exploring around the OpenWRT Pogoplug, and while that doesn't boot the Debian hard drive either (as-is), there might be provisions within the GUI to kick that in, or alternately use Samba to share HD storage running from OpenWRT.

Afterthought: I really like making partition backups as images. But occasionally find a working install that i forgot what was done. Here's what happened: It's Ext3, 16GB on 3.5" SATA II... has another partition like 125 GB It didn't let either E02 or v3 Pogoplug boot it either SATA or SATA > USB adapter, nor jump start with one of the regular USB primary's.by JoeyPogoPlugE02 - Off-Topic
Success! Not fully but partial. I went with a USB 2.0 G-Connect external hard drive. Using the command fdisk -l showed the hard drive plugged into /dev/sdb1 then I swapped my smb.conf with Bodhi's and added: guest ok = yes comment = Cloud 9! writeable = yes path = /mnt/sdb1 At first this drove me mad because path was set to path = /dev/sbd1 and it took a consultation aby JoeyPogoPlugE02 - Off-Topic
In my situation using Pogplug/Debian for Samba and torrents, and once a week using RDP to get the XFCE usable, installing BleachBit was the answer.

vtx it should be the same one you ssh'd unless your router re-leased it. My router allows for DHCP address reservation, enter mac address and your'e good to go. That helps a lot.
