Hi fraumo
Just a suggestion.
Do you note : before uploading, you must uncrompress the zip file. Then, you have to upload the bin file.

In this case, I think the zip file is corrupted.
=> try to download it again
=> I note also in the past some trouble with zip apply.
So save the zip file to fvdw share and use winrar or 7z.... to unzip it.

Hum
I propose that you make a test. Do this :
create a folder in fvdw (eg test)
copy the bin file in the folder test
open a putty console and do
- Code: Select all
cd /share/1000/fvdw/test
tar -xvjpf xfvdw-sl-12-0-nwsp2-20mar2012.bin
and post us the output

Ok fraumo,
See this post
http://plugout.net/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=340#p2070Download the putty and install it on your PC.
To get a SSH access, if you have not change the default settings, you must use this login : root and pwd : giveit2me
You can find a short help about the putty settins in this site :
http://webmaster.iu.edu/tool_guide_info ... utty.shtml (of course you must change the hostname 'webserve.iu.edu' by the ip address of your NAS.
Note : when you use putty, you are a root user!! :o
So do exactly what I said in my previous post
