Wenda is a Synology Diskstation DS218J

Wenda is a NAS, so, I store files on it.

History

  • 2024-11-18 Trying to reset this thing so it works again.

Here is the situation. Wenda has a bwilson account, but I changed something somewhere so bwilson is in /etc/passwd but does not show up in "Users & Groups" in the WUI. I am going to make a copy of everything then do a factory reset. I'd prefer to replace the whole box with a Real Computer but not today. It costs money. Still and all, the drives are now over 4 years old. But hey! They keep working. I wish they did not have moving parts though.

Services

Synology Drive

TimeMachine backups of our Macs.

Photo Station and Moments.

Git (user is gituser and repositories are in /volume1/git/)

Printing

Brother HL-L2320D laser printer is on a USB port and shows up as "usbprinter1". There is no driver for it on the Syno at DSM release 6.2 so Wenda thinks it's some other Brother.

Windows

The way to get printing working on Windows was to install Synology Assistant and then let it locate Wenda and the printer.

I downloaded and installed the Brother drivers first.

Mac

Finds it over Bonjour. Select the printer driver manually.
