Synology Package availible

[gnadelwartz]

to install webmin on Synology Disc Station I build a SPK to make it easyer to install on webmin on Synology Disc Station.

See: https://github.com/gnadelwartz/synomin

BTW: When will 1.872 be released? the webmin current package is 1.870

[chris001]

Interesting! Would be also nice to add a script to build a virtualmin SPK.

[gnadelwartz]

in theory this can be done, but lm not shure if virtualmin will run on an embedded system like Synology NAS.

[chris001]

Yes, virtualmin should run fine on Synology NAS, because it's simply perl scripts.

There's a 1.872 devel version available at http://www.webmin.com/devel.html

[gnadelwartz]

@chris001 virtualmin runs only on the major distrubutions because it checks and install also other software.

it may possible to install the perl scripts by hand on synology, but the real work is to check out the needed programs which are not installed and if availible they are nstalled in unusual locations. this was/is also the major work with webmin, figure out configuration and work around not existing software.

when webmin support for synology is mostly done lll have a look at virtualmin.

@swelljoe you have 1.872 of webmin as current in http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/wbm/

can i use your webmin-current.tar.gz as stable download link for my synology install script to have always the latest "stable" dev?

[iliajie]

Kay, it's not always the case. Most of the time, webmin.com repo gets recent versions first.

[gnadelwartz]

yes, but 1.872 is not relaesed and I want to use the latest dev version until synology support has matured

Oh you are rigth: https://download.webmin.com/devel/tarballs/ has also the current-version tarball!
