== Utilities ==
 
The NAS is not a full linux box.  It only comes with a limited subset of commands, and some of those are provided by [https://busybox.net BusyBox].  To see the output below, just run the <code>busybox</code> command.
 
<pre>
 
BusyBox v1.01 (2016.05.31-18:24+0000) multi-call binary
 
 
 
Usage: busybox [function] [arguments]...
 
  or: [function] [arguments]...
 
 
 
        BusyBox is a multi-call binary that combines many common Unix
 
        utilities into a single executable.  Most people will create a
 
        link to busybox for each function they wish to use and BusyBox
 
        will act like whatever it was invoked as!
 
 
 
Currently defined functions:

TS-231.jpg

The QNAP NAS TS-231 forms the basis of our local network shares and backup

2x 2TB Western Digital "Red" drives in RAID 1 configuration = 1.8 TB storage

locally on the network, it uses DHCP, with two ethernet nics (dual-homed) Access it via your network share (at 192.168.1.4 or 192.168.1.5) or externally at http://cloud.equality-tech.com

Operating System[edit | edit source]

The QNAP uses an operating system called QTS (based on Linux and GPL) QTS 4.2.1

Administration[edit | edit source]

Under the covers, the QNAP is a Linux box, so if you want to reset someones password, you can just use the passwd command as usual.
