I’ve just added a new guide to the wiki which details the procedure of setting up User-based Samba access on the Asus WL-HDD. There is also a sub-guide on how to move your samba installation.
Furthermore, I have restructured the Package Guides page into a nice table with categories to choose from.
All in all, the Wiki has just got better so go and check it out!

I recently helped a friend set up a mailing label ‘Mail Merge’ in Microsoft Word and thought I would document the process so that someone else may benefit (how charitable of me!).
This allows you to merge contact details such as name and address from a data source (such as Microsoft Outlook, a database or Excel).
This particular guide helps you to make labels for sticking on envelopes.

Having spent a long time writing my guides on the Asus WL-HDD, I have finally made the wiki public.
I have spent a long time getting used to the wiki software and have since made my guides a lot easier to browse navigation wise. I will keep adding new guides and hopefully, others may also contribute. I am really pleased with my creation, if you get time, please check it out.

If you don’t know what the WL-HDD is, it is a small Network-attached storage device that runs an embedded version of busybox linux. However, with an unofficial firmware installed on it, you can ‘unsling’ the linux OS and install other packages on it and configure it to do whatever you want.
For example, mine currently has SSH access, runs an FTP server (with username and password), runs User-based Samba and also updates a Dynamic DNS name server. However, it can be used for lots of other things.

Hope this might be useful to somebody out there!
