Hi, I wish to ftp "within the first seconds of boot" of a fritzbox router in order to check for the hw revision. Idea is, that, since EOL, a flash with openwrt is indicated and could revive the box. I am on leap15, which ftp program would allow this in the most appropriate and easy way? I guess it would be good to switch of the firewall or to use "trusted" zone for the eth when I do it. Did anybody do this in the past and could give some hint?

Now what is left of the problem is to make sure it is not a hardware revision 1. So the box sends an info over FTP when booting up. But only for a few seconds. In order to capture it, you need not only to send a request but to run a re-request until an answer is available. Which will contain the desired information. Once I know the revision, it is not necessary any more do this with ftp because the box is compatible with the openwrt firmware installer. I need to script that and can ftp simply do this? What do I have to set as firewall in Leap? Simply switch it off is best I guess, during operation? thank you. _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Ihre E-Mail-Postf�cher sicher & zentral an einem Ort.
