Hello Mauro,

I have some very old notes I can share with You. I have no idea if all
of them are current and some are just thoughts not real guidelines.

>>From my experience:
1. 128MB RAM in my DS110j is way not enough but it works ,
2. You have to disable compression (performance problem),
3. try to install BackupPC in /opt to avoid problems with DSM upgrade,
4. You need to install optware
(http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/HomePage/) for Your's NAS CPU
architecture.

My old notes:

*** BackupPC on Synology ***

- wrapper around BackupPC_Admin for suid

-- cut --
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main() {
    setuid( 1021 ); // user backuppc
    system( "/usr/local/BackupPC/sbin/BackupPC_Admin.pl" );
    return 0;
}
-- cut --

- ping problem, iputils (iputils-s20071127.tar.bz2) and compile, make
ping suid (4755)
- perl 5.10.x from ipkg (RsyncP not working problem), ln -s
/opt/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl
- make: arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ld: Command not found problem: ln -s ld
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ld (in /opt/bin)
- cpan: install Bundle::LWP (libwww)
- cpan: install File::RsyncP

Packaging BackupPC sounds like quite few hours of work but I think it's
possible.

Good luck,
Tom.
