I see a NUT configuration in /usr/syno/etc/ups. The DSM configuration UI only lets you set the IP of the NUT server; the UPS name is hardcoded to "ups", the username is hardcoded to "monuser" and password to "secret". I renamed my UPS on my NUT server and added the monuser user, and now the Diskstation logs into upsd as a slave OK.

Now I’m going to show you how to start Debian services when the NAS boots.

Use Debian chroot instead of ipkg (optware) on DSM 5.0. Here is a installation notes of XPEnology on HP N36L

In order to stop the automatic generation of thumbnails in your photos and movies directories, and also stopping your CPU + hard drive to be used non stop for these tasks for days and days...

If you own a Synology NAS device at home, you know its an incredible machine for the money. However, it likely has a small amount of RAM (mine has 256MB) and that poses a problem. I have found that if you are not using many of the programs (Disk Station, iTunes server, File Station, etc…), you can free up a great deal of RAM by disabling unused services. This gives precious RAM back to processes that can actually use it, and frees up CPU power.
