Source: http://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?t=12970

vi /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/homes/dnsomatic/dnsomatic.sh

#!/bin/sh
HOSTNAME="all.dnsomatic.com"
USER="my_dnsomatic_user"
PASS="my_dnsomatic_password"
TMPFILE="/tmp/dnsomatic.oldip"
DATENOW=$(date)
 
IP=$(/sbin/curl -s http://myip.dnsomatic.com)
if [ -r "/tmp/dnsomatic.oldip" ]; then
 OLDIP=`cat /tmp/dnsomatic.oldip`
 if [ "$OLDIP" = "$IP" ]; then
  echo "IPs match; no update"
  exit 0
 else
  RETURN=$(/sbin/curl -s -m 60 -k -u ${USER}:${PASS} https://updates.dnsomatic.com/nic/update?hostname=${HOSTNAME}&myip=$IP&wildcard=NOCHG&mx=NOCHG&backmx=NOCHG)
  echo "Return message of DNS-O-Matic : " $RETURN
  echo $RETURN | grep "good" > /dev/null 2>&1
  if [ "$?" -eq "0" ]; then
   echo $IP > /tmp/dnsomatic.oldip
  else
   echo "" > /tmp/dnsomatic.oldip
  fi
 fi
else
 touch /tmp/dnsomatic.oldip
fi

Then update crontab to run it once an hour:

 vi /etc/config/crontab

0 */1 * * * /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/homes/dnsomatic/dnsomatic.sh >/tmp/dnsomatic.log 2>&1

crontab /etc/config/crontab
/etc/init.d/crond.sh restart

Install a QNAP network HP C5280 printer on Windows 8

Thank you Mr MS for not including the HP C52xx driver into W8.
Download the mostly useless HP software for this printer (362MB!): you will find it easily with Google on the HP website.
Open the HP .exe in WinRAR, and uncompress it.

Goto Panneau de configuration

Then goto Materiel et audio, then "Peripheriques et imprimantes"

Then click on "Ajouter une imprimante"

Then don't let the search finish and click the "L'imprimante que je veux n'est pas repertoriee" link

Enter the name of the QNAP printer:
http://192.168.1.102:631/printers/qnapPR3
then click on "Suivant"

Then select the driver from disk. For this, in HP directory, go into prn_x86 (prn_x64) and select prnhp003.inf
Throw away all the HP bloatware.

Cannot access QNAP administration page

Symptoms: Accessing to the QNAP web administration page (http://192.168.1.102:8080) gives a blank page. Curiously, this does not happen with IE9 or Chrome, but only with Firefox 6 and does not concern access via https.

Solution: This is related to the filtering of web pages by Eset NOD32 v5.
To fix this:

NOD32 Setup | Web access protection | Configure
Web and email | Web access protection | Protocol filtering | Excluded IP addresses
and add address 192.168.1.102
