Re: DHCP, OpenVPN cannot be deactivated

Same issue here. I'm able to turn off DHCP through the web console, but on reboot it comes on again. Both watchdog and start at boot time are unchecked.

Re: Persistent tombstone for missing file

That did it. Thanks! I probably caused this when I was playing around trying to find the best location for my recorded TV share, so that it would show up at the top of my video list when using a WD TV Live Plus pointed at AmahiDLNA. There was a lot of renaming and moving of that folder in short orde...

Persistent tombstone for missing file

I'm new to Amahi and Linux in general, but despite the learning curve am loving this product! One small issue I can't figure out how resolve is that Greyhole seems to be hanging on to a link to a non-existent file...probably not a big deal, but I'm anal, so it irritates me to no end. Any ideas are m...

DLNA support for DVR-MS?

Does anyone know if Amahi DLNA supports Microsoft's DVR-MS format? I'm using Windows 7 Media Center to record TV, which it does in the WTV format. I then have a script that converts these WTV files to DVR-MS, using Microsoft's own command-line tool WTVConverter.exe. My ultimate goal is to view these...

Re: No longer have network access to/from HDA

Well...false alarm. :oops: Before I reveal the source of the issue, I must confess that I considered deleting this post, but figured my public embarrassment might be a humorously good lesson in checking the obvious before running to the forums for help. Turns out the cat chewed through the network c...

No longer have network access to/from HDA

All of a sudden today I'm no longer able to reach the HDA from any computer on my network, or get out to the network from the HDA server itself. By "no longer able to reach the HDA" I mean none of the following work anymore, where previously they did: 1) Connect to http://hda from a browse...

Re: New beta release of Greyhole - 0.8.3

Just upgraded, but with a possible hiccup. Things seem to be working fine, but I wonder what the "broken pipe" is related to: [amahibean@Amahi ~]$ rpm -q hda-greyhole hda-greyhole-0.7.5-1.x86_64 [root@Amahi amahibean]# rpm -Uvh http://www.greyhole.net/releases/hda-greyhole-0.8.3-2.`uname -...

Re: Setting up a headless server - a few lessons

Thanks for this writeup. As a fellow n00b migrating over from WHS now that I've given up waiting for Fail, I must join in the kudos. Amahi rocks! Before I go headless, though, a question - what are advantages over leaving the standard UI and just unplugging the keyboard/mouse/monitor? Being complete...

Re: Outbound Network Issue?

I suppose we'd have to chalk that up to me being a stupid user. My intent was only to turn off DHCP, as I want to continue having my router do that; but for some dumb reason I convinced myself i had to turn off the DNS server as well. Not sure I can even begin to recreate the logic on that one. Thou...

Re: Amahi DNLA and WD TV Live Plus

I'm able to get to the samba shares from all of my PCs, which happen to be Windows 7. I just created users via the HDA dashboard that matched the usernames and passwords i use to login to each PC. I'm guessing the same would hold true for Vista. Also, make sure the workgroup name for your HDA, PCs, ...
