We are aware that sometimes strange things happen with these two. To flush the DNS cache, see http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Changing_your_DNS_provider . The last entry give you the command. Thanks. I'll give that a try and see what it does..... As for the Hostname issues, I had that happen occasi...

I have several machines with static IPs on my network, plus a couple that use DHCP. I've hit a couple of oddities in Amahai's handling of DHCP/DNS which I really don't understand. First, the machine called box2. This is a desktop machine, using DHCP. For some reason, Amahi has not picked up its host...

Given the damage you experienced, are you sure the ethernet card in the Amahi machine is still fuctional? I've seen instances where the card could be detected, but would not connect to anything since the transiever section was no longer functional.

I've never tried to mount a removable drive as an NFS share, so some of this is theoriecal.... First, the mount command needs a type argument: mount -t nfs 192.xxx.xxx.xx:/media/<sharename> If the nfs utilities are not running, it will also need arguments, the standard one being '-o nolock' to allow...

One alternative would be to use the web-apps proxy app possibly. Anytime you add more layers of complexity to Amahi, it often does not behave as one would like. :( Sorry to be slow - haven't had a chance to get over there for a bit. I've now added the web-apps proxy. Unfortunately, it doesn't help....

Amahi supports one ethernet connection and has no options for NAT that I'm aware of. If Amahi has no support for NAT I see no use of DNS and DHCP, those 2 services are best to be used on the same system that provides the home-networks computers NAT. Amahi's DHCP and DNS servers are mainly a means o...

How can you setup Amahi to be an actual router. At the moment, you can't. Amahi supports one ethernet connection and has no options for NAT that I'm aware of. To do what you want, you would be better looking at something like SME Server (http://wiki.contribs.org/Main_Page) or possibly eBox (http://...

This is very strange.... I installed an Amahi server for a friend (using the express CD). Generally working well, but I do have a couple of strange problems. First, I added a large drive for file storage. Wasn't aware that there was an inbuilt method of adding the drive, so I manually added it. Modi...

I would wonder if all application data would be picked up that way. I've wiped it and will have to reinstall it, but I think WebERP was placing its data in /var, but not with the rest of the hda data. I have a somewhat similar situation - I maintain a number of SME servers for small business. To bac...

It might not be different versions of Samba but rather the CIFS and Fuse packages. You may want to look into that. I guess that is a possibility. I've got several distros on the laptop, so I got a chance to play with several. With Fedora 12, I can use gigalo to mount a share on the hda and access i...
