Thank you moredruid, got it working now.

I documented everything I did and made a manual in the wiki.

comments are welcome, or even better modify the wiki.

Q: ummmm......if it's read only then how can anything write to it? i imagine you want it as read only for cetain users so that would be file permissions. A: Actually rsnapshot writes to /media/seagateusb/.private/.snapshots/ this directory is mounted again at /var/hda/files/backup. This way users ca...

I upgraded to amahi 5.1 by reinstalling my server and adding an extra harddisk. Fedora 12 uses Logical volumes, so I created one for the extra harddisk that I mount under /var/hda/files. I also mounted an extra logical volume on my system disk at /var/hda/files/downloads. This way I can also put the...

I did not use samba for printing but internet printing through cups in windows 7

I use for example http://hda:631/printers/psc-1310-series-

Hi cpg,

I am still a linux newbie and do not feel comfortable yet to package amahi apps.

after solving the apache user problem I went on in configuring ajaxplorer as I liked the web interface of it. In trying to configure it for https I followed the instructions on the wiki: A few last notes: I forgot an important step. Do the following command in a terminal yum -y install mod_ssl then ...

there is one last thing. user/groups changes do not take place until the user gets reloaded. did you reboot or at a minimum service httpd restart since you added apache to the users group? I didn't know I had to reboot. :o So I tried again after a reboot and now everything is working! :D Thank you ...

make sure the folder you want to write with phpfile navigator are group writeable. maybe that's it? The folder /var/hda/files/books is group writable by users. I added apache to the group users and even made users the primary group of user apache. (apache was then a member of group users and group ...

one fairly clean solution is to add user apache to the group "users" and giving the shares group write permissions! unfortunately, amahi does not support doing this from the web UI. you have to do it in fedora. With VNC I tried to add a user apache in fedora, but that user already existed...
