Reach apps through IP

Hi,

Is there any way to open Amahi Apps on server through IP instead of domain, or can I turn of domain on server? This because the domain doesn't work.

It is possible I believe, but not easily done, tested or officially supported.
This because the domain doesn't work.
Would be best to diagnose this issue versus applying a work around to the problem.

Did you follow the install guidance for turning off the DHCP/DNS server on your router?

Turning of the DHCP/DNS on the router is out of the question since the server is on a large network and the router is connected to Azure AD to handle logins and the Cisco RV325 uses VLAN for the switches here.

So how do I turn of the domain function, I'm not that newbee to Linux or networks, just to this server software.

You can turn off the DHCP server on the HDA, however there are consequences.

Please see Is DHCP server required.

Sounds like you want to access apps by IP. All apps make use of virtual hosts with Apache. Not sure if anything can be done with that to meet your needs.

Since this is not supported and may not be possible, Amahi may not work well with your network. If you are looking for alternative server software, you might try OpenMediaVault. It does not include web apps like Amahi, however does provide many other capabilities. Access can be done via IP.
