First Server
Posted: Sun May 15, 2016 6:29 pm
Hello, this is my first server and I am trying to learn how to use it for the first time. I have successfully installed Fedora and the Amahi client onto the computer I will be using for my server.
Some information about my network:
I have internet from google and have the modem and router combo directly wired into the server PC through LAN. The other computers on the network are also hardwired through a switch that connects most of the rooms of the house with Ethernet cables through the walls.
The problem I am having now, is that I can only get to the server in the browser by copying and pasting the servers IP address into my browser. Trying to use http://hda does not work. Well it worked once or twice, but fails to do so anymore. I think is is related to my issue.
The other issue I am having is that when I try to access my folders in my Windows PC folder browser, it says it cannot find \\hda.
I have been trying to follow the wiki on how to access it on my PC because I wanted to see if I could store some pictures on the server as a test. However, I am totally new to this and cannot seem to figure it out. The wiki makes it sound really easy so I am sure I might have an issue with my network. Any help would be very appreciated. Thank you.
