I've just installed Ubuntu and I'm trying to get Amahi working. So far I've installed Amahi via the terminal and restarted however, the link for HDA doesn't work. Here are the results of the network troublshooter. Also Im new with this type of OS. Thanks in advance.

Step 1: Your HDA IP address is 192.168.1.10
Step 2: Your HDA domain name is shipyard.net
Step 3: Your router IP address is 192.168.1.1
Step 4: Your HDA DNS server is NOT working fine for local hostnames.


michael@hal3000-P45A01:~$ sudo nslookup hda
[sudo] password for michael:

Non-authoritative answer:

Recommend you check the install log for errors. It's located in /root directory. If the install was not clean, you may need to redo it from scratch (OS and Amahi).

By the way I presume you followed the instructions at http://docs.amahi.org and used Ubuntu 12.04.1, not 12.10.

Awesome. I had a feeling that might be the case. It has happened before. We will need to emphasize that on the install guidance.

Ideally we should supply the URL for the correct versions. Unfortunately those move sometimes.
