Guest15047 | what is the best way to configure a master backend with a remote front end on a gateway | 01:51 |
---|---|---|
rhpot1991 | Guest15047: what do you mean by gateway? | 02:15 |
Guest15047 | i wanted to set it up over my cablemodem/gateway/router | 02:26 |
rhpot1991 | Guest15047: still confused as to what you are asking | 02:28 |
Shadow__X | are you saying you want to setup a master backend at your house and then be able to access it in your aunts house 2 towns over? | 02:34 |
Guest15047 | that sounds great! could that be done with a vpn? but no, im talking about the cable companys device its a 4 port ethernet/ wireless that claims to have network access. btw im a bit of a newbie to network configuration and have never set one up on linux | 02:45 |
rhpot1991 | Guest15047: so the device is just a router then? | 03:57 |
rhpot1991 | if so then yes you can easily have a frontend and separate backend on it | 03:58 |
rhpot1991 | if you are planning on going over the internet then its a different story and lots of things factor in | 03:58 |
Shadow__X | such as bandwidth and latency | 04:00 |
Guest15047 | where do i find the correct ip address to enable networking or can you suggest a network server to use | 04:01 |
Shadow__X | Guest15047: what do you mean | 04:05 |
Shadow__X | where do you find the ip of the backend? | 04:05 |
Guest15047 | like samba nfs... can you use mythtv with those | 04:06 |
Guest15047 | yes | 04:06 |
Guest15047 | it is a router, but i dont what ip address to use | 04:12 |
Shadow__X | you want to set a static ip for the backend | 04:13 |
Shadow__X | and you can chose that | 04:13 |
Guest15047 | i looked on the myth web site and it said to use 192.168.1 for the master and to add that to the mysql file but when i tried to access the file i was unable, because i did not have root access even though im the only one using the computer | 04:17 |
Guest15047 | sudo didnt work either | 04:19 |
rhpot1991 | Guest15047: you can use whatever IP you want | 04:20 |
rhpot1991 | if you are doing a separate frontend just make sure you do a few things: | 04:21 |
rhpot1991 | 1. in mythtv-setup make sure you use the outwards facing ip (not 127.0.0.1 or localhost) | 04:21 |
rhpot1991 | 2. enable the mysql service in mythbuntu-control-centre | 04:21 |
Shadow__X | Guest15047: i would recommend reading the manual thoroughly and then use mythbuntu for your backend | 04:22 |
Guest15047 | my router has a ping tester i put in 6543 and it claimed to have recieved a response and it reported an ip address should i use that? | 04:26 |
Guest15047 | address | 04:27 |
baggar11 | why does mythmusic have to have "write" access to mp3 files on the network? | 19:19 |
baggar11 | I don't remember that being the case when I wsa running 9.10 and myth 0.22 | 19:20 |
rhpot1991 | baggar11: tagging maybe? | 19:21 |
baggar11 | does it write tagging info now? | 19:21 |
