Alas I dont know linux networking that well.. well not the iptables firewall bits.. but from reading the above it sounds like either iptables isnt installed properly , perhaps they used a custom solution? or something else.. sorry cant help anymore...<br />Angelohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15167191474404605239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2930566048066015286.post-31837744874965762272012-12-18T01:25:12.069-08:002012-12-18T01:25:12.069-08:00Hi Angelo
Thanks very much for the excellent piec...Hi Angelo<br /><br />Thanks very much for the excellent piece on getting Twonky up and running on the meebox. <br />I've been wondering if I can use the installed mysql server from a remote client (on a respberry pi). Performance doesn't need to be great so it'll probably be good enough.<br />I've added the bind address to the my.cnf file, but when I try to use iptables to enable port access I get an error:<br /><br />meebox> /sbin/iptables -I INPUT -i eth0 -s 192.168.1.0/24 -p tcp --destination-port 3306 -j ACCEPT<br />iptables v1.3.4: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)<br />Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.<br /><br />I'm already at the limit of my knowledge and wondering if I should be pursuing this further. Do you have any ideas on where to go on this one.

My main beef with the Meebox is performance , or p**s poor performance.<br />Anyway..<br /><br />I checked out mod_mono and YES technically it could work on the meebox, with the current distro of apache, BUT you'd need to find a LittleEndian GLib.3.x build of it.. I looked (places like http://www.mono-project.com/Mono:ARM) and I think it exists but maybe only for the nokia Arm7 devices.. <br /><br />No idea if it would work or not..

I know this works, as when i telnet in and run it the daemon starts just fine.<br />What wrong with this???<br />Regards<br />GaryBertieukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07888327941521937982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2930566048066015286.post-64855836085082940132012-04-16T13:14:23.690-07:002012-04-16T13:14:23.690-07:00Stunning thanks for all the information.

I'm interested in adding Mod_mono (http://mono-project.com/Mod_mono) to allow asp.net applications to run, but being a Microsoft developer... I have no idea where to start?! Is this feasible? Would apache support it? <br /><br />Any assistance would be great!<br /><br />Many thanks and keep up the good workAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
