On the headless box ... Remote config Use auto config? * Say Y if not sure * Say N if you are working on a remote or headless machine y) Yes n) No y/n> n For this to work, you will need rclone available on a machine that has a web browser available. Execute the following on your machine: rclone authorize "amazon cloud drive" Then paste the result below: result> Then on your main desktop machine rclone authorize "amazon cloud drive" If your browser doesn't open automatically go to the following link: http://127.0.0.1:53682/auth Log in and authorize rclone for access Waiting for code... Got code Paste the following into your remote machine ---> SECRET_TOKEN <---End paste Those instructions are for a headless box. I will try option two. Was curious what I was doing wrong with the first set of instructions. Thanks.

I am missing something, but I can't figure out how to authorize amazon cloud drive. Following the remote_setup instructions at http://rclone.org/remote_setup/, when I follow these instructions "If your browser doesn't open automatically go to the following link: http://127.0.0.1:53682/auth", I get a "Hmm, we can't reach this page." error. I know I am missing something, but reading through this forum and the instructions, I can't figure it out. My default gateway is 192.168.29.1, not sure if that has anything to do with it. I tried altering the address in the instructions, but nothing has worked. Thanks in advance for your help.

I use an Amazon FireTV running Kodi and never have any problem with any media files. I stayed away from the fire stick as it didn't have an Ethernet port.

Thank you.

I have looked around but haven't found a guide to setting up a mysql server for Kodi on Unraid. Do you happen to have a link to a guide you used to set yours up? I am currently running unraid 6 15b, so I would be using mysql docker container. Thanks.

Thank you for your help.

In reading, I would need to upgrade to the latest 5.0 version, but the readme.txt file directs me to http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/Upgrade_InstructionsInstallation for instructions on how to upgrade to the latest 5.0.x release. However, that website currently has no information available. Thanks.

I had a flood in my basement in the spring of 2013 which ruined my server. I have not had the time/money to rebuild my server until now. My flashdrive currently has unraid 5.0-beta6 on it and I will like to upgrage to the latest beta. After doing some research I am not entirely sure what the proper steps are to upgrade. Thank you in advance for your help.

It will just be a file server. The N40L worked perfectly for our needs in the past, so whatever goes on sale first I think we will be purchasing.

I wanted to say thank you to everyone for all of the information and insight. I am still figuring out what server option I want to go with (HP Proliant N40L or N54L) and hoping one goes on sale soon. WeeboTech, per your advice I have ordered a new parity drive just to be on the “safer” side. Hopefully the rest of the drives are healthy and this will be a less expensive replacement than I initially thought. Thanks again for everyone’s advice.

I recently had a flood in my basement and the stand that I had my server on was knocked over due to the immense amount of water we had in our basement. From what I can tell the server was never fully submerged in water. I was using a HP Proliant N40L for my server and the motherboard did get wet, but I am not sure if the HDD ever had water on them. After removing the HDD and letting them sit outside the server for a day I hooked each drive up to my windows 8 computer and used FTK Imager to pull all the data off the drives. I had no issue doing this and each drive performed without any issues. I never heard any ticking sounds that would leave me to believe the header or platters had been damaged. Before I rebuild my server and buy new drives, is there any way to stress test these drives to see if they still are good? I have five 3tb drives so if I could avoid the cost of replacing the drives I would really like to save the money. With that being said, I do not want to put in drives that are going to fail on me causing me to loose data. Any advice you could offer would be appreciated. Thanks.
