I edited the network.config file... DHCP was turned back on. changed it to "no" and I can access the WebGUI again. Thanks for all your help! addendum: the server and RAID controller are too old, and do not recognize 3TB drives(showing 750gb in POST) and no drives are showing in array devices. I think that just stuck a fork in it, it's done. Many thanks to all who replied.

Here is the current diagnostics file from the server tower-diagnostics-20150908-0925.zip

Yes,I have lights on the back of the server, and I just tested the cable with an Ethernet continuity tester and it Passed. Is there something I can run from the server prompt?

OK, so I rebooted the server(from the WebGUI) after registering and added three 3TB drives, now I cannot access the WebGUI again?

How do I mark this thread as solved?

@MrHexen: Thank you! New cable worked! Can now login to WebGUI. I guess I should have checked that, but the cable was the last thing I would have suspected as it had been in use before.

Yes, switched when I first could not connect.

restarted server and tried to ping the ip address from a different workstation: Destination Host unreachable

destination host unreachable when trying to ping 192.168.0.1 from the server prompt, started a continuous ping attempt, had to hard shutdown server to stop it.

First, I am a total newbie to unRAID. I have a little experience with linux, but I am by no means a superuser...I hope somebody here can help me. I downloaded and installed unRAID 6 free trial and got it to boot on an old server. I can login as root on the server. I edited the network.config file to assign a static IP and not use DHCP because it is on an AD domain: # Generated network settings USE_DHCP=no IPADDR=192.168.0.235 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 GATEWAY=192.168.0.1 When I try to access the webgui on another computer on the same network through any web browser I get a connection_timed_ out error. I tried to telnet and no luck there either. All support seems to assume you can get to the webgui, so I cannot use any of those posts or the telnet ones(seems like troubleshooting should maybe start with what to do if you cannot access the server by telnet or webgui). I found a post which told me to type diagnostics at the prompt so I did that. Attached is the tower-diagnostics file. I am trying to repurpose an old server as a storage device for backups. Any help would be greatly appreciated. tower-diagnostics-20150904-0645.zip
