August 20, 201411 yr Welcome aboard! But if you are having a problem you will have to provide a lot more information, including what version of unRaid you are using, what plugins you are trying to install, what errors you are getting. Your question is the equivalent of "I'm running Windows and can't install the program I want." No one can help you.
August 20, 201411 yr Author the latest version 5. i have tried to install [ Cut and paste from console] and buy plugin folder on root of thumb drive. The console gives me the impression it can't find the download hosts.
August 20, 201411 yr Author Dont know how go folder works. And the syntax / code is anything but my strong point. Have basic Samba share so far. That much was easy.
August 20, 201411 yr Okay, you are still going to need to provide more details, and clarity on your questions. When installing plugins you just need to download the .plg file to a Windows client and move it to your flash drive: \\tower\flash\config\plugins Any .plg file in that directory will get installed on each boot. Alternatively, you can putty into your UnRAID server and run installplg whatever.plg to get it up and running now. I don't know who's plugins you are trying but they should be PhAzE's as his are the most up to date. Also, there is no 'go folder" there is a go file which you need to update for unmenu, but not for plugins. If you are still having issues, please try and provide more details on what exactly is happening and I am sure we can assist in getting you up and running.
August 21, 201411 yr Author Created folder plugins in config folder and dropped in[ http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2902950/unRAID/ps3mediaserver/ps3mediaserver-1.40.0-i486-1.5aj.plg] and on reboot I get wget: unable to resolve host address 'dl.dropbox.com'
August 21, 201411 yr Do you have DNS properly configured on the server? From putty can you ping dl.dropbox.com? When I try from mine I get the following: root@CydStorage:~# ping dl.dropbox.com PING dl-balancer.x.dropbox.com (54.235.91.115) 56(84) bytes of data. I am not getting actual ping results, but I can tell that the address was resolved, which at least lets me know DNS is working. What do you get?
August 21, 201411 yr Likely incorrect DNS settings. If you are on the console it could be a NIC problem, but if you can ping your UnRAID server from somewhere else on your internal network (or are using Putty) then the NIC should be fine - DNS is more likely.
August 21, 201411 yr Author I'am using PCMan X BBS client on a Fedora computer running XFCE. network.cfg use dhcp=no ip 192.168.1.123 subnet 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.1
August 21, 201411 yr If your network.cfg actually says gatewat instead of gateway that would cause the problem
August 21, 201411 yr I'am using PCMan X BBS client on a Fedora computer running XFCE. network.cfg use dhcp=no ip 192.168.1.123 subnet 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.1 Okay, so the nic should be fine. What about the ping tests?
August 21, 201411 yr Author Tried to ping google.com came back as not being able to resolve google.com My network is slow do to high traffic if that makes a difference?
August 21, 201411 yr Tried to ping google.com came back as not being able to resolve google.com My network is slow do to high traffic if that makes a difference? Not resolving is a dns issue. Try pinging 8.8.8.8
August 21, 201411 yr Tried to ping google.com came back as not being able to resolve google.com My network is slow do to high traffic if that makes a difference? Not resolving is a dns issue. Try pinging 8.8.8.8 Definitely. spazmc - You mentioned you had a static address in your network.cfg. What do you have listed as DNS servers? Your network.cfg should look something like this: # Generated settings: USE_DHCP="no" IPADDR="192.168.1.40" NETMASK="255.255.255.0" GATEWAY="192.168.1.1" DHCP_KEEPRESOLV="no" DNS_SERVER1="192.168.1.10" DNS_SERVER2="192.168.1.11" If you don't have internal DNS, you should point DNS to your gateway IP as it is likely routing DNS for you as well.
August 21, 201411 yr Author Changed network.cfg {added DNS Per your example] Rebooted server looks like it found the drop dox to down load files but came back [use-no-check -certificate] ? ping google.com came back good now. thank you. Tried Dynamix plugin ! it worked.

Tried Dynamix plugin ! it worked. Glad to hear you are making progress. The use no-check -certificate I think you need to add to the dropbox lines in the plg you provided which should hopefully fix that.
