Zonediver Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) What i need is a Sleep-Button and that this App is working from outside my Network - like Teamviewer. Do i need to install a plugin on my unRAID-Server? Is there a "Test-Version" available? Edited June 6, 2017 by Zonediver Quote Link to comment

I remember talking to jbodriguez about the remote access issue when he first developed the plugin and that was what we both thought. Quote Link to comment
Zonediver Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) Because it costs money - i need this some times when i am outside but not so often to spend money on a VPN-Service. If this App cant reach the server from outside the network, then its useless for me. Edited June 6, 2017 by Zonediver Quote Link to comment

wgstarks Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Free license for 2 concurrent users so if access was very random you could probably have quite a few more. Quote Link to comment
Zonediver Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 And which Vendor has this free Accounts? Quote Link to comment
wgstarks Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 1 minute ago, Zonediver said: And which Vendor has this free Accounts? OpenVPN-Access Server is a server so there is no need for paying for a commercial server. Once the docker is configured you would download authorization certificates to whatever client machines you want to use to connect back to your local network. I guess you could say you are the vendor. Quote Link to comment
Zonediver Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) So that mean: I install OpenVPN as Docker on unRAID and as App on my Android phone and thats it? How will this pass my Router? Portforwarding maby? Or shall OpenVPN run directly on the router? Edited June 6, 2017 by Zonediver Quote Link to comment

Port forwarding probably, although I understand it can be run directly on some routers. @gridrunner has made a very good video. You can also checkout the OpenVPN-AS support thread.

jbrodriguez Posted June 7, 2017 Author Share Posted June 7, 2017 To supplement what CHBMB and wgstarks mentioned, the ControlR FAQ provides some additional information. Quote Link to comment
olympia Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Just installed and all, but dockers and VMs work. For those I get "No dockers are installed or they are currently unavailable". Would you have any hint where to look? Quote Link to comment

peter_sm Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 I'm on 6.4 and force to use https for unraid. And I can't longer connect with this app. //Peter Quote Link to comment
jbrodriguez Posted July 5, 2017 Author Share Posted July 5, 2017 HI peter_sm, 6.4.x is still on the release candidate phase, and although I have a development version of the app supporting https, I've held on releasing it because there may still be some changes. In any case, I will try to publish a version with "preliminary" support by the end of next week. But, the error you posted is related to the ControlR plugin. That should be working Would you mind posting the output of $ cd /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/controlr $ killall controlr $ ./controlr on the plugin support thread ? Quote Link to comment

jbrodriguez Posted July 19, 2017 Author Share Posted July 19, 2017 v2.8.1 is now available ! 2.8.1 Initial support for 6.4.x's https. It's still subject to pending changes in unRAID. Additionally: - Updated screen navigation component - General improvements and other bug fixes This should enable you to connect to an unRAID server via https, provided the server is configured to do so. Also install the latest ControlR plugin for full compatibility. Let me know of any issues. Quote Link to comment
jbrodriguez Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 v2.8.2 is available as an over-the-air (OTA) release ! 2.8.2 - Restore log functionality This fixes a minor bug that was preventing logs to be shown. 1 Quote Link to comment

kingpin Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 i have been playing with this for a couple weeks now and just can not get it to link to either of my servers. i have upped the timeout function to 25000ms. i have created other users to see if that is the issue. any advice?

jbrodriguez Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 Hi, a couple of things to check - Make sure you're connecting to the unRAID webGUI's port (most likely 80) - Make sure you can access the webGUI from a browser on your device - Make sure you don't have an adblocker/firewall rule/etc preventing access to the webGUI from your device If none of the above applies, let me know to further troubleshoot.
