Certain processes caused the server not to work as I wanted so reboot was necessary

Redesigning Study Room
Today we redesigned the study room which is our control room. The HiFi installation, the PC’s, the Notebook, the Server .. (around 4 UTP connections are in the wall so short cables is the only thing we need).
The server was moved to the livingroom (yeah, we have UTP there as well) on Saturday. Around 16.00h Sunday we moved it back to the study again. No downtime .. the UPS is alive ;-) About 1 or 2 minutes 20 seconds no network activity. It’s patched through a main connection to the main switch so no extra switches are used.
A little geeky but if it’s working, it is working great.
The AroundMyRoom Forum
I got request to create a forum as some people did not like to read all the comments. A forum to discuss the entries about items written in this weblog. Yes, you can think about CFULLHDMA, CH3SNAS, scripts to use on CH3SNAS, NZBGET and many other things.
The forum, no strings attached, is just a personal initiative and not related to any other thing than my personal website. If it’s success I can check how to expand…
Stelling: AH Cola Light is Pepsi Max met wat minder suiker
Zo .. vandaag een blinde drink test moeten doen .. AH Cola Light t.o.v. de Pepsi Max .. prijsverschil .. en dikke 50 eurocent, indien niet meer. Is is natuurlijk ‘belachelijk’ dat een flesje van 1,5 Liter 1.27 euro is.
Uit de koelkast en waarempel basissmaak is hetzelfde.. Enig verschil: de afdronk die is bij de Pepsi Max wat zoeter .
Message to Self: Hardware Info TV
Morgen niet met z’n allen vergeten te kijken naar Hardware Info TV
Schijnt iets interessants te zien te zijn (zelf ook geen idee wat .. )
Ah het was de CFULLHDMA
BetaTesters
Due to a bug in my betatest subscribe plugin installed tonight I am not able to validate any new subscriber. All e-mail addresses are marked bad. And due to changes in the script it does not allow me to downgrade.
So I have to wait for the developer of the nice (it’s worked perfectly before) plugin ..

It’s quick, dirty, no security and I assume you already have installed fun_plug with telnet support

CFULLHDMA: during firmware upgrade I lost power
Oh oh .. you are upgrading your CFULLHDMA and suddenly in your home there is no power anymore ..
Is there a way to fix the CFULLHDMA? There are 2 ways to fix a bricked CFULLHDMA
If you see a Blue Screen, than you have the opportunity to fix the bricked CFULLHDMA by using a USB drive/stick with upgrade.bin. Instruction are displayed on-screen.
If the CFULLHDMA is giving a BLUE SCREEN, the kernel is still running and you can fix your CFULLHDMA. The device is searching for the upgrade and it will upgrade.
There is a small change that this way will work as kernel root files can be damaged too easily when a firmware upgrade fails (due to power failure).
The other way to fix the CFULLHDMA is by using a serial console cable. (I can do that) .. ;-)
More about this using console cable will be explained when needed or requested.
