I'd like to move on now to being able to access the web pvr from this machine but all my connections time out. I've tried setting the IP address in the Ubuntu config file to the localhost address, and even 0.0.0.0 but all my connections from here time out.
Do I need to make any changes to the firewall to allow the connection through? If so, what do I specify? I've looked at lots of the get_iplayer forums and nobody ever seems to mention firewall rules so I'm not getting too far forward.
I take back what I said about not getting too far forward!
A reboot solved it once I'd added a firewall rule for port 1935/tcp and set the thing to listen on the IP address of the box.
I just need to add the web pvr to automatically run at machine start and that's it, job done. On to the owncloud stuff now.
