Dear Community,
I have a bit of a problem with a PtokaX server that I just set up running on lubuntu 15.10. I use the newest version of PtokaX from the website.
Thing is, I am a Windows Admin and have my troubles with Linux. A lack of experiance. I never compiled anything before so this was alot reading HowTos for me ;)
My PtokaX is installed in /srv/PtokaX. I edited the Settings.pxt file in /srv/PtokaX/cfg/Settings.pxt and modified the line
#HubName = TestLAN
But whenever I connect to the Hub, If says <Enter - Hub name here> in the top line of the client's window.
I'd appreciate any tip what I am doing wrong.
Just follow guide from PtokaX Wiki http://wiki.ptokax.org/doku.php?id=guides:unix_basic_setup ;)
Thanks mate, that looks promising. From all my 800 Google searches, why did I not find -m? :boxed:
Nope, I completed the basic setup.
It asked for the hub name, I modified it but a client still reads "Enter - hub name here" in the window top.
Then you provide to PtokaX wrong settings directory. Or PtokaX don't have permission to read or write to settings directory ...
Thanks, I had this idea myself but the PC is in the car right now.
I will check it tomorrow if the settings file has rights to be edited.
Where can I set PtokaX the settings directory? I thought it uses the settings file in it's own cfg subfolder
PtokaX use his root directory when is run as console application. When is run as daemon the use /home/current_user/.PtokaX directory.
