Has any of you used Navi-X btw?

Yep. It's a bit too complicated and anytime you get these not-so-legal streams, things tend to go pear shaped. Half the time streams don't work or the quality is bad or it buffers like crazy. For me these plugins are not great for long term use.

Also, last time I tried this app it logged like crazy and I ended up with massive log files.

Kewl. Part 1 of the equation done.
If I start watching something on my pad using XBMC then switch to my TV, will the one know where the other was left off?
Or if I watch a movie on my pad will it not show in my unwatched list when I use the TV next time?

I have a feeling the TV and Pad won't know about each other due to no server to manage everything?

U will have to run an mysql database in order to do that haven't played around with it yet, so I'm not shure if its gonna be efficient

Will read up about it abit more and then see if i can run it at home
 
This thing still hasn't come on special :(

Doe any place sell them that I can use ebucks?
 
Anyone else's SSH logins to their HP Microservers slow?

I was always curious to know as to why my SSH to my HP Microserver took like 10 seconds, where as my office's SSH logins was almost instantaneous. I always thought it was because the CPU wasn't powerful enough for the RSA/DH SSL handshaking.

I now only added the "UseDNS no" line to my /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and restarted the ssh daemon in Ubuntu 11.10 x64, and now my SSH logins are also lightening fast again! :D

The worst part for me is that it does not make any sense as to why it should be slow, because all my IP addresses have reverse-lookup names on a local DNS server.
 
No speed issues my side, I'm using FreeNAS. My Raspberry Pi is a helluva lot slower.

Can your HPMS server successfully resolve against that DNS server?
 
Geez these 3TB seagates are performing well! 121MB/second from one to the other :)

Previous drives were 60-70MB/s afaik, so this is double the speed!

Strange, if nslookup is working SSH should be happy.

Yeah, it is very odd.
As soon as I enable it again, then it takes a couple of seconds (6 or so) to prompt me for my private key password, after I typed in the root username.
When I disable that DNS thing, then it immediately asks me for my private key password after I said to log in as root!

I now played a bit with my MikroTik's DNS server and that seems to be the issue, because Ubuntu's SSHd queries the hostname without the DNS suffix (even though the /etc/resolv.conf includes the correct suffix), where as Windows' ping command appends the DNS suffix in the query.
So by removing the suffix from the static DNS entry in MikroTik or adding the IP address to the Microserver's /etc/hosts file fix the slow SSH login.

I'm just disabling that "UseDNS" option in SSHd - because then remote logins from other places would be fast too ;)
