I am a new mvpmc user, and I have failed yet to boot, despite many tries.
My setup: a linux server at 192.168.1.3, a router at 192.168.1.1, and the
mediaMVP (non-flash version, Rev D3A) which will -- if everything goes well --
get address 192.168.1.4. (There is another computer at 192.168.1.2, but it
plays no role in what follows.) I usually have the router assigning IP
addresses via dhcp. I tried that at first (no luck), and also tried disabling
that (no luck).
I tried to follow the instructions for DHCP, etc.. When I plug in the
mediaMVP, it hangs on the screen "loading application..." In my server's
daemon.log, I have:
Jul 28 07:30:08 dell dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from YYY via eth0
Jul 28 07:30:08 dell dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 192.168.1.4 to YYY via eth0
Jul 28 07:30:08 dell dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 192.168.1.4 from YYY via eth0
Jul 28 07:30:08 dell dhcpd: DHCPACK on YYY via eth0
Using ethereal, I see an ICMP Destination unreachable (port unreachable)
message for 192.168.1.3 -> 192.168.1.4. I also have:
Hauppaug_XXX Intel_YYY ARP 192.168.1.4 is at [mac address]
I don't know if that's relevant. I do not see any other communication from or
to 192.168.1.4.
I attach below my dhcpd.conf. I would be very grateful for any help
troubleshooting this problem.
Thanks,
Hans
