Glenn: Thank you for your response.
apt show ow-python <<< does not show anything apt show python-ow <<< returns 3.2p3+dfg1-2 apt show owserver returns info so I assume that owserver is installed. Do I need to uninstall things as per the referred post?? - Start from a fresh system (no other owfs components installed) and install owserver and ow-shell: $ sudo apt install owserver ow-shell - Delete (as root) the hyper-verbose default debian /etc/owfs.conf file and use this minimal config: server: usb = all server: port = 4304 - Enable and start the owserver $ sudo systemctl stop owserver $ sudo systemctl enable owserver $ sudo systemctl start owserver Current {OWFS} interface = u driver = user.owfs [[sensor map]] outTemp = /uncached/28.6E175D040000/temperature Do I just need to change the "u" to localhost:4304 or any other changes need to be made?? Sorry for all of the questions as I said that I design hardware and am familiar with Windows. Linux is a new experience for me. Then again, I might as well spend the time at home learning new things. :) Thanks again.
