Hi to all on the forums.
I am setting up my first Dreambox setup. I have never done work with Dreambox / Linux receivers before, so some help would be grateful.
1) My first question is about peers to a box I setup as a cardserver.
Do I have to have a seperate login for each and every box that would be a peer, and set this into the server box, or do I use just one login and then the others connect to that single setting ?
2) What if I want to be able to control who can access my server for CS, am I able to set who can and who cannot connect ?
3) Am I also able to connect to my peers boxes from a remote location over wan and update any settings to their boxes ?
4) If I have a card with a subscription, and I also want extra channels from services transmitting on the same satellite, can I set up another box to use the card for those channels, and serve it alongside my original box connecting into the router, or does it have to be a seperate server system running also ?
Its all a bit strange to me at the moment. I have a card I want to share with friends and family, and may take some other services, but the technical side of it is being a slow step by step learn processs at the moment.
I am grateful for any help provided.
