Since the chumby 8 is Faster and 128meg ram would it be better to use as a web server .can you use the procedure that is the wiki to use the chumby 8 as a web server .Will you be Be able to use a usb ethernet to get faster file transfers?
I *think* the executables provided on the wiki for lighttpd will work. Give the prebuilt dongle a try.
Duane, is there another DNS service I can use like they show in the wiki? Freedoms doesn't exist anymore. Thanks
I didn't add that section to the wiki - however, with a quick Google, it looks like dnsdynamic.org offers a very similar system.
Thanks Duane. I'll let you know.
Duane, finally got around to testing this.
Server is online @ http://plumst.serverpit.com/
hey guys its been so long since I've done any of this..
is there a way to upload files over sshd or ftp? or do I need to pull the usb and update like that?
Use scp to copy files to your device, i.e. "scp /path/to/file root@ip.of.chum.by:/path/on/chumby".
You'll need sshd running on the device.
hey Duane,
Quick question. I know you can check the memory stats with the built in webserver with "http://ip.of.the.chumby/cgi-bin/memstats"
is there a way to integrate this into the new webserver?
can you use scp on windows?
I guess you could copy /www/cgi-bin/memstats into your cgi directory.
can you use scp on windows?
Yes you can. Look up WinSCP.

Thanks that works GREAT!
memstats copy didn't work. it must need something from the builtin server
Hmmmm, it's just a shell script that outputs HTML. You should be able to configure the server to execute it. Make sure you marked the copy as executable. See if you can execute it directly (i.e. /path/to/cgi/memstats)

Just forget it. i just did it on my chumby one snd it doesn't display what I wanted.
Thought it would display how much free ram there was maybe the cpu usage and maybe the space remaining...
Thanks for the help guys!
