Re: Problem with 2.1.2 install
What exactly do you mean by ALIAS? When I go through the initial install
(the bootable Linux portion) it only asks me for an IP and Mask... when I go
through the web interface part, the only thing it asks me for when
configuring the GREEN interface is an IP, Mask, Hostname, and Domain... If I
try to erase the Host or Domain, it makes me put them in... obviously, the
IP and Mask have to be put in... I tried changing to a different IP here,
but it makes no difference... it just stops responding.... Where is this
ALIAS thing? Got a screenshot?
