SSH Tunnel for external access...?

Post by jowie »

Hi there,

I'm not (yet) a Bubba owner but am very interested in getting one. However I have a few questions:

1. Is Bubba controlled entirely through web access?

2. Can an SSH tunnel be set up on Bubba so I can access its controls remotely?

3. Does the web interface allow for controlling, adding and removing torrents?

4. Can the drive on Bubba be connected to through networks via both Mac and PC?

Thanks! :D

Hi,

The Bubba server is a complete debian linux system. It can be fully controlled through SSH, and allows for some usage and controlling (such as adding/removing torrent downloads) through the default web interface. You can easily add / remove services as you wish with a ssh-client though...

If you use Mac, PC, Amiga, Alpha doesn't matter, you'll need a browser and/or a ssh-client. Bubba server is connected directly to your LAN with RJ-45 TP-cable.

Buy one! Especially now when you get 128 mb ram instead of 64. :P

That's great. I'm assuming ALL torrent control is through the web interface though, isn't it? If not, how else?

How do I transfer files to and from it? What protocol, FTP? AFP? SMB?

Is that a new addition? What does 128MB RAM give me over 64MB though?

I'd love to buy one now but I can't afford it :cry: but I will most certainly save up for one if it serves all my needs :)

Hi Joe,

FTP and SMB out of the box. NFS took me 3 minutes to set up. Never tried AFP, I'm not a Mac user..

Cheers
