The biggest issue you'll have is "does this USB-Ethernet device work under Linux?" Go here (http://www.linux-usb.org/devices.html#net) and look at their list: obviously, listed devices as "working" and "main kernel source" are the most likely to work. Oh, and one disadvantage to using USB: since the XBox is limited to USB 1.1, you won't get anywhere near the speed of a 100Mbps Ethernet network or even a 10Mbps network.

It has become common for a typical household using broadband to utilize a router or some type of firewall. If you're behind a router or other type of firewall you can still use Morpheus, but you will not be able to download from other firewalled users and connecting can be slower if you are not properly configured.

Morpheus will work through your hardware and software firewalls, although it varies from firewall to firewall set up. If you are using a software firewall such as McAfee or Zone Alarm be sure Morpheus has access to connect to the internet and act as a server. If you use a router (common for DSL and cable connections) and want to increase your download and connect success, it's highly recommended you forward the port Morpheus is using to your local computer.

For most routers, yes. The service is designed to work behind a NAT router and you should be able to just plug in and go, assuming your router is handling DHCP services. In addition, there is an excellent network connection troubleshooter built into the XBL front-end. You can configure your Xbox with a static IP if required, you can manually set various network settings, and you can even have the Xbox spoof a certain MAC address if required by your ISP.

If you have problems connecting to Internet games when you try to play from behind a router/firewall, you have to open the following ports: Blitzkrieg Ports 8889 and 9089 Gamespy Ports 6667 (IRC) 80 (HTTP) 3783 (Voice Chat Port) 27900 (Master Server UDP Heartbeat) 28900 (Master Server List Request) 29900 (GP Connection Manager) 29901 (GP Search Manager) 13139 (Custom UDP Pings) 6500 (incoming, pre-configured port can be changed in the file "svc.cfg" in the command line "roomqueryport=

Nvidia provides drivers for Linux (binary only). Are these drivers compatible with Xbox Linux? The Xbox is basically a Intel PC and Nvidia provides the graphics card. These drivers are for Intel X86 processors with Nvidia video cards running Linux. If this is compatible, it should solve the 3D acceleration issue with Xbox Linux. Unfortunately not.

You do not need an extra router, because the firewall has got a built in router function. This will make an additional router unnecessary.

long as you don't partition the whole disk (i.e. you must keep the xbox dashboard). You can also run linux emulators or course.

This depends on the definition of firewall. Some writers (e.g., Gene Spafford in _Practical UNIX Security_) define a firewall as a host on which an ''inside'' and/or an ''outside'' application process run, with application-level code linking the two. For example, a firewall might provide FTP access to the outside world, but it would not also provide direct FTP service to the inside world.

If due to the security policy accepted in your corporate network or by your host provider you cannot connect to your MySQL server directly through TCP/IP (for example a firewall prevents this), you can use SSH or HTTP tunneling feature of SQL Manager to fulfill your task.

Yes, you can use a "Broadband" router in your location. There many versions available at most electronic stores, from wireless versions to hard-wired.

You do not need to configure your firewall, proxy, or NAT router to use either operator client. Both operator clients only use outbound HTTP connections to the ChatStat Server which allows both operator clients to work with zero configuration behind firewalls, proxies, and NAT routers.

Think of eBLVD as you think of accessing secure 128-bit SSL web pages. A sophisticated hacker could intercept your web session but would only see encrypted data. The hacker would need to decode each individual stream of data and reassemble it to be able to view the data. This is virtually impossible.

If due to the security policy accepted in your corporate network or by your host provider you cannot connect to your PostgreSQL server directly through TCP/IP (for example a firewall prevents this), you can use SSH or HTTP tunneling feature of SQL Manager to fulfill your task.

Most routers have so-called NAT-functionality. It will let you access a remote server on any port, as long as the initial request ... You must have at least SELECT privilege (as a global privilege or a SCHEMA/COLUMN privilege, to be able to see any data.More information on ... phpMyAdmin is running on the server itself so when connecting to MySQL with phpMyAdmin you are NOT connecting from a remote host! With SQLyog ...

You may have an Xbox Live compatible router, but Microsoft may have only approved a certain firmware version for the specific product.

Yes it is just like any other tv - Linux will present the image as 640 x 480 to any tv and then the tv will display it. I am personally using Xebian on a Sony 28" widescreen. gt; I am trying to configure my Xebian 1.1.0 on my XBox as a file server using samba, does anyone has any instruction guide on how can I do that? Thanks. All ya gotta do is edit the config file : ). Try checking www.samba.org - they may have an FAQ, or some "known good" config files you can start with. Good luck.

The XBox has no modem, only an Ethernet jack, so your connectivity options begin there. You'll need to be able to connect to the Internet over Ethernet somehow - either by accessing another PC that shares its Internet connection, or by accessing some kind of router (cable, DSL, dial-up, whatever). i stupidly used an xbox live 2 month trial and it updated my xbox os. is there any way i can downgrade it so i can install linux? i am no longer interested in xbox live.

More than likely, any existing router you already have will not work to connect to the DSL, even if it is a DSL Router or Modem. The DSL industry is still working to agree upon a common, standard communications protocol for DSL equipment. Once you have one of our DSL modems setup, you may be able to connect your own router to it. In doing so, it is possible to serve more computers within your own network.

Yes. Windows XP users who want different features in a firewall may use a hardware firewall or a software firewall from another company. For special offers on antivirus and firewall packages, visit our Security software: Downloads and trials page. No. Running multiple software firewalls is unnecessary for typical home computers, home networking, and small-business networking scenarios.

Yes. You should turn on the Windows XP Internet Connection Firewall for all computers in your home network. This helps prevent the spread of viruses or worms across your network if a computer is infected. A computer on the network could become infected through a separate Internet connection, such as one on a laptop that is used on your home network and on public networks. Or a virus could be introduced to a computer on your network by way of e-mail or software installed from a CD or floppy disk.

If you have questions regarding the compatibility of your router with your new VoIP service you should contact the router manufacturer directly. Some of the most common manufacturers' tech support numbers and web sites are listed below. If you do not see your router manufacturer's information listed above, please refer to their website for further information. Most likely the VoIP device you received is not registered with PhoneOverNet.

Yes, it is okay if KDX Server starts on the internal/private address, this is normal operation. You need to configure your router to map port 10700 to that internal/private address.

When you connect to the internet, you usually use software (web browser, email manager, etc...) that requests information from other servers (to download the contents of a web page, to get the list of messages in your mailbox, etc...). In the case of GigaTribe, your PC becomes the server that answers incoming requests from the members of your network.

Yes, if the firewall and the Router are configured properly. The client application is configured to access the Router using a) its destination host name and, b) the Listener port. The firewall must accept traffic to the Router from the client machine, and must also permit traffic to the client machine from the Router. If such traffic is restricted by the firewall, either the firewall or the Router must be reconfigured as necessary.

The quick answer is that Digital Media Server works great behind a firewall. However, there are some configuration changes you must make in the firewall in order for computers outside the firewall (or your home or office) to "see" the computer running Digital Media Server.
