+1 for a Roku. I love mine and the Revision3 app is my preferred way to watch Hak5 - the only bit I hate is the US-centric ad before playing each video. I also watch a lot of Netflix and iPlayer on it - definitely £99 well spent. hfam - Sounds like you need to consolidate TVersity and Subsonic into a plex media server (there is a roku client app) it's a much more elegant solution and that's how I watch my all local media files. It supports all the WAN, LAN, Transcoding features of both the programs you mentioned but in a tidier package.

The modules will download on the pineapple itself and as you said you can ping from ssh the pineapple should be able to download and install modules. On the top of the pineapple webui just go to "pineapple bar" then "list available infusions" from there you can install networkmanager and setup ICS

you are running extremely low on space on rootfs. Have you installed modules or other things to the root file system?

I guess whistlemaster will bring out a fixed version but in the mean time this will fix NetworkManager for use with 2.6.4. Just run this via SSH on the pineapple. sed -i "s/\"\/pineapple\|\"\/www/\"/g;s/'\/www/'/g" /pineapple/modules/networkmanager/networkmanager.php [/CODE] Edit: I should point out only run this once.

The NetworkManager module makes setting up ICS a piece of cake - I'd recommend you install that.

If you haven't already seen there is a lot more information in the first post regarding features etc. The Module is now live in the Pineapple Bar and there is also a 2.6.4 compatible version if you follow the User guidelines here: http://forums.hak5.o...es-please-read/

Tor Manager - V1.0 As I mentioned before this is my first attempt at a module and it's not been an easy ride. The code aspect was a piece of cake - what was not was getting Tor to actually work well on the Pineapple. It turns out that relatively speaking to the Pineapple's resources the Tor client requires huge amounts of memory and storage! This module is USB install only as although the Bar will say it's size is probably under 2MB once Tor caches it's descriptors the final size is around 6MB which is of course too much for the internal flash. When running it also uses lots of RAM so don't expect to run much else at the same time. Originally I was playing around with getting the module to install tor and it's dependencies with opkg but after extensive testing I thought that it would be better to just include a copy of tor so that there would be an indication as to why it needs to be installed on USB storage. The other thinking behind this is it makes the module cleaner to uninstall without leaving anything behind on the system. Features: - Tor Socks Proxy support - Easy editing of SocksPort and SocksListenAddress - "Run on Boot" mode for automatically starting Tor - Bootstrapping progress indicator Questions I know will come up: Why is my socks connection is not loading anything? / Why does Tor take so long to start? It seems that due to the limited RAM Tor takes a VERY long time to initiate a connection to the Tor network. You'll notice particularly the first connection takes upwards of 15minutes. Subsequent connections even after a reboot should be much quicker - even so it can still take 5minutes or so to fully establish a connection. You don't know how many times in development this completely messed around with me making me thing that Tor just wasn't working at all! I have included a progress indicator on the module page so you can check if it's actually attempting to connect or not. Once connected however webpage loading times are not too bad - the Tor network isn't particularly quick anyhow so don't expect massive amounts of throughput. What's this message about my Clock settings? Tor requires that your system clock is set correctly in order to establish connections to nodes. If you continually receive this message then you might have to upgrade to a newer firmware version as there were issues with the clock not updating correctly. I've done most of my testing on 2.6.3 which seems to work well but the current stable (2.5.0) also works. I have also set up the "Run on Boot" mode so it will wait until the clock is set correctly before launching the Tor client - so do expect the module page to say that Tor is not running for the first few minutes after boot even if "Run on Boot" is enabled. Your code sucks! Yes I know in places my code is a bit messy and hacky. It's been a while since I've done any PHP and hence it's not my best - please do however advise me where the module could be optimised and improved. Where is XYZ feature? This was a quick "get me back into PHP" version of the module. I do intend to add some more features in the future - for instance I want to get Transparent Tor working and might play around with Relay configurations. Screenshot:

Hey everyone, I've been a long time viewer of Hak5 however just decided to join the forums :) After watching the last episode I figured I could give some info back to the community. I've been trying to get the most optimal policy routing for various popular video sites and in my research I found that the information is extremely scarce on the internet. My aim was to get just the ip check to go through the proxy, vpn etc and for the actual video to stream through "The Wilderness" as Snubs so rightly put it. So here I give you a list of hosts you will need to route through your proxy for various sites. Note however some of these can be simplified by using wildcards if you are using FoxyProxy / Switchy however I have provided the full hosts so that if you want to do policy routing on a firewall so your entire network will reep the benefits. Hulu (cannot confirm Hulu plus - Ignore region message it's a lie!) : s.hulu.com CBS: release.theplatform.com Netflix (for both the web and api players - however only tested web and roku) : netflix.com moviecontrol.netflix.com signup.netflix.com movies.netflix.com movies1.netflix.com cbp-us.nccp.netflix.com api-us.netflix.com api-global.netflix.com api-netflix.com www.netflix.com www2.netflix.com nccp-nrdp-31.cloud.netflix.net redirects-us.nccp.netflix.com redirects-eu.nccp.netflix.com I believe only the top two are required for the web player but can't remember. The following are just url patterns as I haven't figured out the full hosts for a firewall policy route. ABC: *go.com* *abc.com* FOX: *fox.com* Please feel free to post below any other sites you have hosts for.
