http://servername/server-resources/

Is this something new in 5.6 and does it work. On the page for new release it says you can go to this on your server to get the winodws XP patches.

This doesn't work on my server.

[rob wellesley]

try \servername_or_IP\server-resources

i.e - windows networking

[Tyrone Miles]

Doesn't work. And it's written in the documentation as: "This patch is made available via the web server, via the URL "http://servername/server-resources/".

Thanks.

[Trampas]

What is the name of your e-smith box? Where it says servername place that name in the url above.

[Tyrone Miles]

Come on I am not a pro but I do know that I must put the host name or IP where it says servername. LOL!

This is an upgrade from 5.5 to 5.6 maybe that is the problem?

[Glenn Tm Pettit]

question are you getting page can not be displayed or a 403 of 404 or 503 or 500 errors in the web Browser

if so try https://server-name/server-resources

[Thor Anthrax]

Same problem here:

403: You don't have permission to access /server-resources/ on this server.

Either with http and https

[Tyrone Miles]

Yea that is the same thing I got Thor.

well using putty, i found the files in:

/home/e-smith/files/server-resources/regedit

win98pwdcache.reg
winxplogon.reg

try if calling the file directly work

http://servername/server-resources/winxplogon.reg

[Tyrone Miles]

I see the files there but I can not access them from a browser.

[Lloyd Keen]

Same here, I'm getting 404's on all combinations.

[Jochen Hoegerl]

I just reviewed the httpd.conf on my sme. the alias entry is set to

/home/e-smith/files/server-resources/

the ownership for dirs down to regedit is 755 root.root
the files are 644 root.root.

so as apache runs as www.www it is allowed to read this

try if calling the file directly work

http://servername/server-resources/regedit/winxplogon.reg

if not try to chown dir /server-resources/ and everything below it
to www.www

jochen

it's 05:11am here, so I'm off to work now

I have sent the following bug report to bugs@e-smith.com

Fault:  Accessing http://servername/server-resources/  results in a 403 browser error with the following error message in httpd error logs
[Mon Jan 27 23:31:55 2003] [error] [client 192.168.2.65] Directory index forbidden by rule: /home/e-smith/files/server-resources/

Resolution:

Modify /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/ 85ServerResourcesAccess  from

# Server resources access configuration


    order deny,allow
    deny from all
{
    $OUT .= "    allow from $localAccess\n";
}


to include Options Indexes

# Server resources access configuration


    Options Indexes
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
{
    $OUT .= "    allow from $localAccess\n";
}


Cheers,
