Remote kiosk config not accessible
Posted: 25 Sep 2015, 18:08
Hello.
I'm new to Porteus Kiosk and it's exactly what we need for our library environment. I've been trying to configure the remote management piece, but it's not sticking. I'm specifying the appropriate IP settings during the imaging process, it finds the remote location appropiately, and reboots after downloading the file on first boot. However, I think it's having trouble with the IP addresses being overwritten (we use static IP addressing for these computers). It gets the URL I put in, but doesn't resolve to that url.
Any help would be appreciated ... I've included a copy of my txt file below:
