who is having fun with snaps?
other than upgrading your snap server(s) what other fun do you have with them?
what java apps and such do you run from them? what functions do you enhance them with? or maybe what i am most interested in... managment... snap states :SNMP support for centralized management: what management software do you use for your snaps and what can you do with it? i may look for a copy of open manage at work and play with this soon. |

I've been trying to install a simple Java class all day and am getting nowhere. I guess it would help if I knew something about Java or FreeBSD.
I'm guessing that the SnapOS looks for some kind of signature saying that the class/applet is qualified by Snap. See below from Snap Help: Question: Can I run Java applets on a Snap Server? Answer: You can only run applets qualified for use on Snap Servers. Ok, so two simple questions: 1. Does anyone know where the Java classes/apps are stored on the server? 2. (newbie question-sorry) In debug, after I "cd" to change director, why doesn't it stay changed? Another "ls" just lists the root. Guess I need to buy a Unix book (last time I touched Unix was 1986!) Cheers all, Jase

Ok, if you log in via ftp on administrator you can find it. Folder called java.
Extra applets - need an altered manifest file and also a .ser file. Speak to OzDave, he provided me and Int20h with the information. |

Any chance of some more information on this? Do you know HOW to sign the manifest and .ser files to run Java apps on the Server? Thanks. |

OK, thanks. I've PM'd OzDave.
I'm hoping that it is feasible to sign most Java applications to run on a Snap Server. This would really open the possibilities for me as I plan to use the server as more of a general purpose web/file server as opposed to just a NAS. This would include being able to upload as well as download from the web interface. I'm still working on a decent frontend for the Snap Server (html) and it would be great if anybody else has created a unique homepage that they would be willing to share to hopefully generate some ideas for others. I know from reading previous posts that OzDave has created something unique for his music shares and I wondered if others have done the same? Cheers, R. |

Hmm,
Low memory usage etc java things can be ported, only a few things need to be done. You can use the snap as a web server now i believe, but there aint much functionality |

You say that only a few things need to be done to get java apps ported to the server, but what are these few things? Also, how/where have you seen the SnapOS running as a webserver? I've been searching for weeks for info on this and have come up with nothing. Thanks for all info, R. |
