I literally *just* heard about that on my commute home. It is most excellent news unless you happen to be on a TWC block without an Apple TV.

(I honestly haven't decided yet if I'm going to pay for it or just keep trading with my parents - they have my Netflix login and I have their HBOGo. So it's not *exactly* stealing...)

Ok. So.

I bought the Drobo that I should have bought back when Drew first recommended it. It's slick. I love it. All the basic stuff is up and running smoothly, including the mac side of automated backup with time machine in its own little shares.

Now I want to automate the pc side of backup, so I am installing Crashplan on the NAS as a headless computer as per these directions: [link]

It is at this point that I need to confess that I am not enough of a geek. All the terminal stuff is getting past me. I have successfully installed dropbear for the ssh. I have installed all the dependencies. I have installed Crashplan on the NAS and on the client computers. I have modified the ui.properties, and the NAS is listening on the appropriate ports.

But I am stuck at the port forwarding. I can't figure out how to do this bit:

ssh -L 4200:localhost:4243 @192.0.2.2

It doesn't find -L. Is it because I'm using dropbear? Do I need to use openSSH? I feel like this is probably a simple thing and I just am a novice at ssh stuff.

Is it a bad sign when my phone starts telling me that my charging cable that plugs into the wall is not a supported device? I was rather hoping to keep the old phone for just music when I upgraded.

That's what happened to me Julie. I bough a new cable, but I have ended up sending the phone into Apple.

Liese - It looks like -L is a flag for openSSH. I don't know if it's available in other implementations of SSH. I'd suggest one of two solutions: (1) install openSSH, or (2) use the PuTTY "option B".

Great, Jon, thanks. I can install openSSH, which is probably what I should have gone with in the first place.

I'm having an Instagram problem: when I try to take a picture it sends me to settings to enable access to my camera - but there is no spot in settings where I can enable access to my camera.

Anyone know what to do?

What kind of phone, sumi?

If an iPhone its under privacy, then camera--there should be a list of apps that have requested access and you can turn that access on or off.

So here's my progress: openSSH totally worked, so I got it installed on the NAS, port forwarding working, everything talking. Only I can't actually log onto the Crashplan software to control it over there, because apparently I still don't have internet connectivity from the Drobo. Which makes sense, because I couldn't get the email notifications up and running either, but had just deferred that problem to deal with later.

I'm thinking maybe I have my default gateway, etc. set up incorrectly. That is to say, I have everything set up as zeros, because I thought that set of routing was all about the LAN, not about getting to the internet. If I change the settings to what my modem uses, then I can't access the drobo through the LAN at all. So I am at another impasse.
