One thing I should mention is that I am connecting to the piratebox from an internet connected
computer over wireless so I am not using [piratebox.lan] but just the
ip address. Otherwise my dns cannot find piratebox.lan and dont want to edit hosts.
I have tried a few things to correct an error when I connect to the AP the
message text is cut and pasted below this note.
The only thing that seems to work for me consistently is to hardcode
the ip address in this file /opt/piratebox/www/index.html
change piratebox.lan to whatever ip address for the ap on line 124
Also added the AP's ip address to both /etc/hosts and /opt/piratebox/conf/hosts
as I noticed I could not ping piratebox.lan by name from a shell.
Error - [piratebox.lan]
The page 'http://piratebox.lan:8080/' couldn't be loaded.
Cannot resolve hostname (piratebox.lan)
Try again
