Got it !!!!!!

Many thanks

Many thanks for your prompt replies

@ Sandman ......There is not such a file in the directory. I believe that oscam.user.tmp is a temporary file created by oscam, during processing a user's rights.

@ Ten Below ..... My friend, I checked and I have root access, but not to the directory /usr/local/etc.

Is there a specific command that I could possibly use in order to gain permanent root access, at the above mentioned directory ?

Hi to all,

Initialliy I want to thank shatanar for his thread on building an Ubuntu srvr + Oscam . I replaced the Oscam version with a stable one and everything worked fine. After a reboot I faced a problem with updating not only the users file "Cannot open file "/usr/local/etc/oscam.user.tmp" (errno=13 Permission denied)" but the oscam.server file, as well .

I am getting a message at webif screen "write config error" + at log ""Cannot open file "/usr/local/etc/oscam.server.tmp" (errno=13 Permission denied)""

Due to the fact I am newbie to all this,I would be greatful for a little help.

I understand that means that if you put the static IP of the user you connect?

if the IP is static, it is like a host, the host only thing it does is associate the public IP, then set the hostname = static IP

SOLVED

Many many many many thanks to fongonero and the idea he provided me with!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quote from fogonero

oscam.user you should put in the hostname belonging to that user.

His hostname what do you mean ?

lets say that My dyndns address is work.dyndns.com

The client's hostname is what ?

[account]
user = test
pwd = testpass
description = testaccount
disabled = 0
expdate =
allowedtimeframe =
group = 2
hostname = ?????????????????
uniq = 0

Many thanks for your efforts

Quote from fogonero

your hostname to [account] oscam.user is not correct, logically outside the local network may not enter anyone but you. (Invalid IP)

I have copied-paste the dyndns address in the host field. I just need to know if there is any special syntax to do this.

The "host name" logically, is my dyndns address or not ?

Does anyone knows if I should put any other info at the host name field ?

Quote from Ten Below

Does this happen with all peers or only the one?
It could be that the client & server are in different locations, e.g vps.

Yes with the peers from different location. The dyndns "thing" is working fine when connecting from a local ip address.

What should I check ?

Many thanks carmagedon

Hi mates,

I have setup an oscam server and almost everything is working fine.

But when a client tries to connect to my server through my dyndns address, it is not possible. I get the message (invalid ip address), and he can be online, if I put manually his ip address in the "host" field. (oscam.user)
