This is my try to make a usable NAS and streaming server out of the Raw Lenny image that Excito supply.

1. Connect to 192.168.0.50 with ssh -l root and password excito.

2. Add virtual eth0 interface, to be safe.

3. Connect to the new ip of bubba-raw.

4. bubba-raw:~# date

will give

Sun Apr 12 12:00:00 UTC 1970

this is totaly wrong and unhealty.

type this to correct the anomaly:

bubba-raw:~# date --set="2011-03-31 22:55"

and that will give:

Thu Mar 31 22:55:00 UTC 2011

next time, this funny will apear

There you go, step 2 allowed you to change IP without dropping the connection and if any error occured you could fix them.

5. Change passwd (to be more secure)

6. apt-get

change to

deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive/debian lenny main

in /etc/apt/sources.list and add

deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive/debian-backports lenny-backports main

and run: apt-get install debian-archive-keyring
