Use the first registered XO -- which has 'course creator' rights in Moodle. It can create new "normal" accounts, which login with username/password. If you want those accounts to be 'course creators' too, after creating the accounts you can grant them the right from Users->Roles->Sitewide roles (a standard Moodle procedure) hth, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel

Maybe the WIKI need an update that include ... take a break and come back for the cache stuff Working normally..and I am amazed by the level of automation via the XS. Just registered 2 XOs via wireless. Now I need to see how the Moodle could be a mix of external users and XOs registered users.

Thanks for all the advice and help. I went to sleep after setting it without success ... and came back after work at it again - when I ping it works!! Maybe the lesson is to wait for the network stuff to sort things out and be patient? Have set the forwarders commands to my actual DNS and the resolv.conf nameserver points to 172.18.0.1.

Have you tried adding your ISP's DNS server(s) to the
/etc/named-xs.conf file as forwarders?
options {

forwarders { dnsserver1; dnsserver2; };

Yes, I followed the instruction and created a ifcfg-eth0-local and change the /etc/resolv.conf with the original nameserver 172.18.0.1 to 192.168.1.1 It boot and set my ip to 192.168.1.230.

Everything works well with DHCP on eth0. However I want have a fixed ip instead. I followed the instruction Configuring a Static IP address.
