how do you get two machines to show up on one webpage, i have read though every post containg the search term mgpumon and i still cant get it to work, who wants to post a tutorial for the fat guy?

On both rigs under the settings: section in bamt.conf add this:
Code:
settings:
  do_bcast_status: 1
On your 2nd rig run mgpumon instead of gpumon. Modify your mgpumon.conf, make sure there is a 1 next to "screen" and "genhttp" in that file.
Start mgpumon, at a prompt type:
Code:
mgpumon /etc/bamt/mgpumon.conf
go to your browser, type in: (yes, the / at the end is important)
Code:
http://rig_ip_addr/mgpumon/

If this works for you, please donate at http://bamter.org/ to further development.

Where is this documented? I'm asking cause I couldn't find it anywhere.

I believe I found it in: /opt/bamt/examples

Struggling with getting the SMTP function to work.  I'm using jangosmtp and using my gmail email address as the  "To" and "From".  Mother keeps telling me "... we do not relay <[email protected]>".  Anyone using a similar configuration or know whats going on?
My SMTP settings have been working

Do you have two factor authentication enabled on your gmail? If you do you need to create a one time pass phrase (I think that's the term). It's under your settings if you log into gmail.

If you don't have two factor, I dunno how to help Sad

I've scribbled together this script (/etc/bamt/ftest2.sh):

!/bin/bash
FILE0="/live/image/BAMT/CONTROL/ACTIVE/noOCGPU0"
FILE1="/live/image/BAMT/CONTROL/ACTIVE/noOCGPU1"
FILE2="/live/image/BAMT/CONTROL/ACTIVE/noOCGPU2"
FILE3="/live/image/BAMT/CONTROL/ACTIVE/noOCGPU3"

LOGFILE=$"/etc/bamt/restartlog.log"
DATE=$(date +"%F")
TIME=$(date +"%T")

if [ -f $FILE0 ];
then
   echo "File $FILE0 deleted. $DATE $TIME" >> $LOGFILE
   rm $FILE0
   /etc/init.d/mine restart
fi

wich works exactly as I would like it to work when I execute it manually.
However, I would like crontab to run the script every minute, but I just can't seem to get that to happen... I've looked through numerous pages exlpaining the problems with getting crontab to run bash scripts, but no luck so far. My crontab file looks like this:
...
#
# m h  dom mon dow   command
SHELL=/bin/bash
* * * * * /etc/bamt/ftest2.sh

Has anybody got an idea of how I can get crontab to accept my script?
Also, is there a way to only restart the specific GPU that has encountered a problem?

I was never able to get that board to work either. I it was a problem with the boot loader BAMT uses.. The gigabyte boars is just plain broken and I returned mine and got an Asrock

I took the time to look at the compatilibilty page before buying the mobo. You can add this model to the not compatible list: Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3

Next time I will try to buy one from the compatibility list.

I have the exact same problem with the same board.  I tried various USB drives, bios versions, none of them worked.  I tried the regular ubuntu image, it did work.  Like I assume you found, after some google searching I found references to gigabyte boards not working with certain bootable USB file setups and with multiple partitions.  I got an RMA for my board today and packaged it up to be returned...
We followed the same path but I will use Ubuntu or Debian for this board. I got owned by NCIX because this product can only be exchanged for the same...

Can i set in bamt.conf for the rig to stop mining if temp reach 90C for one core ?

If it's really an issue, cgminer has a temp cutoff option to disable a GPU at a given temperature.  PM me or check the massive cgminer thread for usage.

Is it possible to offer an .iso version? I have a problem with my motherboard that I explain here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/new-motherboard-wont-boot-from-usb-76294

I can install and boot any Linux image via UnetBootin. I can use LinuxCoin but I would prefer to use BAMT. The problem with DiskImager is that the MBR get erased and UnetBootin does not remove it.

I will send you my first 6 mined BTC if you can provide me with an iso version that install via Unetbootin.

Thank's!

BAMT cannot run from an ISO, sorry.

It does work.  Update to the latest BIOS, use the failsafe defaults for the board and disable the USB 3.0 ports.
Do you use the same motherboard rev 1.1?

Because I have latest bios: F5. I also disabled USB 3.0 and it doesn't work. The BIOS dont see the flash drive. It dont even see a normal FAT32 partition unless it is formated with HP USB storage format utility.

I can install LinuxCoin with Unetbootin after the drive is formated with HP utility.

I tried everything except for the failsafe default. I will try this and give a comeback.

Where did the mgpumon webpage go in .5c? The command line app works but the webpage doesn't exist.

I don't think there were any changes in mgpumon since 0.5a or perhaps even earlier.   you will need to configure it or run it in web mode as always.

No, bamt can monitor and send alerts but does not take actions based on temps.
You could use an NMS to do things like that, since BAMT does provide data via several mechanisms, or you could script a tool to do that kind of thing pretty easily.
