Thanks for the prompt replies. The server with koha on it is at school. The school connects through a DSL router and IPCOP. The router has an external internet ip address which is set up with a dyndns.org dynamic dns address. The the internal ip address for the router is 192.168.1.1 The IPCOP external ip address is 192.168.1.2 The IPCOP internal ip address is 192.168.0.1 As an example let me explain how I use port forwarding to access the webmin at school from my computer at home. I type in https://myaddress.dyndns.org:10000 from my browser at home. The router forwards port 10000 to the IPCOP machine. IPCOP forwards port 10000 to the server and the webmin page comes up on my browser so I can log in. When I try the same thing with port 80 and port 8080 I get a message saying "Network Error (tcp_error) A communication error occurred: "Operation timed out" The Web Server may be down, too busy, or experiencing other problems preventing it from responding to requests. You may wish to try again at a later time. For assistance, contact your network support team." When I access it from my laptop at school using the ip address of the server it works fine. Any idea what to do next? 2009/1/17 Doug Dearden <dearden(a)sarsf.org> > > >>> "Krsnendu dasa" <krsnendu108(a)gmail.com> 1/16/2009 3:52:41 PM >>> > Hi there.

I'm not getting the whole picture from what you wrote. Regarding accessing by name instead of ip address, do some reading on DNS. As you can connect to Koha locally your Apache config and Virutalhosts are probably fine, this is more about how your network is set up and how it connects to the internet. Best, Doug

Remote access to web interface

Hi there. I have successfully installed Koha 3 on Hardy Heron. I can access both main and intranet pages from the local area network using the ip address of the server. (If someone can give me some tips how to access it by name rather than number from the lan that would be appreciated.) My difficulty now is accessing the web interfaces from home. I have port forwarding set up and it works fine for webmin forwarding to port 10000. However when I try to forward the ports 80 and 8080, no web page appears. Can anyone suggest where I look for a solution? Perhaps there is a setting in apache that says only allow access from the local network? I am not sure. Perhaps there is something else in Virtualhosts that needs to be changed? Any tips greatly appreciated. Krsnendu dasa

koha barcode labels - too much space between text and barcode
by Jeffrey LePage 16 Jan '09

16 Jan '09

Hello all, I'm trying to print out barcodes labels. The problem is that, whatever I try, I get labels with too much space between the text (title, call number, etc.) and the actual barcode. They all look like this: title call number <blank line> <blank line> <blank line> <barcode> As a result, the text does not fit on our labels. Has anyone run into this problem? We're running Koha 3.0. Alternatively, does anyone know of a way to generate barcodes using a 3rd party tool? -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.

Koha & fixed fields
by Cab Vinton 15 Jan '09

15 Jan '09

>From what I remember, Koha 3.0 does not use any of the information in the Leader. I'm not sure whether this is also true for the MARC 006, 007, & 008 tags/ fields, however. We have some original cataloging to do in-house & I don't want to spend a ton of time getting these fields right if it's not going to add any value to our patrons. Many thanks, Cab Vinton, Director Sanbornton Public Library Sanbornton, NH
