Had a friend show me the cool idea of Plex. I installed Brig, made a new jail, rebooted, did this:
http://www.forums.nas4free.org/viewtopic.php?f=79&t=4890
Installed ok.. had it all configured and was sharing music with computer via web browser.
couldn't see it from the PS3 or the WesternDigital Live either. so I figured reboot.
I read that unless a jail is working properly you shouldn't auto run, so i figured since it was all working i could do that. I enabled that jail to start automatically, and rebooted.
I can no longer get to log in of NAS and cant ping jail IP. but my SMB shares start and my public webpage I use on it is fine too. I moved the log in to port 8080 long time ago as my webpage is at port 80. but now I am locked out, it just isn't there when I call up the webpage. Please help.
I still have a screen and keyboard but connecting to it via putty doesn't work, and I wouldn't know what to mod anyways.

so http://freenas-ip:8080/ doesn't pull up anything and you can't SSH into it with PuTTY either?
You may have to troubleshoot it through the physical keyboard/screen.

I've never really administered my FreeNAS box physically in front of the computer, so this may not be entirely accurate, but you probably want to choose an option in the menu that gives you the shell terminal.

From there, you will want to check two files, namely /etc/ssh/sshd_config and /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
The "Port" line in /etc/ssh/sshd_config tells you the port that FreeNAS is listening on for SSH connections.
For /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf file, you want to look at a line that looks like "listen 0.0.0.0:xx;" (the "xx" part is the port for the web admin GUI).

Thanks for the help. But it was faster to do a fresh install and import disks. All back up like it should be. Thanks again
