I haven't received any traction on the Freenas forums....they aren't as friendly as here either
Here is my post over there...
https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/amazon-echo-ha-bridge-running-in-jail-udp-port-cant-be-found-on-local-network.40512/
But in a nutshell, I created a jail, installed java and got the HA-bridge running.
I can access the web interface on 8080....but Alexa can't find the bridge ( i suspect the UDP ports are blocked somehow)
When I run sockstat -l4 on the jail, I get....
SER COMMAND PID FD PROTO LOCAL ADDRESS FOREIGN ADDRESS
root java 21355 27 tcp4 *:8080 *:*
root java 21355 32 udp4 *:50000 *:*
root java 21355 33 udp4 *:1900 *:*
root syslogd 6673 7 udp4 *:514 *:*
I thought I'd ask here, as it was cocoontech that sent me to the Freenas platform when I decided to finally leave WHS.
My feeling is my Freenas box has lots of horsepower that is not being used, so i'd prefer to have less pieces running and migrate anything I can to a jail...this is my first step and I'm currently stuck.
Also, i have run and can still run the bridge on an Rpi or windows PC on my network, Alexa finds the "bridge" without issue. So I believe it is a Freenas/jail issue that I have just missed ...
Cheers,
Rob
