Amahi Linux Home Server
The Amahi Home Server is a Linux home server based on Fedora (and later on Ubuntu). Your machine becomes a "Home Digital Assistant" (HDA) after the installation. It provides a growing set of community packaged apps like an iTunes server, UPnP server, calendar server, a wiki, shared network storage, network backups, a printer server, VPN, and a plug-in architecture built on Ruby on Rails.

Recent releases
- 16 Jun 2009 00:11
Changes: Included are new releases of these applications as one-click installs for the Amahi platform: Logitech's SqueezeCenter, Horde groupware, SugarCRM, phplist, WikkaWiki, vTiger, MyPhpMoney, and TheAddressBook.
- 15 May 2009 21:08
Changes: This release takes the internal search to a new (still beta) level by improving the types of files supported, providing audio files search and video and pictures search. It has a feature to enable password changes for users. There are several smaller stability fixes such as improved checks for validity in usernames that can be created, a fix for external aliases, and a fix for not showing an error when networking is down. Some support for the eGroupware software was added, for later addition as one-click apps.
- 14 May 2009 10:39
Changes: This version fixes a couple of issues in the repos and new installs, namely, the fact that Fedora released repo updates that are broken with the yum version on the release DVD. Due to the cleanups of legacy apps, php-mysql was not installed by default on new installs.
- 06 May 2009 15:21
Changes: This release includes a few fixes for long-standing bugs, such as problems with adding an external network alias, automatic creation of databases per app, and validation of legal user names on the server side. New features include partial merging of webapps into the applications tab in the setup panel, the ability for users to change passwords (and also create a Samba user if it does not exist, in preparation for the release of Fedora 11), and eGroupWare repo release preparations. There are also a few new improvements of the Amahi Application Gallery.
- 25 Apr 2009 08:52
Changes: A long-awaited feature is introduced - HDA search. It allows searching of files in your shares. This is a basic form of the feature, which will be improved significantly in the future to include audio, video, and image search. Also included are simplifications of the interface to show a link to the dashboard in all menus and to bury the wiki and calendar links.

Hi!
We have an alpha of Amahi for Fedora 9 (search the wiki). It is not recommended unless you would like to hack :-)
It may be a few days until it goes to beta, which should work nearly fully.
installation
it states use fedora 8, i am @ present using fedora 9 can i use
that?
Thanks for the Downloads
I could now download binaries (yum repos) and source code (svn). Thank you!
Re: NO DOWNLOAD!
I'm tempted to just say "RTFM" ;-) ...
We would rather not post the direct links
anywhere for the reasons we have mentioned already, since we're starting and don't have mirrors yet.
All you have to do is type http:// at the front,
then the repo (f8.amahi.org is the current one, f7 is the
previous one) and add the name of the directories for the RPMs at the end you can download to your heart's content. This is meant to be used as a yum repo.
For the source code, you can get the rpms directly, or better yet, go to the sourceforge page (http://sourceforge.net/projects/amahi ) and hit the svn repo (http://sourceforge.net/svn/?group_id=197148).
C'mon, send us patches!
Below is an excerpt from our technology page (http://www.amahi.org/support/technology ) (soon to be in a developers area).
Get the Code
We are taking the approach of adding a repo to the GNU/Linux install process to installing Amahi. So, there is no conventional software "download" to install "by hand."
However, if you need to get the code by hand, it's in our repos. NOTE: We do not link to them directly on purpose, because web spiders unnecessarily crawl them, sucking the bandwith which otherwise we'd like to be available for you for a faster install.
The code is in the directories i386, x86_64 and noarch of the repo. The current repo can be accessed at f8.amahi.org. The source code is in the svn SourceForge repo.
