If your server isn't decoding channels, check the live log via the OScam WebUI ( http://your-server-ip:8888 ). Look for these common indicator phrases:
: Handles main system settings, global parameters, network protocols, and the Web Interface (WebIF).
Crucial for beginners. It allows you to configure everything via a browser at http://[IP-of-box]:8888 .

: The main configuration file. It dictates global server behaviors, defines the Web interface (WebIF), and activates communication protocols.
: Forces the server to prioritize physical smartcards in local slots over remote network shares, minimizing channel-switching delays. Look for these common indicator phrases: : Handles

: Update your compiled OScam binaries regularly to benefit from security patches, cryptographic speed improvements, and modern hardware optimizations.

This is the "brain" of the server. It handles the Web Interface (WebIf) and the protocols used to talk to clients.
