Enhancement request: add link in index.html to mythweb

[MarcRandolph]

At least two of us think that the default /var/www/mythweb/index.html could be changed to be more helpful.

I wonder if index.html could be changed in future editions of mythbuntu to something like the suggestion contained in the discussion found here:

-------------------------- Forum post suggests index.html have something like the following:

 The apache2 html server is running!
 To access mythweb, try http://192.168.1.106/mythweb/mythweb.php

--------------------------
This sounds like a good idea to me. It could be argued that some users might want to hide the fact that mythweb is installed, but if that is the case, they could simply edit index.html. He has bigger problems than hiding mythweb if this is exposed to the internet (do we want to warn him about this here as well?)
My only other comment is that we could add one more line to let the user quickly know where that file is located.

 This page is generated from /var/www/mythweb/index.html

Yeah I totally agree with this one. It's a matter of figuring out a good way to do it and cover the case that the user already modified their index.html.

This bug was fixed in the package mythplugins - 0.21.0+fixes19556-0ubuntu7

  * debian/mythweb.postinst:
    - If we are using the default index.html, then make it redirect to
      mythweb/ instead. This is OK now because as of last alpha we
      started to enforce a password. (LP: #260126)
