My Neptune Apex web interface compatible DIY reef controller

It uses the 1 wire library and so all temp sensors connect to the same arduino pin. Plenty of info and images on Google like
You can run the example library with more than one connected and open serial monitor, touch one sensor until the reading changes and you know the address for it to put in the code against ambient.

Thank you Guy1980 for your solution. I think of a way to read them. Try.
I used a pre-written one wire address finder. I uploaded the code to my Arduino and ran the code with a single temperature sensor connected each time. The process was simple and took only a couple of minutes including downloading the code. http://www.hacktronics.com/Tutorials/arduino-1-wire-address-finder.html
In the #define MAXTEMP put 0 in it should compile

I found this and wondered if passwords could be managed this way?

ok, so I changed number of temp to 0, i still cant get the webserver to load up, if i run a test sketch i can see the webserver but cant do anything to it as I am just looking at index.htm, if there some step that I am missing to get the webserver to work with this code? i have my RTC and LCD hooked up and working. as its booting it says network down, but the time is correct. Any thoughts?
Have you re checked your providers dns server recently. I got mine from my router and soon realised that it was different after a reboot. I Googled the isp main dns and used that instead which worked for me. Also, check your sd card is working properly with test sketches and make sure the files are in the root of it.
ok so contacted my ISP got the correct DNS, still not able to load the webpage, it does up date the ntp server so I know I am connected to the internet with the controller, I did run a test sketch to confirm the SD card is working and it is. im kind of confused as to why it wont work.
I am assuming that this the correct set up
Code:
#define CONTROLLER_NAME "Foggmans Tide Pool" //change this to your controller name
#define NTPSERVER 206,246,122,250 //pool.ntp.org, used if dns lookup fails
#define LOCAL_IP 192,168,1,15 //change this to a local fixed ip address
#define ROUTER_IP 192,168,1,1 //change this to your router ip address
#define DNS_IP 24,25,5,61 //dns of your internet service provider
#define MAC {0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED}
#define ROUTER_PORT 8081 //usually port 80 for the ip configuration web pageSo everyone is aware.
#define ROUTER_IP 192,168,1,1 //change this to your router ip address
#define ROUTER_PORT 8081 //usually port 80 for the ip configuration web page
Those two lines are for either your modem/router that gets you on the internet. This is what the controller uses to A) access the internet (Router_IP aka Gateway), and B) validate Ethernet is connected and working (Router_Port). Router_Port is the web interface on your modem/router to make changes to it. That device is typically provided by your ISP (unless you bought your own).
So the Controller makes a connection to your Routers IP and Port to validate it has good network connection. You will connect to the controller on the:
#define LOCAL_IP 192,168,1,15 //change this to a local fixed ip address
on port 8000, unless you went thru the code and changed it (most likely not). So the URL will look like http://192.168.1.15:8000 if 192.168.1.15 is your defined Local_IP.
So for Foggman, you may need to fix the 8081 and make it 80 (if thats what your modem/router) uses for its Web Interface. Then after you have uploaded the change, it should fix your issue.
If not let me know, and I can help you out one evening if you want.
