telnet

Postby Alek » Wed May 18, 2011 10:55 am

Yesterday I connected to tivo using putty and got a prompt.

Not wanting to go any further I closed it.

Today I get "Connecting To 192.168.1.100...Could not open connection to the host, on port 23:
Connect failed"

What could have changed.

If you are using the altepg3 then you need to switch the telnet deamon over.

The lastest altepg6 is using the older but more compatible telnet deamon and works very well.

to switch try:

rw
cd /sbin
mv tnlited tnlited.bak
cp tnlited.orig tnlited

[you might need a reboot]

Ever one to take the easy route, I re imaged another hdd with the v1 iso.

Now got telnet and tivoweb but no sound.

It's a hitachi hdd could that be the reason.
