A little help setting up please

You need a ethernet crossover cable to connect the box to your pc and a ftp program like flashfxp
chmod 755 is changing the attributes of the file you just right click on it after you have sent it to the box and choose chmod/attributes the change the value to 755.

oki dokes. I've started up flashfxp but am having trouble connecting to the box. I've hit the lightning bolt and entered in my ip 192.168.0.1, and im not sure what to write for username and password. Does anyone know what they are?

Hey peeps. I've opened up the directories for the dbox. I'm assuming that you send the 'magic files' into the keys directory?

There are 3 magic folders titled 'lib', 'var bin' and 'var key'. A message in the var key folder reeds 'dont chmod 775 these'. So what ive done so far is transfered all 3 folders over but not chmod the var key folder. Ive then turned off the box and restarted but still I cant get those channels. Anyone know what im doing wrong? plz help

ok, ive just figured out you send the files to the directory (duhh). So ive put var keys in the keys folder and var bin in the bin folder etc. But when i restart the dbox i still cant get the channels? Anyone know what im doing wrong?

[Fergal]

You transfer the files that are inside the folders
so the files on your pc in var/k*ys go into var/k*ys
the files in var/bin/emu goes into var/bin/emu
then right click on the evocamd and mgcamd and choose chmod and change the value to 755 then reboot the box

[camedia2061]

Have tried this but still no change. I wanna cry

[Fergal]

Leave it on a blank channel for 5 mins and see what happens

[camedia2061]

In future, I'd recommend using the Real Magic files from here:

h**tp://www.mercs.us/Tools.htm

The version you've used puts the cam(s) in the wrong folder, where the C11 Softcam Munu will not find them- and probably has about 5 dozen files for /var/keys - when only 5 are needed.

In fact, just start again, and do the job properly this time. Using 'real magic' - you'd need to be pissed or stupid or both, to get it wrong!!

Cheers- AL

Eh! you pisshed Al thats what he did use i gave him the link in post 14 and the box is working.

[PaphosAL]

You guessed correctly, Fergal, LOL! I misread him, and thought he was using the 'other' magic, full of crap, and not up to date. You know the one I mean...

Glad it's all resolved, anyway! Cheers- AL
