RE: TiVo

Sorry to be a pain Doogie but it fails at the first hurdle...

I have made the directories already but I can not get the file into it.

Where you say below on the ftp yourtivoipaddresshere {ok}, that bit is fine
but then the window is "closed by remote host"...

Just out of interest, I did try last night the put command but it did not
know where the tivoweb-tcl-1.9.4.tar.gz file is. And that is as far as I
get.

Not unless you're running a web server

ok here goes... complete instructions from c:\tivoweb-tcl-1.9.4.tar.gz 
to TivoWeb running. Apologies if it seems insulting, but I've put down 
every key press, just to save any ambiguity... :)

Hopefully this should get you sorted

You want to put the file in var/hack I don't know wether you've created
this directory so assuming you haven't

****Creating /var/hack****

Start/Run
telnet yourtivoipaddresshere [OK]
mkdir /var/hack [Enter]

You can close this window now if you like, or save it for unpacking
later

****FTP Instructions****

Start/Run
ftp yourtivoipaddresshere [OK]
[Enter] [Enter]
bin  [Enter]
lcd c:\  [Enter]
cd /var/hack  [Enter]
put tivoweb-tcl-1.9.4.tar.gz [Enter]

Close the FTP window

****Unpacking TivoWeb****

Start/Run
telnet yourtivoipaddresshere [OK]
cd /var/hack [Enter]
gzip -d tivoweb-tcl-1.9.4.tar.gz [Enter]
cpio -H tar -i < tivoweb-tcl-1.9.4.tar [Enter]

****Running TivoWeb (console mode)****
/var/hack/tivoweb-tcl/tivoweb console [Enter]

Messages will be displayed ending with Accepting Connections. DO NOT 
CLOSE THE TELNET WINDOW! You can now point your browser to your Tivo 
address and you should see the TivoWeb interface.

Once you've confirmed that it's running ok, select Restart then Quit 
>from
/var/hack/tivoweb-tcl/tivoweb [Enter]

into a telnet session. This will allow you to run TivoWeb and close the
telnet window, otherwise it may crash if it tries to write something to
the console but the console session has ended.
