I always power cycle. ;) >I'm assuming you are connecting from another box to do this test. >Can you confirm that it is working with the following commands >tftp >>connect yourip 16869 >>get dongle.bin.ver >>get dongle.bin Well, since I only have one Linux box, and MS Windows tftp is limited, here is what I did to test the tftp functionality on the Linux box: 1. Comment out tftp on port 69 in /etc/services. 2. Reboot 3. Confirm that standard tftp on Linux box is broke by trying to tftp from windows and Linux (local) box using "tftp -i 192.168.1.200 get dongle.bin" from the windows box and tftp from the Linux box as you outlined above (changing the port to 69 though). At this point tftp is broke. 4. Run /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /tftpboot -v -l -a 192.168.1.200:69 on the Linux box. 5. Try tftp again from windows box, which now works successfully. Try tftp from Linux box, which works as well. 6. Since the in.tftpd command is already resident in my /etc/rc.local file, running tftp on the Linux box using port 16869 works as well for both files. Is there a flaw in this logic? To be honest my Linux knowledge is somewhat basic. >Then as a minimum you should be able load mvpmc with gbpvr and telnet >to it by replacing the dongle.bin in the gbpvr\Dongle folder assuming >you are running version 98.08 or 98.13. >Also make sure that the Hauppauge software is not running confirm with a >net stop MVPMediaSvc I am running 98.13b, both MVPMedia and MVPMediaSvc are disabled under services, disabled the GB-PVR Recording Service, downloaded the 11/18 dongle build from the daily build section and replaced the gbpvr dongle.bin with it, restarted the GB-PVR Recording Service, fired up GB-PVR MediaMVP Server, fire up MVP, select ok, select windows machine from list, MVP starts up with GB-PVR screen, fire up putty on Linux box to telnet into port 23 of the MVP, and get connection refused. Do I need to telnet using another port other than the standard one? Frank ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
