If so, please update please. This help to show that it is simple to setup.

Thanks,

Typically the logs would be on your windows machine since it would be rejecting the login

If you can telnet to you mvp there are a couple of things try. I'm going to add this to the web interface but it is not there yet.

1. telnet to your mvp
2. enter root as user id when prompted.

This should get to your command line from there enter the following. If you have a model H machine this is probably not an issue.

cat /etc/tftp.config

You will see the IP of your gbpvr server. If it is not, you haven't loaded a new dongle with the Hauppauge software of your gbpvr machine. gbpvr doesn't ever set the flash on older machines.

If it is your IP try a manual login as follow. mvpmc currently does not use a password.

mount.cifs //yourip/mvpmc /etc/mvpmc -o username=guest,ro

If this fails record the error and let me know.

If this works enter the following

ls -lt /etc/dongle.config


If it exists your dongle.config is wrong. Please let me know the contents.

Hi Martin,

I tried this and I get the following

Just wondering if everything looks ok

Then the dongle.bin.config file doesn't have guest permissions set properly. Create another file in the mvpmc share now and see it shows up with the ls /etc/mvpmc command.

I`m using vista, I`ve enabled guest accounts and set permissions to share. I`ll delete the folder and try again, is there anything else I should do in vista.

Thanks

sorry martin I miss read your reply, I added a .txt file and did the ls /etc/mvpmc command and it didn`t show up

[mvallevand]

If you right click the properties of the folder and the file on the security tab do you see Guest under the user names. If you do maybe you have a firewall in the way.

Hi Martin,

Yes guest is there and I havent got a firewall turned on at the mo

See pic

Any other ideas,

Thanks

Pete
