Daily call not working

Melissa, can you try 'rm /etc/ntpdate_local_ip' and then force a daily call.

Ian, I think we need to resolve your DNS issues in the other thread.

Peter.

[TiVo [p0] ~]# rm /etc/ntpdate_local_ip
rm: remove `/etc/ntpdate_local_ip', overriding mode 0644?
[TiVo [p0] ~]#

But alas, it is still 11hrs behind.

sorry, not thinking.

try:
rw
rm /etc/ntpdate_local_ip
ro

That should get rid of the overriding mode 0644 question.

Peter.

Tried it, but now it can't make the daily call at all, at best it got stuck on 99% downloaded.

I've attached the tclient log if that helps.

I returned it to previous with the below, but it's still 11hrs behind, is there a different IP i can use for the timeserver?

[TiVo [p0] ~]# cat /etc/ntpdate_local_ip
cat: /etc/ntpdate_local_ip: No such file or directory
[TiVo [p0] ~]# rw
File system is now READ/WRITE.
[TiVo [p0] ~]# echo "132.163.4.103" > /etc/ntpdate_local_ip
[TiVo [p0] ~]# ro
File system is now READ ONLY.
[TiVo [p0] ~]# ntpdate -v -b 127.0.0.1

Can you enter the following into a browser (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is your TiVo's IP).

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/mfs/AreaCode

Then click the number under name.

Then click the number next to CityPhoneNum.

What is listed next to 'City'?

Peter.

Melbourne/Hobart

Unzip the attached file, and upload to /var/hack/zoneinfo/Australia/ replacing the existing melbourne file.

Peter.

I'm so sorry to be such a dunce Peter, but how do i upload it?

Download to your PC first, then use an FTP program like smartFTP to transfer from your PC to the /var/hack/zoneinfo/Australia/ directory on your TiVo.

Then unzip melbourne.zip and if successful delete it with rm /var/hack/zoneinfo/Australia/melbourne.zip

Peter.

Thanks for the tip. I uploaded it, but nothing has changed, still 11hrs behind.
