I ran it as you asked and got :
[TiVo [S3] ~]# rw
File system is now READ/WRITE.
[TiVo [S3] ~]# dos2unix /etc/tclient.conf
dos2unix: converting file /etc/tclient.conf to UNIX format ...
dos2unix: problems converting file /etc/tclient.conf
still don't have networking
Open to any suggestions. I hope I don't have to redo the disk :(
Also, I was unable to do the full PPP and thats why I used Hyperterm. I didn't seem to get an incoming on the tivo bootup. My network is setup so that my linksys router will give out 2 DHCP addresses and then sets the IP for the remainder IPs based on what I have setup with them (through Tomato firmware). I am not sure if this caused my PPP to fail. I tried both setting an IP address and then using DHCP on the incoming connection but was unsure whose IP I was dealing with, etc.
Alright, just some background. were you trying ppp to fix the problems or is that what you regularily use? do you have a network card?
can you type:
cat /etc/oztivo.conf
This should show what is in the file now.
Peter.
When I get home I will input what you have written.Quote:

I had purchased a serial cable from Darren back in April 2006 when you helped me get the tivo going (I moved back from the US with a tivo). I only mention PPP as I assumed possibly I could telnet in a "good" version of the conf file and then reboot and move on.
I am unsure whether any assumption I have is valid or not. :confused:
The output was:
TiVo [S3] ~]# cat /etc/oztivo.conf
# OzTiVo menu configuration settings file
# Please do not edit this file
# Run the nic_config_tivo tool to reconfigure
nic=TurboNet
ip=192.168.1.140
netmask=255.255.255.0

mac=00:0B:AD:10:10:10
timing=4
hostname=oztivo
emulator=65.49.60.197
emulatorport=80
[TiVo [S3] ~]#
setting up a PPP connection relies upon oztivo.conf. You cannot have bash (what you are using now) and PPP running on serial at the same time.
Peter.
Your post came through while I was typing mine.
Ok, do you know how to use vi or joe on your TiVo?
Peter.
Sorry for the delay in responding but I was at a bike maintenance class. :oQuote:

It's probably easiest for you to start with the joe editor. Use these instruction as the basics.
I would like you to do the following commands on your TiVo:
cd /etc
rw
mv oztivo.conf oztivo.bad
joe oztivo.conf
This should move the bad file and open the joe editor. Copy the lines below and paste them into joe (right click to paste).
# OzTiVo menu configuration settings file
# Please do not edit this file, unless you know what you are doing.
# it is better to run the nic_config_tivo tool to reconfigure instead.
nic=TurboNet
ip=192.168.1.140
netmask=255.255.255.0
gateway=192.168.1.1
mac=00:0B:AD:10:10:10
timing=16
hostname=oztivo
emulator=65.49.60.197
emulatorport=9090
Then press CTRL+k then x. to save and exit.
Then type reboot to reboot, and see how you go.
Peter.
It worked! Thank you.
I have been able to go into the tivo with tivoweb and Putty.
But I went to tivoweb and asked it to do a daily call and it came back saying
"Failed. No dial-in number chosen.":(
I have not seen that message before. What do I need to edit now?
Also, just as a probably unrelated side note (it might have some bearing), I haven't been receiving any email posts from the oztivo mailing list since this all occurred (inability to download guide data) early last week. I guess, maybe people haven't been posting.........BTW my ISP is Bigpong
