you have a telnet connection
dir is not a unix command :p
for a directory listing try ls

You DO know something of Unix/Linux, right? :)

If not, you'll want to Google search for some of the more basic commands, such as ls, clear, and vi.

if ls doesn't work you don't have /busybox
it's either not installed or not in your path

Here are the folders I have on my TiVO:

you need to add /busybox to your path
either with vi
/busybox/vi
or by ftp using a unix friendly txt editor like meta pad, add :/busybox right after tvbin with no space between them to the path line in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit.author

I dont see a 'tvbin' anywhere in my rc.sysinit.author file?

ok you used hackman and it wiped your authorfile out.
no wonder nothing works.
ftp the author file from your tools disk it's in one of the .tgz archives
back to /etc/rc.d

[NeWcS]

What about the permissions of the file?

-Jay

[Gunnyman]

it should be already set but chmod 755 anyway won't hurt anything

Ok, I used hackman and changed the perrmission to read/write uploaded the file and used hackman to change it back to read-only. I can now get bash from telnet and hyper. But now TiVOWebPlus isnt working?

Thanks Gunny for the help thus far!
