  • Thats what I did every other time, as I couldn't ftp to the box from my main pc. Prolly means ive been doing something I didn't need to everytime, well thats another lesson learnt.


    Going to do it from scratch then see if I can do it the correct (or at least better/more correct) way.

  • Ok, so ive gone back to Ubuntu, installed the server edition and I am able to access my server using an ssh session in putty.


    How would I then enable access to the box via tp, or simular to be able to run the script to autoinstall CCCam and OScam?
