Not too sure about iMac tbh..
If there's an FTP program like Filezilla available then you can control it..
Make sure your ftp port 21 is open...
And your web info port to be able to monitor it!

thanks -
hi again,i carn't get fileziller to work on my mac or windows pc it say connected waiting for authentication,I got idreamx to work sound on my mac so thats good but i would like to be able to do the same on my windows pc, Do you know what i maybe doing wrong,i think its setup the same as idreamx and i have opened port 21 on my router,Is it safe to open port 21.
thanks -
you dont need top open any ports on router buddy if you accessing from inside your local network anyways

i know mate i want to access out side/over the internet 2 miles away from me.
thanks -
so all you should need to do is forward port 21 in your router to the local static ip of your receiver in your home network . I remember reading somewhere though that some programs if you using win7 will let you log into a dream with any password. So would be careful leaving the ftp port open .

yes thats what i'v done mate and it works with idreamx on my mac but not with my windows pc
-
if working on one and not the other check your windows firewall settings on your lappie or pc whichever you using
