Is it possible to input another line on the same VU+ box, as a mate of mine wants to try another server but retain the one he has already?
If you are using CCcam it`s just a matter of adding the C or N line to the CCcam.cfg file.
There is no limit to the amount of servers you can add on a Vu+ box..

Thanks Master G for your reply.
Now then, here's the problem!! hope you a a patient person because I'm totally new to this stuff. I have just about got used to the Technomate box, now I find it easy. But this VU stuff is totally alien.
First of all is when I add lines to a TM box or backup anything or install new firmware, I don't need a PC of any kind but I have a strong feeling I need a PC to do stuff to the VU box?
So is there a layman's explanation on how to install a new line without deleting the old one. I want to let my mate try the line I have before he forks out any dosh. This is why I need to make sure I don't delete the server he has now as I don't have any password for that. I just want to add the server I use so he can do a test as it's called. I also don't know how to use the software that I need to install the new line, again on the TM box I can enter this manually with the remote control but apparently this can't be don on the VU box can it?
I hope you can walk me through this all I want to do is add a line and that's it. If I had my own VU box it wouldn't be so bad if I made mistakes but someone else's is different. And I take it by your reply that if I upload to my mates box, a new server it won't over right the one he has on there now? -

A few things buddy and please forgive me if it comes across as direct.
You´ve been registered since June 2014, best part of a year,,so start reading..
What you are on about sounds like payserver test lines which you should have read the rules about.
Why doesn´t your mate come on and try these things out for himself??
You havent mentioned which vu+ box nor image being used
To communicate with any e2 image box you need to be able to FTP + Telnet.
you will find that DreamBox Control Centre aka DCC is an all-in-one tool choice .
Setting DCC up then FTP to /etc/CCcam.cfg and you add as many lines as you choose there.

At the same time many similar questions have been raised over and over again. I’m writing this just to make it easier for new members to find answers for their questions about cardsharing. I will focus on the use of a Dreambox as Sharing receivers and the CCcam protocol. Remember that a newbie is just an inexperienced expert ATTENTION! All this information is for test purpose and should only be used within your own household. No one except yourself is responsible for any damage this can cause or any law you might break. 2. Hardware What hardware you’ll need is based on how your house looks like, where you want to watch TV, how big server you want to have and so on. What we all need is a Dreambox of some kind. A computer with internet connection. If you have the computer in one room and the Dreambox in another room far away you will need either a long Ethernet cable or use another solution to connect your PC to your Dreambox. I can recommend the use of 2 Homeplugs, it’s a really user friendly alternative. Read more about Homeplugs here: HomePlug Powerline Alliance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia If you want to be able to handle a large number of peers you need a pc as server, more about that later. 3. Hardware installation Not much to say here. Put your Dreambox in a suitable place by your TV. Make sure you have enough space around it to let the air circulate freely and cool down the Dreambox. Connect the cable from your satellite dish (if you use a satellite dish) to your Dreambox tuner. Connect the network cable to the Dreambox. Connect power cord. Switch on. 4. Setup your network To be able to share with another CCcam server or even many servers you need to set up an network. 4.1 Fixed IP PC First of all you need a static ip in some way. Either you have one from your ISP or you can set one up for yourself. Follow this link for static ip: PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall 4.2 Network setup Dreambox Now you are ready to setup the ip of your Dreambox. You should have all information needed if you did step 4.1. For example PC ip = 192.168.1.141 Dreambox ip =192.168.1.142 subnet mask = 255.255.255.0 Default gateway = 192.168.1.1 DNS Server = 216.104.63.7 Remember to switch DHCP OFF 4.3 Port forward router Now you need to port forward all traffic trough one port to the Dreambox ip. Default port is 12000 but this can be changed in the config (CCcam.cfg). For more information about port forwarding go here: PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall 5. Software installation Dreambox Now we need to have the software to make the Dreambox work properly. First we flash an image to the Dreambox. 5.1 Flash imageThere are different images to choose from and it’s up to you what you prefer. But let’s chose a PLI image for this guide. Search this site for the newest image. When you have downloaded the newest image you need to flash it to your Dreambox. 5.2 Install CCcam Next step is to install CCcam Remember that this might change on newer images but the basics will probably be the same. In the today’s most recent image: Go to menu/plugins Click green button then click softcams and chose CCcam and install. Remember to change your default cam to CCcam. 6. Software installation (PC) There aren’t really any software that you have to install but there are some that makes everything easier. 6.1 DNS Updater This is more or less an must have. An DNS Updater is a software that constantly checks your public ip and links it to your static ip. Many ISP have dynamic ip’s which means that you’ll get a public ip that will change once in a while. It doesn’t mater if you’ll set a static ip in your PC, you’ll still have a public ip that will change. Therefore you will use a DNS Updater to fix this problem and always link your DNS servername which you will register for to your static ip. There are a few to chose from but I will recommend two: DynDNS Register here DynDNS Services: DNS, Domain Names, EMail Routing Download updater here [url]http://cdn.dyndns.com/windows/DynUpSetup.exe[/url] or if that link does not work you will find it here DynDNS Support No-ip Register for a standard free account here No-IP™ Free - Free Dynamic DNS - DDNS Or if you want to see all services look here Enterprise Managed DNS and Mail Services, 100% DNS Uptime, Domain Registration No-IP™ Download updater here Download a Free Dynamic DNS Update client for your dynamic IP 6.2 Dreambox Control Center (DCC) You can use this to edit your CCcam.cfg. This is pretty easy, just open the program and insert the ip for your router and Dreambox. You can change the language to English. 6.3 CCcamInfoPHP This is a software to get statistics and info about your peers and your server. Now download the latest CCcamInfoPHP from this forum. 6.3.1 Versions 0.8.2 and higher. Open CCcamInfoPHP_v0.8.2\htdocs\config.php in notpad and change the line you see below to match your server info. If you haven’t changed your webinterface port or your Dreambox login all you have to do is type in your Dreambox ip. Code: $CCCamWebInfo[] = array("192.168.1.xxx","16001","root","dreambox"); // for CCcam webinterface with user and pass Now open the file located in CCcamInfoPHP_v0.8.2\server\Apache\php.ini Find this section Code: ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; Resource Limits ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; and change the line: max_execution_time = 30 <---- Change this to a higher value like 60 Now you can start CCcamInfoPHP by clicking on CCcamInfoPHP v0.8.2.exe (or CCcamInfoPHP vX.X.X.exe). 6.3.2 Versions before 0.8.2 If you use a windows PC you need to install some server that can handle PHP. WAMP server is one that does that. Download it here: [url]http://www.en.wampserver.com/[/url] Install WAMPserver in C:\wamp The zipped file should include a lot of folders and files extract CCcamInfoPHP to C:\wamp\www\ Now you should find a file in the www folder called config.php. Open that file in a text editor like notpad. In that file you will find this lines: Code: //examples of server definitions $CCCamWebInfo[] = array("IP","PORT","USER","PASS"); // for CCcam webinterface with user and pass $CCCamWebInfo[] = array("IP","PORT"); // for CCcam webinterface with different port than default and without user and pass $CCCamWebInfo[] = array("IP"); Here you should edit IP to your dreambox ip. Port to webinterface port. User and pass to your Dreambox username and pass. Default Port is 16001 Default username is root Default pass is dreambox If you have many peers you might need to change some parameters in Code: \wamp\Apache2\bin\php.ini If you don’t have that file, try this one Code: \wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.6\bin\php.ini Find this lines in that file (you can open the file in notpad). Code: ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; Resource Limits ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; max_execution_time = max_input_time = ;max_input_nesting_level = memory_limit = Make sure you have at least this values: Code: max_execution_time = 300 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds max_input_time = 60 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data ;max_input_nesting_level = 64 ; Maximum input variable nesting level memory_limit = 128M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB) Now all you have to do is make sure WAMP server is running and open your web browser and browse to: [url]http://localhost/index.php[/url] or [url]http://localhost/somefolder/index.php[/url] 7. How to find someone to share with Now you need to have someone to cardshare with. When you have found someone to cardshare with you need to exchange C- and Flines. Let’s go through the basic with Flines and Clines. 8. Flines and Clines the basics The CCcam.cfg file is located in your Dreambox. You can access it from your PC with DCC. FTP to location: Code: var/etc Right click on CCcam.cfg and chose edit. Fline The Fline is basically the same as creating a user account on your server. The Fline consists of a Username and Password In your config you have a Friend section that is the part where you should add the Flines. Cline The Cline is more like a connection string that you give to your peers so that they can connect to your server. To be able to connect they need to have an account on your server (the Fline). Here is a basic Fline F: [username] [password] additional info F: myfriend abc123 3 0 0 { 0:0:3 } The part behind the password is privileges and restrictions. 3 0 0 { 0:0:3 } This user gets all cards at a maximum of 3 hops away from us, and get's to share them down two further levels beyond his own level. Here is a basic Cline C: [server] [port] [Fline username] [Fline password] additional info C: biocide.******.org 12000 myfriend abc123 no { 0:0:3, 100:3, 100:4 } no { 0:0:3, 100:3, 100:4 } no = don’t receives friends emus { 0:0:3 = how many hops down you want to receive cards from that server , 100:3, 100:4 } = here you can block cards from that server Summary of Clines and Flines in your config F: myfriend abc123 3 0 0 { 0:0:3 } C: the Cline that were sent to you. In your peers config F: an Fline that match the Cline that was sent to you C: your.server.org 12000 myfriend abc123 no { 0:0:3, 100:3, 100:4 } There are much more you can do in the Cline and Fline but this is the basic that I think everyone should know about. 9. Fake and old cards There are a lot of fake and old cards that are being shared and slowing down the servers, therefore you need to block all those cards. Here is a list with old and fake cards: Biocide's Server Information 10. Block all cards that you don’t want First of all I want to say that using the method below will block all cards that you don’t choose to receive. This also means that you will only share the cards that you decide to receive. Remember that your peers might want cards that you don’t receive because you blocked them, and therefore they can see you as a not so interesting peer. After every Cline you’ll add: no { 0:0:1 } This means that you take all cards on hop1. If you want any card on hop2 you’ll add: no { 0:0:1, 90f:0:2, b00:0:2, anycard, anycard, anycard } In this example I chose to get 90f:0 = "Viasat (5E/75E/1W)" on hop2 b00:0 = "Focus(1W) / C+Nordic(1W) / DigiAlb(16E) / MTV(19.2E)" on hop2 The last number is hop:90f:0:2
