How to TELNET to your Dreambox

If you're a Windows user, you can use the TELNET or HyperTerminal application to

get access to the Linux command prompt. Your username is root and the password is

dreambox.

Windows comes with a standard FTP program, which is very hard to use. An easy to

use graphical FTP interface is available in Microsoft's Internet Explorer. Just surf to

ftp://root:dreambox@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (replace the xxx's by the IP address of your

Dreambox). Copy & paste operations are available.

Download the utility called DreamBoxEdit at http://dreambox.happyllama.com.

How to edit files on your Dreambox using a

Windows PC

Since Linux uses other characters than a Windows PC, you cannot edit files using for

instance Notepad of Wordpad. You'll have to use a Linux compatible editor, like

Ultraedit (which can be downloaded from http://www.ultraedit.com) This software

also incorporates an FTP interface, which makes editing files on your Dreambox a

piece of cake.
