All good points. :) Host security on a device like a music player is
probably not top on the list of Logitec's priorities, but my bigger
worry is, at least on the radio, the pointless open ports presented
via inetd. Echo, time and daytime are open for no real reason (unless
someone can tell me why).

I do wish perl was installed!  Could then make the touch/radio/etc do
some neat things...

It is beyond being a priority for the points I make, I am saying there
is NO point to encrypting the wifi key in this application.

As for open ports, yea those are probably not needed to be open and
should be closed.

You really don't need to scp if you just enable sharing on the device.
Once sharing is enabled you can treat the Touch live a network drive.

using scp will most likely be slower then a network share. SCP needs to
encrypt/decrypt files on the touch side. The CPU will be a bottleneck.

The default VU meter images can be found here:
http://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/jive/7.5/trunk/squeezeplay/src/squeezeplay/share/applets/WQVGAsmallSkin/images/UNOFFICIAL/VUMeter/

You can also install the SqueezePlayAdmin plugin/applet combination I
have in my testing repository, they make it possible to browse the
Touch file system and get any file on the Touch. However, it only works
for copying from the Touch to the PC.

scp is the way to go when copying files from PC to the Touch.

Could be, you can try to just install a SBS on a computer temporarily,
it should only be needed while you install the applet so you don't have
to run it all the time.

2010-04-17 Thread Mnyb

It is an easy way to change network settings.
for example set static ip on the Touch

Btw for some reason the prompt is outside the files system cd /
fix that, if you want to learn some basic linux skills you can use it
for that.

get a good linux book (linux bible is ok) or google some shell
commands

like ls ( dir in dos)
cd is change directory

try ls -la for a more comprehensive list

Your network settings is in the file interfaces

/etc/network/interfaces

try this # cat /etc/network/interfaces

cat is a command that prints a file to the screen so now you can read
it

There is a text editor on-board the Touch vi it is horrible but very
light

just # vi file_name

example:
# vi /etc/network/interfaces

!! google some good instructions on vi before doing this, frustration
guarantee included.

Want to edit your wireless settings fast:

/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

learn to use scp or get winscp so you can copy files

I have as an experiment changed to boot sound on my controller and the
boot screen.

There is an example in the wiki about changing highlight color, you now
that black bar under the menu text's

You can use scp to fetch the messages file if you want to read the
logs if you have a bug to track.

# reboot

reboots it

Or learn lua and do some awesome applets as Erland does
