Thank you, JJZolx. I don't know how to answer as your first reply (putting my answers inside a quote). 1)Yes - I enabled "sharing" 2)Yes, port 22 was selected automatically in Putty 3)By "the prompt", did you mean the green mark as in the earliest Apple computers? Or "login as"? I didn't see "login as". I entered "root" instead of the password, the same warning popup came out "network error: connection timed out" 4)I put "\\" before the IP address or Touch name in Windows Explorer but I was told "Windows couldn't find the address" 5)I didn't change the default settings in sharing so password is still 1234 6)I am using a WD Elements 2TB desktop hard drive. It wakes up instantly even after many hours of sleeping (not playing anything on the hard drive). It is cold and no vibration on the case. As long as I don't choose "stop the server" on the Touch, the hard drive will work again right away without any problem. In advanced\Diagnostics\Network Health it says "All network tests passed successfully" and the Touch can play internet radio -- so I think it is indeed connected to the network. The problem is the connection between the Touch Server and my Windows laptop. I really need to make the Windows recognize the Touch and the Putty or Winscp work. -- verycd ------------------------------------------------------------------------ verycd's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=49940 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90673 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
