    Hoping someone could help me on this.

    I'm very new to Ubuntu and have just installed the latest version. I'm trying to get my linux tv box setup. I was told to install Filezilla, I got that done by using terminal but when I go to configuration wizard it say's wrong external address.



    Connecting to probe.filezilla-project.org
    Response: 220 FZ router and firewall tester ready
    USER FileZilla
    Response: 331 Give any password.
    PASS 3.3.3
    Response: 230 logged on.
    Checking for correct external IP address
    IP ***.***.**.*
    Response: 510 Mismatch. Your IP is **.***.***.***
    Wrong external IP address
    Connection closed

    Is it your external IP you are entering? Is this relevant?

    is the user FileZilla? You should be connecting to the box as whoever the normal user you would log in as is.

    I dont know what box you are using but this is how I connected to a vu+duo without a router... I used this method with Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10. This assumes that you don't know the IP address of the VU+. I connected the box to computer with cat5 cable. No router or switch in between. Im using Vix 1.2 image. 1.Right click the network icon on the top panel 2.In the Wired tab, highlight Auto eth0 and click edit 3.Tick connect automatically and available to all users 4.Go to the ipv4 tab go to the drop down list and choose Shared to other Computers 5.Click apply Should be connected now. Right click the network icon again and go to connection information. In auto eth0 tab you see the details of the connection to the VU+. On this page you can get the IP address of the box. Take a note of it. in filezilla, I typed in the IP address as found above I think I left the username blank and entered root in the passowrd box. that should be it Open firefox./opera Type IP address of box into address bar. Can access webTV interface and other info here. ''
