Well...
I think the problem here is that my tivos address is not
192.168.1.100
it is 192.168.1.105
I set the tivo host name in the tivoapp to that and I still get the
following message...
bash: /var/hack/tivoweb-tcl: is a directory
bash-2.02# source /.profile cd /var/hack/tivoweb-tcl
bash: /var/hack/tivoweb-tcl: is a directory
bash-2.02# ShowList.tcl 192.168.1.100 7100
bash: ShowList.tcl: command not found
bash-2.02#
If I just go to the directory where ShowList.tcl is
and ./ShowList.tcl it starts doing its thing..
HELP????
