Telnet problem

[hellshockd]

Hey all,

Have been reading and trying to follow most of the newbie guides here :)
Got a 2nd hand vu+ duo ,and have been able to add an image to it.
Now stuck on the telnet part.i get in,but when i get to the part where i should in the word passwrd to get me to change the password i get -not found

Anyone got any ideas?:)

Thanks,and have a nice day .

well the default password is "blank" (just leave the field empty)

have you installed a new image or a pre-configured/tuned one that may be having a password set in it

Thanks for the reply.

Using the latest black hole img.
That telnet guid seems easy,i just do not get the chance to change the password,it says -not found,where it's supposed to leave an empty space for a new password

One other thing to notice, you tried typing the command "passwrd", whereas it should be "passwd" (notice, no r).

Would recommend to change the password though, just on the safe side ;)
