Automatic reboot

[jcm193]

Hi does anyone know if there is a plugin that is compatible with the tm800 that will enable me to reboot the receiver at a set time thanks

Had a quick read about, and cron is apparantly already up and running in tm800 from what I can see. verify this by running "ps" in telnet... If so, then just create a crontab entry to reboot it...

I have no idea what you mean pooface any chance you can explain what you mean in lay men's terms please.I did find a post on another site regarding a script for a dreambox and placing in var/script do you think this will work on the tm 800 thanks

If cron is running on the tm800, you will need to edit the crontab to tell it to run the script ...

First off, telnet in to the tm800, and run ps. e.g. on the et9000 ViX image, this is an excerpt from running ps:

root@et9000:~# ps
  PID USER       VSZ STAT COMMAND
    1 root      1720 S    init [3]   
    2 root         0 SW   [migration/0]
    3 root         0 SWN  [ksoftirqd/0]
    4 root         0 SW   [migration/1]
    5 root         0 SWN  [ksoftirqd/1]
    6 root         0 SW<  [events/0]
    7 root         0 SW<  [events/1]
    8 root         0 SW<  [khelper]
    9 root         0 SW<  [kthread]
   10 root         0 SW<  [kblockd/0]
  397 messageb  2680 S    /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system 
  406 root      2344 S    /usr/sbin/dropbear -r /etc/dropbear/dropbear_rsa_host
  413 root      2232 S    /usr/sbin/crond -c /etc/cron/crontabs 
  418 root      1828 S    /usr/sbin/inetd 
  434 root         0 SW   [nfsd]
  435 root         0 SW   [nfsd]

I cut out a lot of the running processes, just to highlight which is needed. If this is running, we can create a script to tell it to run, for example, at 4am every morning...

if only the tm800 was that easy

TM800@/]# ps
  PID TTY          TIME CMD
 1680 pts/0    00:00:00 sh
 1692 pts/0    00:00:00 ps
TM800@/]#
