ZGemma H2S Password

Does anyone know what the password might be for the above box? I'm unable to install any script unless I have a password, which essentially renderes my box useles.

It originally came with EXPRESSIPTV running WooshBuild

I can telnet into it, the username appears to be "root" but then it asks for a password which is the issue, any help is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Whoever EXPRESSIPTV are, they have locked your box and only they will know the password. My advice would be to flash the box with openATV 6.2 and start again. Make sure you know how to re-add any IPTV you may have though.
 
Open /etc/passwd with DreamExplorer

On the first line delete the "x" after "root:". It's important to leave the colons

After editing, the first line should look something like this:

root::0:0:root:/home/root:/bin/sh

Restart the receiver and the password will be reset (ie no password)



root:x:0:0:root:/home/root:/bin/sh
daemon:x:1:1:daemon:/usr/sbin:/bin/sh
bin:x:2:2:bin:/bin:/bin/sh
sys:x:3:3:sys:/dev:/bin/sh
sync:x:4:65534:sync:/bin:/bin/sync
games:x:5:60:games:/usr/games:/bin/sh
man:x:6:12:man:/var/cache/man:/bin/sh
etc
