Good evening and Merry Christmas to all members :D

Recently i have hacked my dreambox with tuxbox and changed the root password so i could have access on my dreambox etc.
Before 3 months(i think) our dreambox went for a service and the service man changed my root password again and put a password to tuxbox so i do not have access to it.

Is there a way to regain access?
Also i started using Linux because of its good apps which might help me.
Please anything will help

If you have no tuxbox in the plugins menu and you can not download it fromm your images server then there is no other way to change a unknown password.

I have the tuxbox commander in my plugins but it needs a password to run
I came up with an idea but i dont know if it works. My idea is to explore through the dreambox files, find the passwd files, copy the hash code or whatever its called and copy it into a computer program to crack it

1.what was that for a service guy???sounds for me not like official service!

other password on box and password on tuxbox??sounds for me like service from a payserver!!!

2.you need a tool where you can rename files!like tux-box or filebrowser or something else!
you can download something from addons?

which image you are using??

im using gemini project
my box is visionet and is a clone of the dm5620(im not sure)

its not an official dreambox. the service guy just did an update on my box and changed the root password.

i can download addons but not big ones as i have very little free space.
BEFORE the guy did the update on my box i could access the tuxbox commander (from my dreambox) with no problem.
but after the update when i try to run the tuxbox it needs a password to run. :confused:
