Softmod Depot

I figured this thread is worth starting

1) What does an FTP program do?:

An FTP Program allows access to the Hard Drive of a computer or File Server

2) What does NIC mean?

Network Interface Card

3) How do I set up an FTP?

There are many ways to set up a FTP, Hard and Cheap or Easy and Expensive. Now this requires some basic Computer skills.

---

Easy and exspensive=Router
Router=35-45$
Ethernet cord=10$

Setting up FTP with an Router
1). Make all the connections. Connect the Cable or DSL modem to the Routers WAN port. Connect your PC to port #1 xbox to port #2.

2). Setting up SmartFTP(This is my program of choice, there is others like FlashFTP) Load up Evox or Ltools and write down the IP: (EX:192.168.0.3). Now type the Username and Password(The Defualts are xbox and xbox) then click connect and BAM you have FTP accese to the box.

---

Hard and cheap=2nd NIC and crossover cable.
2Nd NIC=5$
Xbox system link cord=14$

Setting up FTP with the 2nd NIC

1). Open up the PC and install the Secoend NIC,(Make shure power is unplugged and you have touched mare metal first) Load up Windows and install the Drivers for the NIC. Now With the system link cord, Connect one end to the xbox and the other to the new NIC. Now on the bottom toolbar Click "START" Then "Help And support" and in the "search" box type "ICS" without qouets. then under "Pick a task" select "Enable Internet Connection Sharing on a network connection" only follow step 1,2 and 3. MAke shure you are sharing your INTERNET connection not the xbox's connection.

2). Setting up SmartFTP(This is my program of choice, there is others like FlashFTP) Load up Evox or Ltools and write down the IP: (EX:192.168.0.3). Now type the Username and Password(The Defualts are xbox and xbox), then click connect and BAM you have FTP accese to the box.

It says my xbox is connected but i cannot connect with any FTP programs.

Try to use Internet Explorer. Open up Inter expoler and where you type in your webpag at the addres bar, type FTP://xbox:xbox@(Your xbox's IP goes here):21  Example, FTP://xbox:xbox@192.168.0.3:21


Please tell me if i missed something or if it's unclear!

Freaking Awesome!!! You guys are excellent.

ok youve convinced me, a friend has an NIC 4 me and i can *get hold of* an ethernet cable.

sorry 4 being dumb but what do u mean by 2nd NIC card? Just another NIC right? If i didn't want to connect to the internet at the same time as ftp in my xbox, could i use the NIC i have?

grrrrrr i hate being so computery dum, i need to read more stuff. . .

Listen You need a CROSSOVER STYLE ethernet cord. basicly an xbox system link cord. like i said go to www.ebay.com, get a free acount, buy a 50ft ethetnet CROSSOVER cable. and by 2nd NIC card i meen adding a secoend NIC card.(Sorry about confusion) please post if you have more questions .

ok excellent explanation, should be setting up soon!

Good, The more stuff you do with your computer, the better you will get. I have only been messing with xbox stuff for about 2-3 weeks andi i know almost as much as SMD.(Mostly from surfing the net).

Researching DOSE help.

NOS---

right i have the NIC card and crossover ethernet cable, but i have not installed the card yet. I am using a shamefully older version of windows than xp (am waiting for longhorn *patience jebus patience*) and in my help & support section it has this option (once i have searched fo ICS):

Internet connection sharing with DCHP

is this the same thing renamed? or is it not optional yet as i have not installed the drivers or card?
i have read it but it seems to give no info on how to enable the internet sharing connection

OK, Now i must ask what kind of internet you use first. also what version of windows.

I find it funny you ask for help then you go xbox scene, and you will probobly come back here.

But that is ok, i am always willing to help.

i just find that on xbox-scene u get a reply alot faster, but they are all mean ppl that really hate dum questions and dum ppl *shifty eyes*.
i like the way that no1 here takes the piss bcoz i am a 'n00b' and dont no what im doin alot of the time. So yeah i will ask questions here and maybe look elsewhere 2. If i have everything ready to go, i just want to get it done- not too bothered about who helps, just any1...

neho in the end no1 cud help-- i had a faulty NIC
should be gettin another 2moz
soz if u feel ive wasted ure time

I have to been in same poosition(People not answering n00bish and stupid quetions.)

In a way you have waseted my time but yet i dont care, if you use many forums you will get mixed answers, mostly wrong ones.(you need to know the OS and system specs to truly enable ICS) and i was giving you help but hey

C'mon dude. No time is wasted... Im sure when you get your new NIC we'll be able to get you up and running. While NOS is right about getting mixed answers even to the most basic questions... It's entirely possible, with such a wide spectrum of ideas and solutions, that you'll find just what your looking for, even if it's not here. But WE ARE ALWAYS willing to give it a try.

This forum is just starting out... obviously... (15 members... 3-5 of which actually post heh) My goal, eventually, is to have this be a one-stop solutions for almost any Soft Mod / Xbox question. Noobish or not.

Once again, you guys are awesome..... keep it up. I'll try to post more... I read it everyday though. :) If that counts for anything.

hey again! great news! i have installed a new NIC, hooked it to my xbox, configured all the settings that i can. TRYED to use windows home network wizard to share my internet connection, but its not looking good. Once the wizard has finished it says: 'netconn has caused an error in 'NETCONN.exe'' os something v similar.

does any of this mean anything to anyone?
thanks for any answers ( i wont be asking newhere else for as long as my patience can bear it)

[edit] i have discovered that netconn.exe is a commonly found faulty app with windows ME, i have now set up the ICS and have an icon in my quik launch bar that says '1 computer is using the internet connection'- is this the one im on or the xbox?

Now is you (DSL)MODEM connect to your comupter by a USB cord or a cord like the system link? make shure you are sharing you INTERNET connecting, not you XBOX connection. and is you xbox ON? also, if it says 1 computer is connected to your connection, you xbox is not connected. i woulod like to take over you system over the net and do this myself, and get you running.(dont worry, SMD did it to mine, that is how he fixed my box) right click "My Computer" and select "FIND" and search EVERYTHING and type, "Remote Assistance" then find a shortcut with that name. and at the bottem it will say save as an E-Mail Attachment, click that and send it to Nitrious@gmail.com

ok r u online now?
there r no shortcuts to anything 'remote assistance' like, or any shortcuts atall

...im still trying...

i'm cleaning my room but i will keep checking, (Xbox media center is AWESOME) yeah so try what i typed first and give me the info

NOS---

nay theres nothing there, cud b coz my OS is so old and rubbish?

Hmm... im not exactly sure... Speaking of of the top of my head.. It's trying ot connect to rndom ports... 38588 or something like that.  Make sure you using port 21 and s far as pasv mode goes... if it's on turn it off and if it's off turn it on. Also... what ftp program are you using. Got to, in Internet explorer, ftp://192.168.0.2:21     and go to fille login as and enter your stuff.... if you can connect then it's a problem w/ your ftp program... i recomment smart ftp. but evertime i reccomend a program or a soft mod .... I GET REAMED FOR BEING OUTDATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! j/k. let me know how that goes.

Sorry about the sp. errors. Im doing this on my xbox.... the screen is a little blurry.

LOL! NOS - quit telling people i fixed our box... its nasty duder. lol. j/k. If my previous post was asinine it's cuz the resolution on my xbox is only 800x600 and i couldn't see the second page of this thread. So you can disregard it you'd like.

ewww well thanks for trying SMD lol
ill give it a go but i have tryed smart and flash
i have turned passive on and off on both!
been trying this for 4 hours...

ill give ure IE idea a bash

btw i am usng a USB connection to my broadband doodah (aka the silver wudjamacallit)

ps IE6? soooooooo outdated, firefox all the way (if my sig says im using IE its lying!)

OMFG i love u SMD
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA hahahahahah
 btw it worked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can see folders!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! with letters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


now using cuteFTP--works like a dream...

lol, i missed ALOT. if i had know that you modem was connected VIA usb.... (most modes are ethernet.) and yeah IE was my next thing. o well. GOOD JOB SMD!!!

FTTP://xbox:xbox@192.168.0.3:21 is easier, and SMD is that Linx? and i think you know here i'm getting at ;) ;)

I installed Gentoox on my F:, it took up 4 gigs.. and it's a fully functional Linux box now... But i can still play games on it and do everything else. It's now just a menu item... "Linux" I select it and it boots up... It's awesome. I can ssh into my xbox and well, do what ever I want. Pretty cool if you ask me. It's free too.  Search Xbox Linux in google. Good stuff. BTW I was just running FireFox on my xbox and checking the forum.

wopah! working like a dream... been playin mario kart 64 and Legend of Zelda for the snes!!!! yaaay
can i put xdsl in E:\apps?

it has to be in an folder, e\apps\xdsl

BTW i highly suggest you get xbox media center

xbmc yeah ive heard of it... isnt that just a video/music player?

k almost got this linux thang down: once it has all loaded up- i cannot move the mouse with the xbox controller...euch

ne ideas peeps?

Yes it plays Audio and Video, it plays ALL file formats of video IE: .mpeg, .avi.... and all .MP3 and .wma

ok ill try it
i can run xbmc from apps right been hearing about ppl using it as a dash...
i got xDSL working after a few hours, kinda thinking what was da point? o well it looks kool

soz i no i shud probly start a nu topic... next q i will

sweet .. you did a good job

ICS is just a M$ thing, not even real.

You want the real deal then read up on NAT and masquerading, these are real technologies not fluffy windows icing that get people confused in the first place.. If M$ would call things by the correct name instead of using bollocks made up terms like this then the world would be more seamless and people would only have to learn things once instead of twice, the m$ way and the Real way.

oh yeah, with my new found 'expertise' i realised that setting up ICS can be confusing and is un neccesary (for FTPing to the xbox). Just plug the xbox to the pc and adjust your TCP ports IP to match your dashboard settings for PCs IP...

Im currently using my xbox as a portable memory for transfering shiznit onto my brand spanking new (but not yet online) pc... kinda makes me wish the Ethernet port was at the front of the damn thang... psh bah flah etc.

ok guys bear with me here becasue i'm the biggest noob on this site and i have not a clue as to what i'm doing. but i hooked my xbox up to my router and all that and downloaded smartftp and started the program up. I click connect and it askes me to put in my login information, what is this? what do i put here? i tried username:xbox password:xbox and it sais this:  Unable to resolve host name.
    Active Help: http://www.smartftp.com/support/kb/index.php/81

i'm not too sure wtf that means but i'm guessing it's trying to connect to a website instead of my xbox?? how do i fix this? like i said i am the biggest noob at this and have not a clue what i'm doing. bear with me!

ok now i realize that you are supposed to put the xboxs ip address in the top menu bar of smart ftp, where do i find my xboxs ip? i went looking for it in my xbox settings and found an ip so i entered into smart ftp and put as my user name:xbox and my password:xbox and here's what came up:
SmartFTP v1.5.990.26

please help me!!!!!!

well it seems to me like you have conflicting software issues.
try disabling your auto protect / firewall / whatever

if you still have problems type this into IE: ftp://xbox:xbox@192.168.1.103:21 
if you can acces it this way, change port/passive values on smartFTP or alternatively, try another FTP prgram (i personally reccoment cuteFTP)

hope this helps
let me know

Hey man,

Get look@lan you can find it here. : http://www.snapfiles.com/dlnow/rdir.dll?id=106049 - it's simple im sure you can get it.. just install and run. It'll list every item on your network. And it will also tell you which one is your xbox.. it'll read (not windows).

Once you determine which ip your xbox is using puch that in smart ftp. Then username xbox password xbox. If that still doesn't work change the settings on your xbox to dhcp.. you can change  this in evox settings. Then reboot, restart look@lan and find the ip.. then try that. It will most likely work. Let us know.

Damn that was a long Read   =)  BooYea!!!!! lol

SOON TO COME

I hope to Re-Do the tut, and update it. I know I can do better now.

also, I AM BACK!!!!!

help im trying to put new hard drive in

192.168.1.1 is your router IP

open your network connection
and goto details and look up your

IP: 192.168.1.100
SUBNETMASK: 255.255.255.0
DEFUALT GATEWAY: 192.168.1.1
DNS SERVER: 192.168.1.13

then set your xbox to DHCP and read what the IP address off your TV screen when the xbox is turned on
if you IP is 192.168.1.100
and you xbox is the only other thing on the network, the xbox IP will be
192.168.1.101
user = xbox
pass= xbox
port 21

good luck

when i ftp mine its


198.168.1.214

One thing worth mentioning that other might come up against -- I couldn't enable ICS, getting an error saying the ip address needed was already used (paraphrased). I had to go to my router and reset it's ip address from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.1 to get this to work. After that, ICS worked fine.

Awesome tutorial, I can FTP my ass off!

do we have to already have evo x on xbox

I'm trying to ftp my xbox... I've tried EVERYTHING.  :(  I tried turning on and off noob-sending... passive mode... I've tried adjusting the boxes ip address... I've tried using anonnymous mode, using password... changing name and password... changing the port adress... ALL of it!  It just won't connect! :(  I've tried smartftp and flashfxp...  neither will work!  It stinks!   Can someone PLEASE help me... I've gotten it to work before... but it's been like a year...   Please help.   -Wrath

Change your xbox to static ip and put in 192.168.1.200 as the ip, and then change your pc ip address to 192.168.1.201 .

Launch up flash and try to connect with  username: xbox
                                                                 password: xbox

First, thanks for this guide!
2nd I'd like to say that :

Having 2 NICs connected to your PC, HELPS ALOT TO SOLVE THE XBOX UNCONECTABLE FTP!

I was trying to connect to my xbox for the last 3 weeks, with only one NIC in my PC and I never got it to run. Untill I've passed trow this thread, added another NIC, loaded my Unleash-X, started XBMC, to see if it helped, at first I didn't notice s**t, until all of a suden I see NEWS scrolling down , I was WTF?! I went to the Weather option and it worked! ****! first thing I did... IS TO BACKUP MY XBOX "CDRive", "EEPROM", "UDATA" and "TDATA" folders!

THANKS TO THE SMDEPOT FORUM USERS!

Glad to see it works  ;)

My Window XP Computer setting for TCP/IP

IP address: 169.254.244.201
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 169.254.244.2
DNS server: 169.254.244.2

Please help..
I really don't want to change the setting in the computer I have other stuff already configured
for the network.

make your xbox's network settings like this, going through the hub

IP address: 169.254.244.202
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 169.254.244.2
DNS server: 169.254.244.2

Where in the unleashX menu is this done?

I may already have a printer set at

 IP address: 169.254.244.202
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 169.254.244.2
DNS server: 169.254.244.2

 Guess I coud set it at

IP address: 169.254.244.203    or   169.254.244.204
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 169.254.244.2
DNS server: 169.254.244.2

I assume that would not make a difference on 203 or 204

I will try this tonight. I hope this takes care of the problem.
Please get back to me on how to mod the FTP settings on the xbox

Thanks,
Clay

what exactly is a router. how would i do this if i had wireless?

router is what splits your internet to all the pc's / xbox's in your house, and wireless is the same as wired, you just need to know the ip address of what you want to connect 2

Man it has been awhile...

Glad to see my guide has helped people out!

When time premits, ecpect Version 2 of this guide with way less spelling errors!

I actually made a V2 of this guide myself but I haven't submitted it because I wanted yours to remain here NOS--- . Welcome back.

about the LINUX.... i have the game save for splinter cell on my AR memory card, so i just load up the game and go to the game save and it sould download the program??

You have to copy the gamesave off of your memory card onto the xbox then launch splinter cell and choose that gamesave to load. Then you will get a screen with all the options like backup eeprom install softmod etc. First you want to backup the eeprom then install the softmod. All of it is straight-forward so it won't be too hard.

Also someone said something about ftp with internet explorer and i was wondering what that had to do with anything. but i tried to do what they said with putting "ftp://xbox:xbox@192.168.0.3" into the adress bar and nothing happened. plz help.

Well your xbox has to be softmodded first then you can ftp. You type this in IE exactly ftp://xbox:xbox@YOURIPHERE

Here's an updated tutorial (http://smdepot.net/news/?page_id=24)

Ok my IP is the one that i find on the xbox after i have turned it on and after it has been softmodded by the LINUX program for the Splinter cell game save. Then i can use the FTP in internet explorer to find the proper programs?

You can then use the Internet Explorer to view the contents of the Xbox and then go to our Files (http://www.smdepot.net/files.html) section to download any Applications that you might want to put on the Xbox.

If you want instant access to all the good Applications, Emulators and Homebrew games then you can check out the Team SMD Auto-Installer that I made in the Files (http://www.smdepot.net/files.html) section also.

you need the password
username: xbox
password: xbox
those are the defaluts

if that doesnt help, just make sure your console is set using a static IP (if you want) so it wont change, and try using defualt internet explorer, that might help

ftp://xbox:xbox@192.168.0.3:21 (or whatever your IP is)
