Hrmm Mp3TOFID and Rsync only seem to work for me if i first connect to the empeg via the hyperterminal with the serial cable connected.

After i do that, then i can connect through the microsoft telnet program without the serial cable connected and run the rsync.

Is that normal?

The only difference I can think of is that in Hypterminal i send the Q command to enter into developer mode.

Anyway you can enter into developer mode from the Microsoft Terminal Window?
