I just setup my AppleTV Yesterday:
My Objective is to be able to access the AppleTV from my PC so I can directly place media on the AppleTV hard drive. I want to do this because the PC is often under a high load which leads to choppy play on the AppleTV. Ideally this will be an application with a GUI so that I can simply drag and drop media on to the AppleTV (Ideally setup some sort of automatic sync).
I am able to SSH from the Terminal on my Macbook successfully. However when I try this from a PC I am able to connect to the AppleTV using several ssh programs (Winscp, Bitvise, SSHExplorer and Putty). They all seem to be able to connect initially however authentication fails when I am prompted to put in my username and password.
Here is the error from SSH Explorer:
Connecting...
Connected...
Disconnected... [Cause: Invalid username or password reported by server.]
I am using the username administrator and the password frontrow (same as in the terminal on my mac)
