Copy file from disk to USB disk via FTP or Telnet problem

[Lateron]

Hi people,
I am not an expert on FTP or Telnet, so please help me out of my misery. I have a Vu+ Duo with Blackhole 1.7.6 with internal disk and USB connected disk drive.
I am trying to copy a recorded file “The rock show.ts” from /media/hdd/movie to the external USB disk /autofs/sdb1/@@@MULTI_MEDIA Files
As I had access problems using Telnet, I changed all permissions. The “write” permissions for group and public cannot be changed on the “autofs” directory. Directory @@@MULTI_MEDIA Files has full write permissions.

By dragging and dropping the file “The rock show.ts” to the external USB drive, this is the log:

Status: Renaming '/media/hdd/movie/20130805 2159 - VH1 Classic - The Rock Show.ts' to '/autofs/sdb1/@@@MULTI_MEDIA Files/20130805 2159 - VH1 Classic - The Rock Show.ts'
Command: RNFR 20130805 2159 - VH1 Classic - The Rock Show.ts
Response: 350 Ready for RNTO.
Command: RNTO /autofs/sdb1/@@@MULTI_MEDIA Files/20130805 2159 - VH1 Classic - The Rock Show.ts
Response: 550 Rename failed.

I am trying to COPY the file, but it appears that Filezilla wants to RENAME it? Should the command not be “get” and/or “put” ?

Can anyone shed some light on this problem?

Further information: I wanted to try via Telnet.
Using Microsoft Telnet: (Firewall changed to allow)
Microsoft Telnet > o 192.168.0.40
bm750 login: root
root@bm750:~ # Vuduo (why does it come back with “:~ #” ?)
-sh: Vuduo: not found

Using Putty: (Firewall changed to allow)
Login as: root
root@192.168.0.40´s password: Vuduo
Access denied
root@192.168.0.40´s password: (tried all combinations of Capitals & small letters.)

Using Filezilla:
Login works OK with same user & password.

Results of some tests:
Using Filebrowser on the Vu+ Duo (Blackhole 1.7.9) to copy a file from
“/media/hdd/movie/Video Songs” to USB connected external disk.
Get error:
CP:
Cannot create “/media/USB/20101013 1806 – 20101013 1806 - DELUXE MUSIC - Joe Cocker - You Can Leave___ (1986).ts” : Read-only file system.

I have changed all possible file permissions to ALL (Chmod 777)


Using Filezilla. (Copy = drag and drop)
(Movie = /media/hdd/movie)
(USB = /media/usb/@@@MULTI_MEDIA Files)

Copy USB ==> PC OK
Copy PC ==> USB NOT OK

Copy Movie ==> PC OK
Copy PC ==> Movie OK

Copy USB ==> Movie NOT OK
Copy Movie ==> USB NOT OK

Additionally, when I try to record anything from satellite to USB, it shows that it is recording but no recording can be found on the external disk.

is your USB drive already mounted? Do you use USB stick as well?

The putty problem is probably because it uses ssh, while other is telnet. If you select telnet in putty, it will login too using root / blank

Thank you all very much for your input.
I have been using the external USB disk to play movies etc using Mediaplayer and/or Filebrowser. No problems at all. So I did not realise that when WRITING to the disk it would have to be formatted to Fat32. So on Black Hole 1.7.9 I can read and play from a NTFS formatted drive but cannot write to it. I had not noticed that. That was my mistake!
I have since upgraded to Black Hole 2.0.5 Rev B which gives you the capability of reading and writing to a Fat32 or NTFS formatted drive. I tested it out to-day and it works a treat.

(Off topic) By the way, the reason for wanting to write to the USB drive was so that I could import a 3 hour recording (of about 30 odd video songs) to my PC. On my PC I could then cut the recording into about 30 odd segments which I would then put back onto the Vu+ Duo to be able to play them randomly. All because I cannot get Cutlist editor & Movie cut to work for me. On my old box it was dead simple to cut a recording into segments. On the Vu+ Duo it is not. I wish there was an alternative to these add-ons.

Anyway, thank you again for your help and suggestions.
