This sounds great – unfortunately when I try the command;

scp -r /usr/libexec/httpd frontrow@your.apple.tv.ip.address:/usr/libexec/.

I get the error;
scp: /usr/libexec/./httpd: Permission denied

I’m definately logged in to the apple tv… – do I need to alter permissions or use a sudo command?

any help gratefully received

[...] The Apple TV hacks are coming fast and furious as recorded on both the Something Awful thread we already told you about, and at the Apple TV Hacks blog. Over at Something Awful, user macado shows the Apple TV successfully decoding a 720p XviD clip using the open source VLC player (though only for 6 minutes). Other users have demonstrated Firefox and iTunes running on an Apple TV as well. Meanwhile at Apple TV Hacks, there are already tutorials up on getting SSH and AFP access and even setting up Remote Desktop (VNC) and Apache. [...]

We replaced a small production Webserver with an Apple tv since May 6th 2007.

Works pretty good!

The Apple TV only runs the Apache Webserver, cause it definitely has not enough ram to handle the large MySql Database.

Hi, I just wrote a mini Howto for adding XAMMP to the Apple TV. Look for it at awkwardtv.org (on the wiki). This will enable Apache/MySQL/PHP/Perl/ProFTPD.

Hope this help,

These Hacks are Great!! They are simple to do and work GREAT!! However, it would be very usefull to see somebody submit details about how to enable PHP and or mySQL. Sure, I know know how to copy /usr/bin/php, but does apache mods need to be coppied? What needs to be done in httpd.conf? Thanks for all of the useful tips.
