Telnetting to the device

As per my previous post, I provided instructions on how to enable telnet on the device - for those of you who would like to have access but don't have the time to install the toolchain and mess about I have posted a modified firmware file here.

Please be aware if you chose to use this - it is at your own risk - although it worked for me, I will not be held responsible if it bricks or otherwise kills your camera, cat, car or grandmother.

Once installed you should be able to telnet onto the camera on port 15566; The telnetd limits it to 2 simultanious connections and there is no user level security.

I will post a further firmware shortly with SSH and SCP along with lots of other goodies when I get past the testing stage.
