The Amino boxes run a Linux operating system and get configured by the owner. (if provided by a content (movie)
provider). They can include a telnet server for support personnel or rely completely on the unit getting a fresh boot
image (ie: bootp) when the unit powers up, this is more common because of security with their video on demand movies.
A factory image does indeed have the telnet and there are some settings you can adjust using VI editor in Busybox.
Check past posts on the root user's password.
I personally have decided to go to a media server PC. Enclosures are getting really fancy and with the 3D video
cards run PC based games and display internet web pages far better than the Amino boxes. Please note that
VideoLan is the center of playing music and movies.
