1.-- File Descriptions ------- --- -- - - -

 

newcs.ppc -> NewCS binary for dreambox, tripledragon and other powerpc machines.

newcs-infinity.ppc -> NewCS with support for the Infinity-USB programmer for powerpc machines.

newcs.x86 -> 32bit NewCS binary for linux on Intel compatible machines.

newcs-infinity.x86 -> NewCS with support for the Infinity-USB programmer for Intel compatible machines.

newcs.mips -> NewCS binary for linux on Mips machines. (OpenWRT) (this only support phoenix as type)

newcs.xml -> The configfile that NewCS reads, should be placed in /var/tuxbox/config.

libusb-0.1.so.4.ppc -> libusb for powerpc machines. (needed by newcs-infinity.ppc)

libusb-0.1.4.x86 -> libusb for Intel compatible machines. (needed by newcs-infinity.x86)

readme.txt -> This file you smartass

 

 

2.-- Runtime Arguments ------- --- -- - - -

 

NewCS can be run with some arguments when you start it, here are some of them explained:

 

-c configfile, here you can specify the path to a configfile.

-h help, will show something similar to this.

-v version, this will show when the binary is compiled and which version it is.

example:

/var/newcs -c /etc/newcs-usb.xml (you give full path to configfile)

 

3.-- Configfile ------- --- -- - - -

 

Remeber to always close the tags, there is a beginner tag "<tag>" and a end tag "</tag>", if the tag start

with a "<!-" and ends with a "->" it is a comment. More info about xml you will find on google..

 

Look in the configfile for explanations on what the different sections are.

Configfile isnt case-sensitive and shouldnt care about dos/unix crlf differences.

 

 

4.-- TCP-Commands ------- --- -- - - -

 

Telnet to the tcp-port (default is 1001) and write the commands hit enter to execute it:

PS! In windows the standard telnet client doesnt work, try using f.ex Putty as a client instead.

 

help - shows the current commands, and use - available in this binary.

users - shows users, and their stats.

cards - shows cards, caid, port etc.

reset <num> - to reset the card manually, <num> is the card number showed in cards command

ban <num> - to ban(block) user, <num> is number showed in users.

unban <num> - to unban the user banned above.

adduser - add a temporary user.

level <new level> - log level in the current tcp connection, if you give a number it will be set as new loglevel.

type <new type> - log type in the current tcp connection, if you give a number it will be set as new type.

shutdown - shutdown NewCS.

exit - exit tcp interface.

uptime - show server uptime.

 

PS! if logging bothers you when using tcp-commands, please set loglevel to 0 to stop logging.

 

 

5.-- FAQ ------- --- -- - - -

 

Q: Who are you, and why are you doing this?

A: we are a group that tries to have some fun, during our spare time we have satellite-studying as

a hobby - and since newcamd project has its own strange politics, gbox project isnt public and

the rest of the available isnt quite like we wanted to have it - we wrote our own <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />)

 

Q: Why NewCS as project name?

A: Since newcamd already "stole" the cardserver name - we found out to differ it from newcamd project's

cardserver, we made another name for it.. NewCS - "New CardServer"

If you find out another nice name for it, just let us know, we rather code a little as to think about names <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />)

 

Q: Which protocols are supported, and why that new one?

A: Both radegast and newcamd protocol are 100% supported, this to be compatible with any of the current

clients out there.. eg. mgcamd, evocamd, newcamd and so on.. The reason we made a new protocol is

because we wanted something of our own - this we can extend and do whatever we want with, the others

is in the hands of their respective authors.. and can be changed without us kinda "approving" it..

 

Q: So, which cards are supported?

A: well.. good question <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> (since i asked it myself it must be faboulous <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />)

At this moment the following cards are supported:

*- Conax (ecm&emm) *- Seca (ecm&emm)

*- Irdeto (ecm&emm) *- Cryptoworks (ecm&ecm w/mosc)

*- Betacrypt (ecm&emm) *- Viaccess (ecm&emm)

*- Dreamcrypt (ecm&emm) *- Videoguard (ecm&emm)

*- Nagravision (init not done yet)

(all needs to be tested ofc, we dont have the opportunity to do extensive tests).

 

Q: Where can i find the sourcecode for NewCS?

A: The sourcecode wont be released as we have done alot of work to design it, and really not much help around

.. personally i can deeply recommend starting on your own project, you'll learn much - i promise <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />)

 

Q: Help? It DOESNT work - where can i reach you?

A: Well.. we hope that when NewCS gets public, there will be a few experts around on the different

forums and irc channels all around the globe.. you cant reach us, but if you post your questions,

or if you got errorlog, etc. - on a english-speaking or german-speaking forum, we will probably see it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />)

 

Q: I Want to donate money to your project, where do i send them?

A: We do this just for fun, and have no commercial interest what-so-ever, we suggest that you send

the money to a help-organization like f.ex the red-cross, or something similar <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

 

Q: Why cant newcamd connect to my card?

A: Well, newcamd guys have some strange politics.. some cards cant be used in newcamd with the standard

protocol.. for some reasons newcamd can only use that with betad and some bloody *nix socket..

To watch these cards, you have to use the NewCS compliant camds (evocamd or mgcamd) - or maybe some others that havent got limitation.

 

Q: Why cant gbox connect to my card?

A: Gbox isnt a public project, and "only a few" ppl can get updated versions.. and so on (we all know its BS though).

anyway.. the protocol used in gbox are unknown at this moment, they change it everytime someone figures it out,

so we wont support it unless gbox should find out that they would like to use NewCS.. then they can make support <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

(cs2gbox could work, but who knows or cares )

 

Q: Is the xml protocol available?

A: Yes! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> will be documented here ASAP!

 

 

6.-- Changelog ------- --- -- - - -

 

v.1.05 -Public Beta:

Added Conformance logic 1.1 (this fixes the spider issues).

Improved Sci-handling.

Improved timeing.

Dbox2 fixed nds in slot for 3.5 and 6mhz.

Crosscompiled for OpenWRT routers (mips). (absolutely no idea if it will ever work though <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />))

Fixed rdgd server.

Fixed NDS Skyitaly in phoenix. (we hope)

Lots of bugfixes..

 

 

v.1.04 -Public Beta:

Fixed Viaccess on Dbox (tested on 6Mhz multicam)

Added option to allow users to only access specified card. (look for changes in configs)

Added option to specify port for each card. (look for changes in configs)

Fixed segfault when some options(thats not needed on these) was missing for sci/dragon.

Changed alot of debug levels.

Fix baudrate for YES cards.

Added logging of tcp-commands.

New tcp-command: uptime.

Newcamd server close connection if user is unknown.

Fixed rare login problems.

 

v.1.03 -Public Beta:

Fixed Viaccess-init in dbox.

Fixed Seca-init.

Made carddetect faster.

Removed SID checking on irdeto/beta.

 

NB!!

Disable carddetect on dbox, it doesnt work.. none of us in the dev-team has access to one, so we

program in blind. If anyone got info on how to do carddetect on Dbox, please point us in the right

direction by posting it on boards or something like that.

 

v.1.02 -Public Beta:

Fixed Skyitaly ATR (seems they have two different ones, one has same starting bytes as nagra )

Fixed Digital ALB unknown nano.

Added missing Dbox-type in commented config.

 

NB!! We have recieved info that Newcamd Cardspider has additional checks for NDS cards, it seems that

the cards are added to the spider as normal, but the cw's wont reach the other peers (it works locally)..

In general newcamd dont support 1 single cw, so to have it 100% stable use mgcamd or evocamd.

 

v.1.01 -Public Beta:

Reached beta-stage.

Documentation should be nearly done.

 

 

7.-- Troubleshooting ------- --- -- - - -

 

There are problems?

 

 

8.-- Special Notes ------- --- -- - - -

 

USB2Serial:

Well, this is some tricky stuff..

There seems to be adapters that emulate almost 100% and works with all CAS, we have seen them in both pl2303 adapters and ftdi adapters.

And then we have the adapters that work on conax, seca, viaccess, cryptoworks, dreamcrypt, irdeto - and if your are lucky, videoguard -

or maybe only a few of them.. seems some adapters are really really slow, or just dont read/write all bytes <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

 

Infinity USB burner:

There seems to be some slight problems if the usb isnt put in before the machine is booted, you can always check manually if its detected,

just do: cat /proc/bus/usb/devices | grep "wbe" - if you get anything then all probably should go very well <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

 

Mp35 burner:

The timing on this device seems to be a little strange - works on some CAS and not on others, not much to do about it..

 

 

 

9.-- Thanks guys, You ROCK! ------- --- -- - - -

 

Much precious time has been spent on the project, remember its all about fun, not about money..

We are against all commercial cardsharing, and will do as much as we can to prevent it - without

limiting the "normal" user..

[Gast]

Tnx ben benieuwd of er ooit ook een NewCC (client) <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> uitkomt

[prutsie]

Die Hongaren zijn lekker bezig. Deze versie nog niet getest maar de eerdere versies werken stabiel, goed en snel. Zeker de mogelijkheid te connecten naar spider of Rdgd is erg gemakkelijk. Dit is eigenlijk alles wat er op dit moment mogelijk is in 1 programma.

 

Meer info en de nieuwste versies te vinden op Dreamboxworld.

 

groeten,

Peter.

newcs.mips -> NewCS binary for linux on Mips machines. (OpenWRT) (this only support phoenix as type)

 

Geinig, heb dit meen ik ooit al eens voorspeld als mogelijke feature.

 

WRT54g met ik neem aan compoort mod en dan een WRT54g compatible firmware. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Blijkbaar nu als addon voor de OpenWRT firmwares.

 

Heb zelf geen WRT router maar ben benieuwd of het werkt/test resulaten <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

[Mrbeam]

Hoe zit het met comando's ?

Bij cardserver typ ik in: telnet ip port [enter]

en dan kan ik bv de datum of users uitlezen.

Wat moet ik bij newcs invoeren en welke regel in de config bepaalt die poort.

 

2e vraag: wat is de seriele poort?

dev/sci0 en dev/sci1 zijn de ingeboude lezers.

 

Verder een zeer goede cardserver !

[top-seve]

De serieele poorten zijn ttyS0 en ttyS1.

[pepela]

Citaat:

De serieele poorten zijn ttyS0 en ttyS1.

hangt er van af welke versie van newcs je gaat gebruiken.

als je een linux-PC gebruikt als server, moet je newcs.x86 en newcs.xml.phoenix gebruiken. Dan zijn ttyS0/1 enz .... de seriele poorten. (let op: naargelang de distro kan de wijze verschillen)

mvg

[Mrbeam]

Het gaat me om de ppc versie, dus de rs232 poort van een dm5620.

ttyS0 is het iig niet.

[deeejeee]

De com poort van je Dreambox is "/dev/tts/0"

 

<node>/dev/tts/0</node>

 

 

Don't open serial poort moet je ook nog aan vinken in het dream menu.

Dan moet het goed komen <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[deeejeee]

<tcp_port>3001</tcp_port>

 

Dit is het poort nummer waar je kunt in loggen met het volgende commando:

 

telnet 10.0.0.1 3001 (enter)

 

level 0 (enter) dit stopt de log file.

 

users (enter)

 

Server port 15000:

2 User: root, online for xxx xxh xxx xxx, Ecms: ok 2 + bad 0, Emms:2, host XXXXXXXXXX

 

 

level 1 (enter) dit start de log file weer.

[Mrbeam]

Het is idd goed gekomen.

 

Hartelijk dank !

[Mrbeam]

Ook dit werkt nu. Ik krijg alleen het uitlezen van de datum nog niet voor elkaar.

[deeejeee]

De kaart gegevens zijn nog niet uit lees baar. Dit hebben we nog te goed............(beta6 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />)
