So, I have started toying around with my AppleTV and realized I wanted to make it a bit more sane for my environment.<\/p>\n

1- Make it possible to ssh in to your AppleTV. You can do this with atvusb-creator\/<\/a> (You can find various guides on how to do this online)<\/p>\n

2- ssh appletv.local -l frontrow<\/p>\n

3- sudo tcsh<\/p>\n

I have a slower internet connection at home so desire to run all my web requests via my proxy-cache. The settings are hidden in \/Library\/Preferences\/SystemConfiguration\/preferences.plist . I went ahead and copied the file and made a backup (always a good idea!) then performed a few edits, replacing the section that reads Proxies with the following (naturally updating my IP address accordingly).<\/p>\n

\t\t\t<key>Proxies<\/key>\r\n\t\t\t<dict>\r\n\t\t\t<key>AppleProxyConfigurationSelected<\/key>\r\n\t\t\t<integer>2<\/integer>\r\n\t\t\t<key>FTPPassive<\/key>\r\n\t\t\t<integer>1<\/integer>\r\n\t\t\t<key>HTTPEnable<\/key>\r\n\t\t\t<integer>1<\/integer>\r\n\t\t\t<key>HTTPPort<\/key>\r\n\t\t\t<integer>3128<\/integer>\r\n\t\t\t<key>HTTPProxy<\/key>\r\n\t\t\t<string>IP.ADD.RE.SS<\/string>\r\n\t\t\t<\/dict><\/pre>\n
Hope these things help you out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
