Awesome. However, for me it only shows a static image (whatever was on the screen at the time of connection). I have to restart the vnc session to get a refresh. I'm connecting via Mac OS X 10.6 via Finder's "Connect to Server" menu function: vnc://appletv.local It Works!

I'm using Apple TV software v.3.0.2 SSH works fine, and I can upload files etc. I can't seem to find any obvious way of finding out whether VNC is running on the AppleTV Hi there,

very clear and easy to follow the instructions – the only problem i have is that when I go to connect via Chicken of the VNC, I get the following message:

connection refused: connect ()

I’ve tried working through the process a couple of times, including entering the password in caps and lower case.

I’m using Apple TV software v.3.0.2

SSH works fine, and I can upload files etc.

I can’t seem to find any obvious way of finding out whether VNC is running on the AppleTV

Cheers, nice guide tho! Tnx Hiya, just picking up what I think is a typo… since you’ve done this:
SFTP/FTP/SCP the file to the DOCUMENTS directory in /Users/frontrow/ on the Apple TV

Shouldn’t the following line be…?

sudo cp /Users/frontrow/DOCUMENTS/com.OSXvnc.plist /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/

Capitals used for clarity only. Cheers, nice guide tho! Tnx
