Sure it can be done. Don't follow any wizzard, just do it manually
I am trying to connect my windows XP computer to the HDD in my DM7020 in explorer and not using FTP.
Can this be done as I have had no luck yet

Yes
In windows explorer go to the toolbar & click TOOLS -> MAP NETWORK DRIVE
In the mapping dialog box, look to the bottom & you will see "sign up for online storage or connect to a network server"
Click that bottom link
for the address, use ftp://root@192.168.0.220/media/hdd/ (and of course change the box IP to match yours)
Reality is an invention of my imagination.

Hi Moof,
Ive found the simplest way to connect the dreambox hdd to your network is to install the samba client on your dream, then you can simply connect to its hdd as a standard network drive. That way its just mapped as another drive for you to record and the transfer to pc to remove commercials etc and record streams to pc.
Hope this helps
Darren

Erm, but perhaps I am missing something also, Samba server is already installed in the PLi image, so you should be able to map to \\dreamboxip\harddisk which will point to the /hdd.
The samba share doesn't ask for username/password and mounts you in as root.
If you want to make changes edit /etc/samba/smb.conf and add in more shares as you need.
Or are we talking about something else?
Thanks for all the info. I will give it another go tonight
