Can't download Win orbiter software from latest 0810 core snapshot install

I installed the latest 0810 snapshot and setup OK, but from when I access the core via the web admin and click on any of the  "Download Windows Software for Orbiters" links they all download a zero byte file. I also tried to netboot a PC from the dcerouter network but it looks like the files weren't found. I did run the /usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_CreateTBZ.sh
manually and it seemed to run without problems. Did I miss a step somewhere?

thanks!

Blaine,
The Windows Orbiter isn't built at the moment, so you will get a zero byte file when you try to download. If you search the forums I think someone has a link to the install elsewhere.

What does the screen display on the PC you are trying to netboot?

You could run the Web Orbiter 2.0 under Windows using Firefox or Google Chrome - see the Wiki here for info; http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Touch_Orbiter_-_for_the_CUWIN3500_in-wall_Touch_Panel

Alternatively I expect there will be a port of the Touch Orbiter for Windows fairly soon. See the Wiki here for info; http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Touch_Orbiter_-_for_the_CUWIN3500_in-wall_Touch_Panel

All the best
