PART I
The first part is for beginners.
Installing CCcam
The CCcam archive is composed of 2 files, a bin file and a config file. In the original RAR
archive, the authors have saved the Dreambox binary file as CCcam.ppc, whilst the config file
is the same as for any version. It is suggested to rename the binary file in CCcam as it will
help make the following Telnet procedures easier.
Copy the bin file to /var/bin and set the rights (attributes) to 755. Copy the config file to
/var/etc/
We are now ready to check in details how CCcam really works, using the Telnet utility
In Windows,
Start RUN and type Telnet 192.168.1.10 (or your Dreambox IP number) and click OK
Login (root)
Now do the following.Type cd /var/bin to go to /var/bin, check whether you are in the correct
directory (for Linux ls=dir), check the file colour, the CCcam file should be green.
At the prompt, type “CCcam –dv” making sure to match the file name as well as capital
letters
The –dv command will give you the possibility to see each step that CCcam does, through an
activity log that should look like the following one
1) 16:09:26.209 CCcam: ===================================
2) 16:09:26.212 CCcam: starting CCcam 1.2.0 compiled on Jul 5 2006@21:12:46
3) 16:09:26.212 CCcam: ===================================
4) 16:09:26.276 CCcam: online using nodeId 578103ff60952939
5) 16:09:26.305 CCcam: DM70x0 detected
6) 16:09:26.307 CCcam: create 2 cam device(s)
7) 16:09:26.920 CCcam: provider num: fff830
8) 16:09:26.920 CCcam: provider key: (hier steht die abonummer)
9) 16:09:27.120 CCcam: provider num: 021c00
10) 16:09:27.121 CCcam: provider key: (hier steht die abonummer)
11) 16:09:27.215 CCcam: card added to broker with caid 500
12) 16:09:28.018 CCcam: card added to broker with caid 4a70
13) 16:09:28.072 CCcam: added 389 keys from /var/keys/SoftCam.Key
14) 16:09:28.132 CCcam: added 541 keys from /var/keys/AutoRoll.Key
15) 16:09:28.133 CCcam: static cw not found or bad
16) 16:09:28.134 CCcam: read_ignorefile: cannot open /var/keys/CCcam.ignore or not found
17) 16:09:28.135 CCcam: server started on port 12000
If you suspect something is not correct, and would like to check the ECMS answers, these will
appear directly on your DB when zapping channel. Just start a second Telnet session, type
the command ps and press Enter. The active processes will be displayed and should look like
the following example:
1: root@dm7020:~> ps
2: PID Uid VmSize Stat Command
3: 1 root 608 S init [2]
4: 2 root SWN [ksoftirqd/0]
5: 3 root SW< [events/0]
6: 4 root SW< [khelper]
7: --- extra lines removed---
8: 599 root 2100 S /var/bin/CCcam_1.2.1
9: 600 root 2100 S /var/bin/CCcam_1.2.1
Reading Log entries
4) online using nodeId 578103ff60952939
This is a unique identity number created for each server/client user upon connecting
5) create 2 cam device (s) 7020
2 CAM devices have been found.
The following lines 7) 8) and 9) display data about the subscription card provider id number.
9) provide num :021c00 is the provider number, which is Redlight/FullX
11) card added to broker with caid 500
This line identifies the CAId (Conditional Access Identification) in use to provide access to the
service, which, in this case, is Viaccess. The subscription card is identified by both the CAId
and the Provider, and therefore, in our example 0500:021c00.
Some providers use many CAId’s. This is why in our log, Redlight/FullX is also listed as
0600:021c00, where 0600 is the IRDETO CAId. It is very important to understand the system
caid/provider as it will be taken into consideration again in this tutorial
13) added 389 keys
there are 389 keys read from the static key file
15) cw not found or BAD
there are no static cw available; this does not represent a problem (optional)
16) read_ignorefile: cannot open/var/keys/CCcam.ignore or not found
this is also not important for the upcoming instructions
17) server started on port 12000
the server runs on port 12000 TCP(this is very important for your Router/Firewall settings)
Keyfiles
Unless the destination folder has been changed, by default, the key file is found in the
var/keys folder.
CCcam is using the SoftCam.key/Autoroll.key format, which is also used by other EMU
systems.
For this reason, there is no need for a purpose built key file format for this CAM. Keyfiles are
an option as CCcam works also without any of them
CCcam and cardsharing
To configurate and connect the CCcam, you need to go to the ETC folder and edit the
CCcam.cfg file.The CCcam config file itself is a little help file. Indeed, you will find many text
lines starting with #. These lines provide help to set the CCcam, and there is no need to
delete them as they are ignored by CCcam. Therefore, they can also be used to add any note
or comment.
The configuration lines can be written in any order. There is no standard order to respect.
Indeed, when started, CCcam reads the first character of each line and executes the request.
Let’s look at each line syntax now.
F: Friends
F: user1 pass1 1
C: Connect
C: server.dyndns.org 12000 user1 pass1
The C line (where C stands for connect) enables the CCcam to connect to another server
The URL or IP after C: is necessary to identify the server in the sharing network. 12000 is the
port used by the server to communicate and user1 pass1 identify the user
Note: each user is accepted only once by the server
How to connect a client to a server:
The F line launches the server, whilst the C line launches the client, and this is all you need.
Should the client wish to share its subscription cards with the server, then you need to add a
C line at the server, and an F line at the client.
Log Diagnostic
Should you wish to check whether the connections are working properly, then use the CCcam
–dv Telnet command. This option will give you the possibility to check the log and make sure
all is ok.It may be useful for beginners to do it with Telnet, and, once experienced, it may also
be done using the the automatic script found in the blue panel.
This is what the dialogue between the 2 decoders should look like
1) 11:55:06.977 CCcam: found betacrypt caid: 0x1702 ecmpid: 0x100a id: 0x0
2) 11:55:06.978 CCcam: found betacrypt caid: 0x1722 ecmpid: 0x100a id: 0x0

4) 11:55:06.978 CCcam: cam[0] set PMT for sid=a
5) 11:55:06.979 CCcam: start EMM

7) 11:55:07.061 CCcam: cam[0] ecm even nok caid:0x1722 id:0x0 pid:0x100a Premiere Kabel (19E)
tunneled Nagra (took 0.0003 seconds)
Lines 1) 2) and 3) display information about the service encryption
Pre***e is displayed with the 3 possidble CAId’s:
1702 tunnel Nagra = betacrypt for DVB-S
1722 tunnel Nagra = betacrypt for DVB-C
1801 plain Nagra (not used or only on s04 card) = unused.
The Pre**er provider is usually written with 6 digits.In this case, the service ID is 100a and
identifies Pre**er1.
Line 4) “Start EMM” marks the point where CCcam starts looking for keys
The 2 following lines list the local server replies.In this example, the replies are negative ecm
even nok caid:0x1722. This is normal as there are no cards in the receiver. The query lasted
0.0003s.
We then find the queries sent to the server:
8) 11:55:07.194 CCcam: remote ecm -> 192.168.1.3:12000 0x1702(0x000)
9) 11:55:07.331 CCcam: remote ecm <- 192.168.1.3:12000 ok (took 0.1364 seconds)
10) 11:55:07.333 CCcam: cam[0] ecm even ok caid:0x1702 id:0x0 pid:0x100a Pre***re Sat (19E)
tunneled Nagra (took 0.1383 seconds)>code<
ecm even ok caid:0x1702 means that this query has been successfully transmitted through
the LAN in 0.1383s
killall CCcam marks the end of the log
