}
This looks like my copy did not work correctly, does anyone know how I can either copy the files correctly (I used scp to move them because finder told me I did not have permissions to see all the files).
thanks,

I got it working, I just had to follow the instuctions correctly. Here is what I did (it mostly comes from an earlier post and I have updated it for TunnelBrick)
(This is for TunnelBrick as supplied by Witopia - the $40/year vpn service)
1. Install TunnelBrick.app on my mac
2. open terminal
3. cd "/Applications/TunnelBrick.app/Contents/Resources"
4. sudo chmod ugo+r openvpnstart
5. open finder and copy TunnelBrick.app from my mac to the appletv (/Users/frontrow/applications)
6. copy (from my mac) the contents of /Users/{User}/Library/openvpn to the atv /Usersfrontrow/Library/openvpn (this directory contants the key, crt and conf files for your connection)
7. ssh into the atv and run the following commands:
cd "/Users/frontrow/Applications/TunnelBrick.app/Contents/Resources"
sudo chown -R root:wheel tun.kext
sudo kextload tun.kext
sudo openvpn --config /Users/frontrow/Library/openvpn/openvpn.conf
And now it works.
I have also confirmed that my alpha version of the vpn plugin is working (both with hotspot and tunnelbrick), just going to update it so that people can have both hotspot and tunnelbrick installed at the same time and control both with out needing two versions. Will try to post the plugin today or tomorrow. (Is there a place where boxee plugins should be posted?)
thanks,
