Hi,
This isn't very convenient at this point and we are working on improving this but for most themes its not too bad.

[li] First you would need to enable shell access to the JumpBox following the instructions provided here:
http://www.jumpbox.com/docs/enableshell
[li] Then find the download link URL of the theme tarball by right clicking on the download link and chosing "Copy Link" or "Copy Shortcut". It should look something like this:
http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/drupal/files/projects/aberdeen-5.x-1.7.tar.gz
[li] Then ssh into your JumpBox as the admin user (using whatever SSH software you may have)
[li] Now download the theme tarball to the admin home directory on the JumpBox using wget and the link you found above:

wget http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/drupal/files/projects/aberdeen-5.x-1.7.tar.gz

[li] now change directories into the theme directory

cd /var/data/drupal/themes

[li] Now you have to untar the file you downloaded earlier, it is still in the admin directory, and you HAVE to do this as root so do this, except put in your correct filename:

sudo tar -zoxvf ~/aberdeen-5.x-1.7.tar.gz

You will be asked for a password, this is still the admin users password, the same one you used to log in.
[li] Now the theme is in the theme directory and you should be able to select it in the Drupal theme administration page.

These instructions might not work for all themes. The main point is, you need to get the theme contents in a subdirectory of the /var/data/drupal/themes/ directory. Also make sure your theme works with Drupal 5.1

Good luck.

Ok, I made a little progress, but am even more confused ...

I figured out how to open SSH access for 'admin', but I still can't upload to themes because 'admin' doesn't have access. When I log in, it says use 'sudo' to do things as root, but it asks for a password that I don't know. It also says use 'man sudo_root' for help, but the man command isn't even installed! What the heck is going on? The machine is so secure you can't even copy a file to it?

I saw in a previous post, a link that was supposed to describe how to unlock 'root' access, but the link is dead...

Someone please help!

Thanks,
Greg

Hello,
I've got the drupal beta 0.9 running, but I cannot figure out how to get any access at all to log in or upload files.

If I try to log in as 'admin' it says 'you must register and then unlock your JumpBox.' Well, ok, I registered, but how do I unlock my jumpbox? I don't see anything like that anywhere. And if I can't get in, then how do I upload themes or the like?

Any help is grately appreciated!

Thanks,
Greg
