I am trying to test the realtime priority of my FE machine. VNC is far
too slow over my available link, but ssh works great. I activated the FE
telnet interface and am attempting to change to watching a recording.
The FE gives me an error when I try start a recording, but the error
does not make sense. Can anyone give me the sequence of commands to
start a recording through the telnet interface?
$ telnet 127.0.0.1 6546
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
