Yes, you copied and pasted the command from the email.  It copied the
mythconverg_restore.pl command as an HTML link.  In the email, it is a link.

Copy this line instead:

/usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_restore.pl --change_hostname
--old_hostname="daryl-A780L3C" --new_hostname="TriMyth"

What I did was to copy your line into a text editor, and then recopied the
line into this email, deleting the <http://> crapola link.  I added the
full path for mythconverg_restore.pl which I got from a Mythtbuntu system.
It should work for you.

Good luck,
Jerry
