I'm trying to SSH into my Kindle International to change the time zone (it won't move off of GMT). I've installed USBNetwork 0.07, and received the confirmation log file in the root directory, however, no other folders are showing up.

I've tried entering the debug mode, and turning on USB networking, but the Kindle is still being recognized as a mass storage device (I'm using a Mac running Snow Leopard).

I've read something about adding an AUTO file into a certain directory. The directory doesn't yet exist on the Kindle, and I have no clue what this AUTO file is (and unfortunately, no information is given).

I'm not a noob to hacking and stuff, but also don't know a ton about command line and Linux (I have hacked my Kindle and iPhone though, and created custom font packages for the Kindle International, so can usually follow instructions well).

Thanks to anyone who can help me out!
