| SpeedEvil | You mean you want to when ypi plug the n900 in - have it appear as if the network share is inside mydocs? | 18:31 |
| Grownseed | well not necessarily in mydocs, but i basically want to be able to create "mass storage" which would make network shares available | 18:32 |
| SpeedEvil | You basically can't. | 18:32 |
| SpeedEvil | Well - you can. | 18:32 |
| SpeedEvil | But it's a hideously nasty hack. | 18:32 |
| SpeedEvil | What you'd need to do. | 18:32 |
| SpeedEvil | Mount the share - scan it for all filenames and sizes. | 18:32 |
| SpeedEvil | Now, build a fake FAT filesystem, with all these files in. | 18:33 |
| SpeedEvil | Now, let the system at the other side mount it. | 18:33 |
| Grownseed | what do you mean by "build a fake FAT filesystem"? | 18:33 |
| SpeedEvil | Now - when the system you've plugged it into accesses block #19338149 - the fake filesystem layer looks up, and finds that's bytes 4096-8129 of c:\win32\whatever.sys - and reads those bytes, and returns it. | 18:34 |
| SpeedEvil | When you plug in your n900 - it is acting like a dumb disk drive. | 18:34 |
| SpeedEvil | It's not a 'networked filesystem' like NFS or samba. | 18:34 |
| SpeedEvil | If you want to expose external shares - you need to make it appear to the host like you've plugged in a hard disk containing all of those files. | 18:35 |
| Grownseed | ok i get the idea | 18:35 |
| SpeedEvil | As far as I'm aware this layer has not been written. | 18:35 |
| Grownseed | and would it not be possible to make some sort of "USB server" (i know it's probably the wrong terminology) that would behave like mass storage but in fact serve the mounted shares? | 18:36 |
| SpeedEvil | Yes. | 18:39 |
| SpeedEvil | It has issues - if the remote filesystem that's mounted has any of the files change by the far side - the best you can do to signal this is a disk error. | 18:39 |
| Grownseed | fair enough, thanks a lot for your input SpeedEvil | 18:40 |
| SpeedEvil | np | 18:40 |
| SpeedEvil | I don't know if there are any 'NAS' like devices windows will mount in other than block mode by derfault. | 18:40 |
| SpeedEvil | If there are, you could emulate them in a gadget driver. | 18:41 |
| Grownseed | apparently the HSTI stick doesn't update the contents of the mounted shares dynamically, it has to be restarted so i suppose this has to do with the 'disk error' issue you mentioned | 18:41 |
| SpeedEvil | yeah. | 18:41 |
