PC Connectivity

Maemo PC Connectivity provides tools to simplify setting up of communication between the Tablet and the PC at two parts:

- Connection setup: To configure a TCP/IP connection based on different mechanisms (USB, Bluetooth, WLAN) and different operating systems (Linux, Mac OS and Windows)

- Communication tools: remote shell (SSH, SBRSH), secure remote copy (SCP), mounting file systems (SSHFS, NFS, SMB)

Configure SSHFS

SSHFS (SSH FileSystem) allows you to access the Tablet's file system from a mount on the host PC.

If you want to test mounting of the Tablet file system, enter commands like this (it's your choice how much to see, or where to mount):

~ $ mkdir -p ~/tablet
~ $ sudo sshfs user@192.168.2.15:/ ~/tablet -o rw,allow_other,nonempty
user@192.168.2.15's password:

Note that sshfs is a user file system so you cannot use "mount" directly.

Use "sudo umount ~/tablet" to unmount.
