wm5 file sharing

Does anybody know if you can share files or folders on your Universal so they can be viewed from another computer on a wifi network?
I understand how to view / change files on your pc hard drive from your universal, but not the other way around. Thanks for anyone's help.

Resco File Explorer has this function..
Iv'e allso seen it in other programs, but I don't remember any other names right now..

Thanks for the prompt reply.

You can view shared folders on the network (wireless) with Total Commander too, but I have not yet managed to view MDA Pro files from my PC..... guess just need to know how to approach it.....it doesn't show up in my network on the PC

Hello,
I used Resco Explorer but I couldn't find any option to allow you to share a folder on your PocketPC.
I am wondering if we can share PocketPC's folders so that we can access them from desktop/laptop ?
Thanks!

You can only view the shares of other computers. WM5 doesn't have the options to actually share folders for itself.

File sharing thru FTP?
Never tried any of them myself, but have seen a few FTP Server apps available for the PPC.
Couldn't you set up an FTP server on your Uni, then connect to it that way?

How to share a map or get access to one? +FTP +Webserver ?

Ok,
How should I do to "Share" an dir on my Wizard so a computer on the LAN can access it with \\myipadress\share ?
And how do I get access to a share from an other computer on the LAN?
And is there any good apps that let me run a webserver & ftp server on my Wizard?
Thanks!

i dont think you can share folders on your wizard and connect from a PC.
You can connect to shares on your PC "from" your wizard though over Wifi. You can easily do it using resco file explorer, just make sure your wizard has an ip address from your wireless router.

You can use ShareIt FTP as an FTP server on your pocketpc.

If tou want to share via HTML, get PicoWebServer, it is free.

View folders on the Pocket PC via LAN

hey.
on my Dopod, how do i enable my other computers to view folders and files on the pocket pc ???
what ip and settings do i need to do ??
i can view files and folders from the dopod but how do i view it from my pc ????
cheers

Do you want network shares, or just file level access?
Personally I'd run an FTP server on your PDA and connect through.

Agree....
I run an FTP server on the PPC when I need to access quickly from the desktop. That works great.

how do i do that ???

Google for Freefloat FTP Server, I think it will help. I was searching for the access too, and it helped so good luck.
By the way, its freeware so wont be hard to find.

View Pocket from PC networked???

Is is possible to watch the folders from the PC that i have in the pocket if it is wifi connected?. As a network drive or something similar. I know that i can see the PC from the pocket but y i want the pocket from PC. Obviously activeSync is not connected an d i don't want. Unless somebody has discover how to connect it via WIFI ;-) on WM6.

Isnt Total Commander a Pocket PC Application? The question was about viewing the Pocket PC's files from the PC.
And BTW nobody should be bothering with Total Commander.Just use Resco Explorer. Its a much better program.

Total Commander = free
Resco Explorer = $30.00

sigh, you guys, he does NOT need a file explorer on his pocketpc. he wants to see the files, that are on the ppc, on his desktop pc. also, lordwin, please be more specific next time when you make a post, like instead of just saying "pocket" to describe your pda, you could have used anything like "phone", "pda", "ppc", "pocketpc", or whatever. it is difficult to understand your post and thus difficult to help answer the question you have.
Anyway, from what i can understand from your post, the only solution is to have your phone connected via Activesync, and in the Activesync window (on the desktop pc), click the "Explore" button. you'll then be viewing the contents of your pocketpc.

I am in the same boat. I am looking for a way to map my Windows Mobile device as a network drive on my LAN when it is connected via WiFi.
Nobody knows of an app to do this?

A very simple way is to run a FTP server on your pocketpc, like the free mochaftp, and then set your WIFI router up so your pocketpc will always have a fixed IP number.
Then a simple desktop ftp shortcut should take your desktop explorer to your pocketpc. The nice thing about Mochaftp is that the root of your PDA is also the root of the ftp site, so you can copy to your memory cards as easily as anywhere else.

Sweet! Thanx for posting that

WiFi between 2 PDA

hi
can anyone tell me how can i send files between 2 pda devices over Wifi?
i already know how to transfer files between a computer and my pda ,because i can enable file sharing on windows pc very easy and it is not a problem.
The real problem is how to enable file sharing on a Folder ON MY PPC DEVICE (WIN 6)?
Thanks in advance

ok
i think my question is so hard on you otherwise at least tell me it is not possible

You can do this via bluetooth.
As for wifi, try wmwifirouter

Not work
this software did not help me in transferring files , it only allow me to share my 3g connectiom

I Think It Seem Impossible

some time ago i found a ftp server for ppc
with that you should be able to host the files on the ftp server and download it from the other ppc with an ftp client

but this will need internet access which is not always there

i would also like to do this, transfering files over bluetooth is so sloooooow, anyboby know if it is possible?

It's doable and it has been implemented successfully.
1. create a new pc-to-pc (adhoc) connection on two ppcs with the same name and set both the connctions on the two ppcs to this mode.
2. Set the configurations of the wireless network card. IP: 192.168.0.x, subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Now the two devices can see earch other in all wireless networks. Connect them. What you need next is server programs to provide file sharing/transfering service.
3. Install wmftp on one ppc, and set up account/password/port...
4. Now the second ppc should be able to co share files on the first via ftp service.
