Hi!
Sorry if this question has already been answered, i could not find a solution to my problem.
I want to access the data on my WM6 Device from another PC in the same network. I know that there are no networkshares available in WM6. But there has to be a possibility to access my data on PPC from a PC over Wifi. I know that i could do it vice versa, but i want to access my whole device via network. does anybody know a solution? Maybe with the help of a ftp software on my device? Thanks in advance!
Push.
No ideas??
Yeah, I was looking for exactly this, but found nothing.
I would also like to know if it is possible to create Shares.
ok, i found a solution.
use a ftp-server program on your ppc and you can access your whole device on an pc in the same network. i use the freeware "Mocha ftp server" for this. you can deny anonymous access and create useraccounts with password for secure and protected access.
hope this helps some people

I had a JasJar and before it PDA2k and with both I could not mount network shares on my local home network. I write the address in file explorer in the format \\10.0.0.23\share where the share share does not even have a password and is share to everybody and the phone can not recognize the share.
It does see other devices on the local netword for example it can browse the Internet and access my routers web based admin but not the share.
Other computers on my home network can access the share.\
I heard there are programs that help in doing this, but is there no direct or free way to do this?
Try using Resco File Explorer in which you will be able to map shared network folders and then you can access them from File Explorer directly, it even support possword protected shared items.
Im using the standard file explorer, it works fine. I start by typing \\P4 which eventually shows my shares, and then I can navigate as I want.

still can not connect to share
Nasdaq, which version of windows do do you have the share on. Are there any special settings?
It gives me "network path was not found" always then "Network resource can not be found or you do not have the permission to access the network".
The share has no password, on windows it just logs me in without any further input.
I am using the openpath in the file explorer.
May be you need to check once again about IP Addresses and Default Gateway settings, which is not allowing you to connect with your LAN.
--Universal can't connect to Windows Server 2003--
Cant map to a Windows 2003 Server share? Is it also a Domain Controller? Check the server for
start / programs / administraton tools / Domain Controller Security Policy
Then check Local Policies / Security Options :
Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (always)
change to disabled
that will stop your universal from accessing a share normal windows machines can access.,.
Access shares problem is on Windows XP
This problem is on WindowsXP share not on windows server.
Also the imate can access the Internet and even the administration of the router, so I gues it has full TCP/IP abililty.
Are there any workgroup settings that I need to do?
Sorry for not getting back earlier, my share is on an XP sp1 box.
What I would REALLY like to do is browse my Exec over wifi from my PC. :?

Anyone got any other advice on this one?
Can't access my network shares with //192.168.0.1/ etc either?
Thanks

I can't access shares by using the IP, I have to use the name of the machine: \\azhad instead of \\10.168.2.158

Try this up
I had the same problem accessing network shares on my Universal...
I was also typing IP address in Resco Explorer and it was not working.
But I could make it work using the computer name. I have no idea why it work whil with basic ip address it couldn't, but at least I am able to browse my computer folder and play video files.
So try using "\\computername\share" to see if it's working.
forrest.
I tried
I tried doing that, using the computer name. It takes more time to tell me that it can not access the server.
I think that to resolve the name of the computer it needs a wins server, is that correct?
Could it also be in your network settings if you set your network as internet or connects to work?
to Jatt
Jatt theoretically you should be able to create a network share on any computer on your network and be able to access it on your phone. This is really handy since you would not need to activesync to exchange files.
But note that for JasJar/Exec or any WM5 device you can not sync over the network just share files.
To ehabh
Thanks for trying to help me out but can u tell me how do i create a network share on my computer? please
Thanks again
Same problem
I've got the same problem. I can connect to the internet through my router but for the life of me I can't connect to the shared on my PC (XP SP2). I know it's not a problem with my EXEC because I can connect to my PC at work. I can see my PC in the device list but not connect to it.
The first time I tried to connect using Resco Explorer 05 I managed to ge the screen asking for log-on details, but never got any further as it said my passwork was incorrect. Since then I've never managed to get the log-on screen back only an error say the network resource was unavailable.
I've ran the XP network set-up wizard more times than I can count, changed my PC settings manually but still had no luck. Has no one figured out what we're doing wrong?
I didn't really understand the machine name issue as I don't have any WINS or DNS server at home... But for me it worked...
Anyway you should try to temporarily disable your personnal firewall (On the computer you're trying to access) just to see if it is not blocking network traffic for the windows sharing.
If it is the problem, then you have to configure your firwall to stop blocking this traffic...
Sorry, but it's all I know...

Hi All,
Its been a mystery to get this working. I just upgraded my Cingular 8125 to the officieal AKU 2.2 Rom from Cingular. Before that i tried a couple of products like V-Mobile Network browser, NetUse, Pockt Hosts etc and nothing helped me access my laptop from my Cingular 8125. Then i was trying out FilePoint Exchange and it works but doesn't allow two way transfer of iles as i wanted. Then i uninstalled it from my Laptop & PDA and BOOOOM.. I could setup File shares using Resco File Explorer and V-Mobile network Brower on my Wizard. I didn't do anything different.
Now after upgrading to the new ROM the sharing no longer works. I have tried the same trick on installing and uninstalling filepoint but of no use. Has anyone been able to get this working.
My laptop has a Default workgroup and using NetUse and V-Mobile Network Explorer i have made that workgroup as the default workgroup of wizard. Also using pockt hosts i have setup the Hostname and IP mapping. Still it doesn't work. Can someone please help me please please please......
Cheers

well no neo replied but i was able to figure it out on my own.. lemme know if someone needs it..
Cheers
Zobie
I don't NEED it right this second, but it would be nice to know in case I do in the future. Could you tell us what you did?
Well you need a couple of programs as i mentioned in my 1st post. After that you need to change the settings on your card to "Connect to Work instead of internet". also please be sure there are no proxy settings on your Connection settings. Do add your laptop as a host with hostname & ip mapping. I thik you shouldn't have any problems loking up your laptop with Resco explorer or Netuse.

Hi, My phone (O2 Mini S) connects to my laptop and I can get an IP address, now I want to know can I browse files on my laptop without any 3rd party software? Also is it possible to browse the net, making my laptop as an access point? Thanks.
Hi,
Found lots of interesting little programs for my Windows Mobile phone recently, but one thing I can't find.
I want to be able to access the files on my phone from the network, via wifi (as a normal file share). I know it can be done the other way around, ie I can see files on the network from the phone, but haven't found anything to make the phone share its own files.
Is this possible? Can't see any particular reason why not - networking obviously works the other way, I know you can get http and ftp servers for the phone. Am I just missing something?
If there isn't a program out there that can do it, is it because no one's found a use for it and so not developed it, or is there a technical reason why it can't be done?
Any help much appreciated!

Mocha FTP server
All,
I have setup a WiFi router on my PDA and want to connect a WiFi camera to it. When pictures are taken I want to be able to store them on the PDA.
I have successfully got two PDA's connected by the router.
I can do this with a laptop but I need to be able to map some form of drive to my PDA.
Can I do this?
Thanks,
Sam
install resco explorer and map a network drive,within resco you should then be able to see the drive via wifi.
Thanks for your suggestion but I think that this is going the other way than I need to go.
I may have found my solution as I can run an FTP server on the PDA and the camera can do an autosend via FTP client to the IP of the PDA FTP server.
Not ideal but at least it is a start.
The Rescoe approach I thought would only allow me to connect TO a destination and not share my Storage Card out. Am I right?
Thanks for taking the time and interest, I was beginning to despair that anyone would respond at all,
Kind Regards,
Sam.
The only thing I have found so far is the FTP route.
I was using mocha FTP server and it's default set for anonymous login.

I haven't found anything other than that.

For what it's worth you are correct about this.
Does anyone knows can i send and recieve files over wifi like the iphone. My phone is a htc prophet.
not generic way iphones are very closed platforms
if you can find a program which does it and is available for both iphones and wm then yes
otherwise you can use dropbox or livedrive or gmail and using the internet as middle station
so does anyone knows where to find such a program.
Google it and you will gett the path
do you mean datatransfer over wifi without being connected to the internet?
yes to send files from one phone to other over wifi without being connected to internet
WiFi Remote Access will solve your purpose.

no this is from ppc to pc, we want to transfer files from ppc to ppc!!

I think you can...
Lets assume, PPC1 has been configured with WiFi Remote Access.
Create an ad-hoc Open WiFi network from PPC2.
Connect PPC1 to this network.
Turn on WiFi Remote Access.
The PPC1 behaves as a server.
Open a Browser on PPC2.
Try opening the server address (as displayed on WiFi Remote Access Interface on PPC1. This is device specific).
A page should open.
Perform the password authentication on both devices, as will be prompted.
Try downloading the file from yor PPC1, the way you download usually through your browser on PPC2.
Its technically possible.
I don't have two PPCs with me to try this.
But, technically speaking, it should run flawless.
But, again you need lots of RAM on both the devices, specially on PPC2.
But, you must have a bit experience to use it properly.
And, only using it can help you know it!!!
Isn't that?
So please Use it, then reply back.
And, if this works, it can be used as a two-way protocol also.
Best of Luck guys.
today i tried it and it works perfect i transfer files much more faster than with bluetooth thanks for your help
