Accessing files remotely via SMB over SSH - Networking

Hi all. I dont know if this is the right place to post but please bear with me.
I am using ES File Explorer and want to access my files remotely. From what Ive read SMB (Server Message Block) port would need to be forwarded on a router's firewall. Also SMB is not encrypted and so I wanted to access my files using ES File Explorer over SSH, using an app like SSHTunnel on my phone.
Is it possible to use SMB over SSH without opening SMB port? Thanks

same question here, would love to have ssh file explorer

ssh into ur ssh server and forward from any port above 1024 since thats the android restriction to 445 (samba port).Then connect to 127.0.0.1:4450 (port that i have specified as source) via ES file explorer

Tried this but can't get it to work in present day
I have done just that but I cannot get the phone to connect to the SMB share after I establish the SSH connection and forward the respective port.
I tried entering localhost:[port] in the LAN server field and I get an error message from ES file Explorer upon connecting.

Networking and Shared Files

From PC to PC, you can network a shared folder. How can I share a folder on my PPC and network it so either my mac or pc can grab files without having to use ActiveSync or the ridiculous The Missing Sync for mac.
use resco explorer
you can use resco explorer to set up a network share. then copy any files from your PPC to your network share location. Hope this works.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'll give this a try, thanks.
And, without that, for instance, with File Explorer not possible? I can 'open path' ?
I made it work
I made it kinda work. I am sure there is something wrong, but what I did actually worked. There may be enough correct info here to help:
#1 - I installed a cmd shell
#2 - using the 'net use' command:
net use \\<machine name>\<export name> <password> /user:<domain>\<user name>
#3 now authentication window comes up, and I type in my password.
#4 now I have remote access:
copy \\<machine name>\<export name>\<file name>
When I installed the "total commander" application, I noticed there is a directory now called //network, with a sub directory called <password> ( my actual password ). Inside the password directory are all the remote files. I guess "net use" works a bit differently on this platform than I expect. So I do not know what is going on, but I do have file sharing across SMB..... ;-)

[IDEA] Super Filemanger

Just an idea a filemanger that did everything here are feature list.
duplicate File remover
file recovery
file activity monitor it would check the activity by the times access with an option for like say if a file has not been accessed in a month it would automaticly deleted them with confirmation ofcourse.
wifi file transfer through a sorta wifi ftp lan type of connection would require super file manager on both devices the sending device would start a sort of server connection that would create a virtual directory called wlan - $DEVICE NAME$ . the client( the receiver) would just browse the set directory by the server device ad-hoc file transfer.
Active Sync BT WIFI USB File Access Browse Pc HDD'S through an active sync connection
The Usual File manager Feature
File Compression
Set Bluetooth File Save Location
Options to associate Filetype to programs thats all i can think of just an idea.
Oh Yeah
Fomart option SD Option
Partition option SD Option

Download problem with resco explorer from FTP

Hi,
I can't download any file from my FTP server with Resco Explorer. I can connect me to the server and see all files and paths. Also I can rename, delete and upload files. But I'm not able to download from FTP servers. Every time I get an error message, "Unknown path - unknown error". Is there a solution to solve this problem or is this a general problem? I use the HTC HD2 and Resco Explorer v8.05. But it is still the same with the old v08.01.
Thanks!

Connect to SMB Share - HELP

I'm trying to connect my TF101 to a V-Gear Landisk (SMB share) on my network.
I can connect with my PC (on the same wired network), and see the top-level MUSIC folder and many sub-folders.
I have tried ES File Explorer, CifsManager, Mount Manager, and AndSMB with essentially the same results:
I can connect and see the top-level MUSIC folder, but when I open it, I don't see any sub-folders.
In some cases, I get error messages such as "path doesn't exist" or "timeout"; sometimes I just see an empty folder.
Can anyone help me get this working?
Thanks,
Eric
