You can add the "File system for Windows" service to the files app and then use your domain credentials with it to specific shares. Worked fine on my home network with shares being served by FreeNAS and a couple Windows 10 systems. I have not tried at my office as of yet as we segregate BYOD on it's own network.
There is another service called "Network File Share for Chrome OS" that is supposed to do the same type of sharing but I could not get it to work.

Hi all,
I know we can connect to the internet using desktop connectivity with ActiveSync.
Now, I want to develop some simple WAP application and place it in my http://localhost (desktop IIS) for testing purpose. How can I browse it this site from my xda?
Anyone can help? TIA.
try http://<ip-number of Desktop PC>
It doesn't work at all. Beside, I use dial-up connection in my desktop, so the desktop doesn't have any ip before connecting to the internet, and I want to develop the application offline.
I tried to assign permanent ip address to my desktop in without connecting and it still doesn't work.
internal network
I doubt you have networked computers but here goes...
If you have a network card in your PC for networking. Then you have an IP address with this. normally "192.168.???.???" so you could use that.
Hope this may be of help ..
or http://127.0.0.1
You will need to be connected to the internet on your PC before you try to browse, or you will need to configure internet connection sharing while your xda is cradled for it to work.
Though I can't test this (no webserver running), it's gotta work:
Put your XDA in the cradle, and the go in VXutil and go to info. There, under the adapter called "Serial on USB," you should see some IP config info. The "Default Gateway" should be the IP of your machine (as your XDA sees it).
Just for kicks, mine turns out to be 192.168.55.100
I've tries http://127.0.0.1 but since my desktop computer is not network and I don't have any ethernet card installed, I cannot assign IP address to this machine?
What is Vxutil anyway?
Thanks.

Is there a way to add my TItan to my home network via Wifi (not 3g) so I can access shared files on my PC? And vice-versa?
Turn on wifi and connect to your home network...
Not sure if there is software that supports Windows' file sharing though. You might have to use something like FTP instead.
The titan has built in wi-fi... you can connect it to your network that way.
If you wish to access files on your PC, you'll need an application capable of doing that. I dont think the built in file explorer does it. I use resco file explorer. There is an option to map network drives. I find that once you enable wi-fi and try to connect to your PC it takes 60 seconds, and is pretty fast after that.
I know you can also use activesync to connect to your device over the wireless. this should get you the functionality fo connecting to your device from the PC.
Edit::
I had to use pocket hosts to make my device talk to my PC.. and it was tricky to setup. This was another device with Windows mobile 2003 on it though... havent tried with WM6.1.. Maybe it got easier.
Install the attached cab file. Add any shared folders from your home computers onto your Titan. Add network shared folders from Start | Settings | Connections | Network Plugin.
This will let you access your network files on your phone. Not sure about the other way around. You can try \\your.wifi.phone.ip\program files\ to see if you access your phone's folders through your home computers.
Not at home right now, so can't test the home computer to phone mapping - let me know if this does work for you.

I keep getting a "Map Drive failed" error.
Here's my settings:
Remote Path: \\ASUS-F3JM\Public
Local Name: Public
When I click "Map Drive" I get the error. Any ideas?
I was thinking it had to do with Domain/Workgroup settings on the phone. How do you specify those? However, when in the settings of HTC Network Plugin, I can browse to Network Neighborhood--> ASUS-F3JM, but there's no folders showing up under my computer. I already checked and made sure sharing is on on the laptop (it shares just fine with the other pc's on the network).
ps - i'm using Vista Business 64bit on the laptop
Some more history - this used to work pretty well under WinMo6.0, but was causing the below error on occasion in 6.1, and also on the TouchPro. I always have a FTP server (http://filezilla-project.org/) running on all my machines at home, and end up using a browser (opera mini) to connect to my home drives via the ftp method. Works well if you are downloading off the home machines.
I haven't found a decent ftp client for winmo that allows true add/delete files across both connecting systems.

Yeah, I have the latest version of dcd's ROM, obviously using WinMo6.1, so maybe I'll have to try the ftp thing when I get a free minute.
As far as I know Resco File Explorer will allow you to browse FTPs as if they are local files and Mocha FTP is freeeware now (it is an FTP server for Windows Mobile) so you can use that to copy files to you phone from other computers.

I use Resco File Explorer to access Shares on my Home PC's via my WiFi Lan. It works very well. It can save links with user names and passwords so I can just turn on the WiFi and make a quick connection.
A follow-up: I had the fortunate experience of having to hard reset my Sprint TP, and went through the process of installing the HTC Network cab listed above. Mapping a shared drive directly, without going through the browse feature failed.
However, it did work, when I browsed to the machine, selected the shared folder, and provided the correct login credentials (domain information not required - at least in my case, as all machines are in the default: Workgroup).

its says
Cannot connect. Likely reasons are:
1. Specified computer name or ip does not exist.
2. A network error occurred while establishing the connection.
Are you sure your computer and PDA is in same network? and can talk to each other?
Try pinging from and to computer.
Are you trying to RD to a computer on your same local network or across the internet? Either way, you should make sure your software firewall on your target computer is allowing the Remote Desktop connections through. That would be opening port 3389.
Also, you said you have Windows Vista. Make sure that you have allowed RD on that computer. Right Click My Computer in the Start Menu and go to Properties. Click on Advanced system settings link when the System dialog box pops up. Then click on the Remote tab when the System Properties box pops up. Make sure you have selected the middle option.
start/run/system/remote settings/ check 2nd option under remote desktop
input your network in your phone. Connect to it. (turn on wifi please)
Make exception in your firewall (windows , norton , avg whatever)
put ip of computer you want to connect to in computer
user name is what you see when you click start and look up
password is if you have one to log on to windows . Not everyone does .
There is one more step if you don't have UPnP enabled. You would have to forward ports 3389 open to conncet. Thats ONLY if you don't have UPnP enabled on your router.
Also
Just to add to the previous post, also make sure that you have XP PROFFESIONAL or VISTA PRO or ULTIMATE as the other versions of Windows do not have/support Remote Desktop Connections.
I cant connect nor find my samba network drive from Android whatsover... I have tried using different apps (ES File Explorer, AndroXplorer and AndSMB), but none of them are able to connect nor to find my shared folders....
On the android client side, I am using anonymous login and I have tried using both the ip address of the samba server in the hostname field and the hostname itself. I also tried with the domain set or empty. I have a Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.2.1
On the server side, I have the following configuration ( add V0BRW3vK to pastebin address -> sorry I cant post links) and I can access it through windows, ubuntu and even through my playstation =D But not with my android device... Therefore, I dont think it is a server issue (unless if Android connects in a different way).
It is also perhaps worth mentioning that my samba server has a static IP and it is not on the DHCP list of the router. However, Im not sure if this should influence something as I'm even trying to access it directly through its IP.
Is there something I need to do in the android device beforehand in order to connect to the network drive? Any hints of what could be going wrong? Most of the issues, I read about it seem to handled in my config and have been discarded due to the fact that I can connect to the shared folder with other devices. The only other thing that comes to my mind now is to either find an open source application that connects to a samba shared folder and run it with logging (and get more info about it), or to develop one =S
Use this tutorial, worked for me:
http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/ta...roid-to-windows-and-samba-shared-directories/
I've done it without success.
The phone does not see the networked pc (fig C of the tutorial) and even after filling the details (fig D), I cant see the shared folder.
problem with port
it was actually something related to the ports. I had some conflicting rules on my firewall which I think it was allowing just TCP and on ipv4 local ips on the 445 port, and denying the rest. After I got a cleaner port filtering configuration it worked.
hello lads, I am interested in making Android application that can be use as VPN server, any tips where I can start from ? Is it possible ? I have not see any good topic about this in net
I just wonder why you consider an Android app as a VPN server.
Is it just a portal for a specific LAN? Or do you need a general VPN server for encrypted internet connections?
Even if you can implement basic functions of this VPN server, don't you worry about its concurrent & load capacity as a 'server'? ......
Its definitely possible but you'll have to likely root the phone first.
I turned a rooted Android phone into a VPN server by using the Linux Deploy app and UNIX tools "busy box app" then running CentOS on Linux Deploy. I installed SoftEther VPN Server on CentOS through SSH on the phone.
I wrote about it in a forum. If you google "Turn a flashed to verizon phone into vpn server" it will come up in Aspkin forum and you can see me work through it.
This way is 100% free and SoftEther will tunnel straight through a firewall using port 443 unlike any paid app so you can leave the phone hidden anywhere connected to WiFi and as long as you use SoftEther Client and the DNS host name to connect to the server. It wont work if you use a openVPN or L2TP/IPsec client without opening ports on the router of the wifi connection, or the server IP address (which would be a local ip if connected to wifi hidden somewhere).

Thank you for your reply. I just want to make a VPN server that uses a mobile network and accepts connection from 1 device(concurrent or load capacity or encryption does not matter). It is a small part of my application and not for commercial use. so, everything is possible, to root a device or another way to do my goal.
