Can I access/edit Audrey files from my PC?

I have an Audrey that I managed to get Infinity's image on. Currently I am using the built in ftp client to grab my files from my PC. (basically photos for the screensaver).

I was wondering if there is an easier way to transfer and edit text files from the Audrey but on my PC. I guess something similar to an FTP server on the Audrey.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

You can map a drive on bootup with the below command. i've having trouble using the screensaver so far though, just locks up on "loading image" might be a problem with the image. Plays mp3s thru the network fine though :)

fs-cifs -a //big_ring:192.168.1.104:/mp3 /mp3 username password

fs-cifs -a //COMPUTERNAME:IP:/SHARENAME /DIR_TO_MOUNT_LOCALLY username password

If you want to automatically mount your Windows share when Audrey boots, follow these instructions:

The file /kojak/go is called at startup. In turn it calls boot.sh (where we
try to mount our Window shares. In case there is a problem we don't want Audrey
to hang, so call boot.sh as a background process.

To do this, in /kojak/go modify the below line from

sh boot.sh

to

sh boot.sh &

Next, add your Windows mount calls to the bottom of boot.sh. Preceed the calls
with the "if_up" command to loop until the Ethernet adaptor is available. So in
/kojak/boot.sh add the following (modified for your application):

#Wait for Ethernet to go up
if_up -r 60 usbenet0
fs-cifs //SUGARSMACK:192.168.0.2:/music /music username pwd

"usbenet0" is the name of your ethernet adapter device. This may be different on your Audrey.

See the man page for fs-cifs for more details.
