Mac Connectivity

This is a collection of OSX resources.

OSX WLAN - WLAN access; e.g. how to set up for Airport; how to get passcode from the Airport Base; Computer to Computer network

OSX USB - http://www.lucid-cake.net/osx_zaurus_usb/index_en.html

OSX SMB - http://www.lucid-cake.net/osx_zaurus_usb/index_en.html

 connect Zaurus through WLAN or USB
 in Finder: Go/Connect Server
 smb://zaurus or smb://192.168.129.201 - use 'findsmb' in a Terminal Shell to find out
 press Ok
 select "home"
 press Ok
 set domain to "WORKGROUP"
 user id=zaurus or whatever (seems to be ignored)
 password = empty
 Ok
 /home/samba opens in Finder

Note that there is a bug in Finder (or Zaurus smb server?) that it does not show the size of a directory but the size of the device. Since /home/samba is mounted on the 5MB home parition of the C3000, you can't copy larger files to the Zaurus - even onto the 4GB disk.

OSX FTP - how to use FTP

OSX SSH - how to install and use openssh

On a "naked" SL-5500 with ROM 3.10:

 get the openssh .ipk e.g. from www.killefiz.de
 access the Zaurus through [OSX SMB]
 copy the .ipk to Memory/Install_Files
 open Settings/Add Software
 install open-ssh server
 ssh to the Zaurus IP address
 you might have to answer yes to some security questions
 you might have to delete $HOME/.ssh on your host if openssh was re-installed
