ftp site

for information on accessing the ftp site, see http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_FTP_Site

I'm STILL experiencing annoying problems with the FTP - namely that it doesn't support the commonest method of changing directories, CDUP. This is just stupid, there's no reason why CDUP can't be enabled (at the moment I have to manually specify folders to go back to if I want to navigate back to the root from being in a particular subfolder!)
Also, for some reason I tried to connect to the FTP with my Hermes over 3G in Opera Mobile, specifying the username and the password inside the actual URL (xda:[email protected]) and Opera STILL asked me for a username and password to log onto the server. And then, when I typed it in, it didn't like it, and kept on asking me again and again and again... The same Error 550 Permission Denied.
The forum's been (almost) sorted; please someone go take a look at the FTP and see if these problems can be sorted! I love the irony of not being able to access the FTP from an actual HTC device 8)

What happens if you only enter the usernamen/password when Opera asks for it?

CDUP enabled... Awesome.
Re the Opera problem: same result. 550 error every time. Very curious, gotta be the way which it initiates the FTP transaction... Tried to packet sniff in promiscuous mode but I don't have wifi on my PC (getting a laptop soon but don't have it yet, so can't wifi packet sniff) and for some reason I couldn't pick up any packets coming from my PDA on the wifi network even though I'm connected via cat5 (so in theory I should see the traffic in wireshark)... I feel too ill to go messing about trying to make it work though, just thought I'd let you know it still doesn't work. Very odd.
Kudos for the CDUP enablement though.

Okay, maybe I am just stupid or something, but a LOT of the links that point to the FTA are broken. So I did a little reading and now connect with an FTP application. After doing some browsing around, most of the files are gone. What's up? Am I missing something? All I want to do is downgrade the phone (Cingular 8125).
Edit.... Okay now I read somewhere else that the roms have all been removed per a request from MS. Is this the issue and I am not really being that stupid?

a lot of files missing at Blueangle
Hi, i use to download BA rom at ftp site but now most of the roms is missing left only directory only.

Site Admin: The Black Helicopters are Coming!
I don't want to be the party pooper but I like this site and wish for it to be around for a long time:
The uploads area is again showing a bunch of full or dumped ROM images. I count no less than ten ROM dumps/updates in the Hermes directory.

CDUP enabled
CDUP enabled

Is this? correct in saying there are no admins for the Prophet, Atom or Magician FTP areas?

yes
yes, don't worry

Upload Password
Trying to log in to upload, get error when using xda or xdaupload - has something changed from what's stated in the wiki?

Is the server down?
Is the ftp server down? I can connect to Red Hat's ftp server, so I don't think the problem is on my end, but I get a server time out error trying to get to the BA ExtROM unlock and repart tools.

There's now a Blackstone upload folder, and within that is a ROM folder.

i can't get within the blackstone upload folder (error 550 failed to change dir)
Any thoughts? I put my files in the upload section in the general folder (xdaupload)
Hopefully they will get to the right section
Thx

Xda-developers.com FTP site access

Hi, I read in thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=44403 that there is an ftp site containing some ROMs. I have tried to log into it but it returns a 530 Access denied before I even get to put my password in
Is this simply not a public ftp site or am I just simple?

i have the same problem when using Opera. Try windows/internet explorer or other ftp clients

same problem occurs with internet explorer and with flashfxp

HELP...synchronize issue with microsoft exchange

I flashed LVSW WM6.0 ROM ( 3.30.0.9 version ) last night on my Hermes. After the flashing was done, the device was able to synchronize with the exchange server through my PC at the first, but it wasn't later. And the synchronizing is always failed with the exchange server through the GPRS later on. I checked the report and it reads
" Result: The server certificate on the server is not valid. Contact your Exchange Server administrator or ISP to install a valid certificate on the server."
and provides a " Support code : 0x80072F06".
This never happened on the platform of WM5.
Can anybody help on this issue?
Thanks a lot!

I had a same issue at past week.
Please change the WINCE.NLS at the \winodws by Good WINCE.NLS.
Good mean is right wince.nls same as your localized version.
Have you been installed any programs with the WINCE.NLS?
If so, I hope above information is usefull.

I'm also having a similar problem. When I connect via usb I can sync with server. When I connect wirelessly, cannot sync. Get server name error. Do you have this file?

Hi YUKI-
Thanks for your input. Actually I'm using the good wince.nls said as without the good wince.nls Chinese is not readable. But the problem is still the problem.....Thank you all the same

Taking it back to first principals (assuming you have access to the server):
- what certificate is the server using? (one from your own CA or a third party one like verisign)
- has that certificate expired?
- if using a certificate from your own CA have you installed the root certificate on your phone?
- do the address on the certificate and the one you have entered on the phone match exactly?
- what happens if you turn off the SSL requirement on the server - do you get a different error or does it work ok?
- Do you have another phone you can test with? Failing that what about using Outlook Web Access on a PC over SSL, does that work okay without certificate errors?

Hi randomelements,
1. There is not a certificate the server is using. And there is never a certificate required when I used the WM5 on my Hermes. Also my colleagues in US is using the WM6 and there is not any certificate required.
2. Turned off the SSL requirement, there is another error report reading " Your account in Microsoft Exchange Server does not have permission to synchronize with your current settings. Contact your Exchange Sever administrator." and a new support code " 0x85010004" was given.
3.a couple of days ago I used WM5 on my Hermes and there was not any problem. Before using the Hermes, I used the Magician and there was not any problem either.
It works well that using Outlook Web Access on a PC over SSL.
Well...it looks to be a big problem^_^ thank you all the same randomelements!

What version of exchange?
If 2007, the integration with WM6 is tighter than 2003 with WM5 or 6. When I set mine up I had to alter permissions on the Exch 2007 web site. There are pointers on the MS website of you search on that error code and exchange 2007. I dont have the info to hand, but can look on my system tonight.

My situation is NEVER completed any ActiveSync via USB+PC and X01HT's Wireless connection. I think thats problem does not same.
And I am currently using japanese version crossbow. if you have another language with wince.nls, does not solved your issue with my attached a file.

Check the clock on your phone. A couple of times when I flashed I forgot to change the year and had my date set in 2006, which gave me invalid or expired certificate error.

I think I've got what the problem is. I flashed the black 3.01 ROM tonight. After the flash was done, I tried the syn immediately and it succeeded via the wireless connection. But when I replaced the original wincel.nls file with the one with Chinese supported, the syn was failed and I got the same error report.
The problem is I can't use the wincel.nls file without Chiese supported. What should I do?

can't access samba share

Hi,
I want to access a samba share in my home network. I have a lan-storage device (dlink dns323, static ip 192.168.XX.XX) connected to a wlan-router.
When I activate my wlan on the xda orbit, I'm able to open web-pages and download gps-data for quick gps. Xda orbit is getting its ip via dhcp. As dns I defined the wlan-router.
So how can I access the share "folder1" at the dns323?
I tried this in totalcommander:
\\[email protected]\folder1
--> Error 53 while connection!
Similar in File Explorer:
\\[email protected]\folder1
--> Network ressource was not found or you do not have access rights.
From a desktop pc or laptop inside my home network I can connect to the share as user1. Without the [email protected] statement --> same result.
Can anyone help me?
Kind regards, hqqh

Hi,
now I installed z2 PocketLan. When I scan my network, my NAS (DNS323), wlan router and my linux server were found. But when I try to connect using group name user name and password the error message: "Network path not found." is printed. This happen when I try to connect to the NAS and the linux server (smb server is running).
I'm happy about any help.
Kind regards,
hqqh

fwiw I could only get network sharing to work when i addressed it via name ie.
\\device\sharename rather than \\ipaddress\sharename.

Hi,
thank you for your hint. I tried to connect vi Internet Explorer by device name:
"\\DLINK-EE2EBC\folder1"
But when I press ENTER, the address is substituted by "file://\\DLINK-EE2EBC\folder1" and the error "Network path not found" appears.
How can I configure my device, so that it will access the LAN and not local files?
Kind regards,
hqqh

Do you have the (Start -> Settings -> Connections ->) Network Plugin installed and configured?

I've exactly the same problem, i have an Artemis P3300 and already tried everything. Also configuring the network plugin. But the plugin won't connect to my lanbox...
When i refresh the Networkneigbourhood, my lanbos can be found, but i can't tap on it (i can by my other computers in the neigbourhood). Maybe it is a problem with the firmware of my lanbox? But under WM5 everything was accesable.

when i enter a \\network\share link in IE, it gets redirected to file explorer and a blank IE window says open with file://\\device\share in the address bar. Have you tried file explorer or total commander?
also i have no settings set on the network plugin page, isnt that for sharing out your wm?

Hi,
@chiel80: You mean it is an WM6 problem? Do you know whether it is possible to update the operating system without affecting the installed software?
@mc1: Yes it tried totalcommander and file explorer. The network plugin shows the same behavior like chiel80's device. All network devices were found, but no shared folder is available. Same in the tool called pocketlan.
I dont know what I can do. Is there anyone how can access shared folders via network?
Kind regards,

Hello,
I have the same Problem. I have tryed with PocketLAN, Resco-File-Explorer, HTC Network Plugin and Total Comander and it cames the same Problem. With Windows-Sharefolder its worked very fine. But I have Problems with my NAS-Server (Buffalo Linkstation) and my DreamBox, boths are Linux-Devices. Before I flashed my HTC Kaiser, its worked with my NAS. But after I flashed my Kaiser then the Problems has beginn. I think its a Windows Mobil 6-Problem. What can I do?

WM6 Firewall?
Hi,
I still have the problem, that I can't connect to samba shares via WLAN. I as said above, I can send pings to my linux server and I can send pings from the server to the xda orbit.
I noticed that if I connect to the samba share from e.g. another linux or windows pc, a log file is created under /var/log/samba on the server. But when I try to connect with the xda orbit, no log file will be created.
So is it possible that WM6 has a firewall, which blocks the samba ports (137-139 I think)?
I have done a port scan of the xda orbit an got the following result:

I know, if the communication was started from the xda orbit, the samba ports dont have to be open, but if the firewall has a very restrictive setup, the commuication will not be start? Just an idea.
So my question: Is there a firewall in Windows Mobile 6? If yes, how can I configure it?
Kind regards,
hqqh

Any progresses here? Struggling with the same problem here.

Hi johnpatcher,
No, there is no progress on this topic at my side ((.
Do you have this connection problem when you try to connect to a share on a linux or a windows system?
Maybe there are differences in the implementation of the samba protocol between linux and windows.
Kind regards,
hqqh

I'm trying to connect to a samba (linux) share.
It doesnt work neither with "security = user" nor with "security = share". I just get a sound, but it doesn't connect. No entries in the server log files can be found .

Hi,
I setup a connection to a winXp computer where a folder was declared as shared folder and I was able to connect to it!!!
So what is the problem? Do I have the wrong settings of the samba-server?
The ip address of my XDA Orbit is added to the list of devices which have access to the share.
Has someone established a connection between a WM6 device and a linux system?
Kind regards,
hqqh

Hi
I have the same problem on my HTC touch cruise with WM6
Using TotalCommander LAN-plugin, I get connection to all the shared folders
in the LAN, but when I want to connect to a LAN-storage, located on a USB-server (running smb-protocol) I get the storages name, but no folders or files on it.
With my elder HP Ipaq 6910 running WM5 all works perfect.
I think there must be a setting (in WM6 or HTC) that prevents WM6 from connecting to a SMB-server?
Is there anybody who can connect with WM6 to a LAN-(smb)-storage?
Thanks
Stefan

I have the same issue. My ATT-Tilt-WM6 with HTC network plugin shows all available pcs, but will only connect to actual windows machines. I've got shared Linux samba drives, and shared ibook hosted samba drives, which show up in network plugin, but it can't connect to. All pcs/ibooks/linux boxes in network can connect to each other just fine. And my other phone, a sprint 6700 with WM5, shares the ibook and linux drives just fine, I'm only having the problem with WM6.

Network access to NAS using Lobster Tunes
If you just want access to audio files? I have managed to get access to my audio files on my NAS device (Synology DS107) using Lobster Tunes.
http://lobstertunes.com
The NAS device has a media server as well as being Upnp.

There *is* a fix for browsing Linux (samba)-based shares and it involves editing a line in smb.conf on the Linux server.
BUT
I found the fix in a very obscure forum on the Internet a long time ago AND I no longer have the link!! I did fix this problem on my old Linux server but it's not currently fired up so I will have to dig it out of storage and see what I did.
This is bugging me now as I need to 'fix' my new server!

Hi!
I was struggling this issue with Kaiser. And solution came with new ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395555
Unfortunately, I can't figure out why and what is difference, but if I install any other ROM (e.g. Dutty's), I can't access samba shares. If I install the one above, I can access using TC, Resco, File Explorer and maybe others.
Hope this helps someone.
PS: I have Synology DS-207+ on the network.

OK. The correct answer is here:
Change HKLM\Comm\SecurityProviders\NTLM\LmCompatibilityLe vel to 1 from 3, not to 2 (ref: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa922895.aspx and http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa925018.aspx) as "You can also set the LmCompatibilityLevelServer value to 2 or to 3. Both of these specify that the server will only use NTLM v2. Authentication will fail if the client is not capable of NTLM v2 protocol. For more information, see Authentication Services Registry Settings".
And check to make sure HKLM\Comm\Redir\SmbSignatureMode is set to 0 (not recommended 'cos it may cause problems with windows servers), 1 or 2, but not 3 (ref: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa921092.aspx).
And you can try to set HKLM\Comm\Redir\AllowedAuthMethods to 3 to see if it makes any difference. To me, 2 works fine.
No need to modify samba configurations if you are running a recent version of samba (3.0.28 right now). Anyway, you can always try to add "use spnego = no" (maybe "client use spnego = no" or "spnego = no" as stated and/or quoted in other posts/web pages, I'm not sure of it.) to see if it makes any difference in your situation/samba version.

ftp upload login

Whole day I tried connecting to ftp so I can upload BBC 4.0 for Cavalier but it was imposible.
I could connet as ordinary user (xda:xda), but when I tried xdaupload, I got 550 error (no permision).
I 've checked with wiki but there's nothing new regarding upload login.
So, did anyone change login and password?
Thank you

Well, I don't know what happened but now I can login with xdaupload. Everything is fine, like nothing happened.
Cheers
