[APP] samba and inetd - telnetting into A1200

[bragon]

Attached to this topic is my archive to be unziped at the root of the /mmc/mmca1 transflash on the a1200 that enables telnet (on everyhost) and samba.
It requires that you enable usbnet by yourself and have a working loader in your .system (please refer to the other topics of this forum to achieve these goals).
The archive contains sbin/ and Myprograms/ directories.
In the sbin you have all the native inetd tcpd smbd in.telnetd aplpications and a program called tnlg.
All the binaries are taken from the a780. The only difference is that I modified the call in in.telnetd to telnetlogin to redirect it to /mmc/mmca1/sbin/tnlg though a simple sed. Thus you need to preserve the same directory structure otherwise it will not work.
All you have to do to launch samba or inetd(telnetd) is to click respectively on samba.lin or inetd.lin in MyPrograms.
Enjoy!

Since the topic is now sticky, please find attached the packaged version of the inetd and smbd daemon configured to launch telnetd and smbd for the a1200.
Note that this package is working on firmware revisions 44p but is known not to work with higher versions since some libraries are missing (I am fixing the issue...).
It requires mpkg for installation. When touching the inetd or smbd icons it simply enables/disables the daemon. The icon is used as an on and off switch.
Note that though on the icon ssh is printed it is not yet enabled. I plan to install a dropbear client/server but it is not done yet...
Compared to previous version it forces the phone to get into usbnet mode.

I am having some problems with the inetd package, I am not sure it is starting correctly. I have installed the package on my phone and usblan on my pc (adapter name Motorola_NA USB LAN LINK), but I cannot seem to connect via telnet, although I can ping the ip.

I have tried port scanning it and port 23 is not open... when I try to connect it gives the same error each time:

telnet 172.16.16.5
Connecting To 172.16.16.5...Could not open connection to the host, on port 23: Connect failed

I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions for me..

a1200 Firmware version is 44p

try connecting to 172.16.16.6

I used to own a A780 phone and I already get most of stuffs working from here - USBLan, telnet over the bluetooth, sync the phonebook with evolution in Linux and etc....

Unfortunately, it was stolen last week. And so I brought a new A1200 phone, but I still couldn't manage to get it connected to my Linux PC. My phone's firmware revisiion is 48P.

Is there anyone out there can show me how to telnet to phone from my Linux PC? I already installed MKPG and Loader package onto the phone, and I tried the telnetd and smbd packages here, but it seemed not to work. Anyway what is IP address used by phone when it switchs to USB Lan - 172.16.16.6? It looked it is different from A780.

Please help... Thanks.

How do you see the /mmc/mmca1/ directory ?
I don't see those directory when I'm connected with USB Storage
or when I try to use the a1200's file manager ... ?

In the a1200's file manager, I can navigate to the TransFlash section but in there I don't see /mmc/mmca1/

any help appreciated
thanks

the /mmc/mmca1 folder is the transflash card.

For example a file called MyFile.txt in the root of your transflash card is actually /mmc/mmca1/MyFile.txt
