I'd never thought about looking at that ng code as the basis for a port. I wouldn't have thought it's even close to being a natural port, but my netgraph experience is rather limited ... Bluetooth (and BLE) support woould be *very* nice to have. It would be really slick to get my Moolitpass MiniBLE working with factotum. This has been on my todo list for a while now, using USB to connect. I need to do USB anyway to support the older versions of the authenticator hardware. --lyndon -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tdd262593f40f8018-M632ad53f8b0181d6cbd89e8e Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription

I'm not an android dev, only did very few things on android programming-wise. After testing smb, ftpd and httpd approaches for my current problem I decided to use the ftpd and httpd solutions. The httpd solution combined with a uplaod html page which contains javascript using the file and xmlhttprequest api works on both android and ios without any needs for supplementary apps as long as scripting isn't restricted. The ftpd and smb approach also works but makes additional apps on the user phone necessary while most of those apps are freely available (also perhaps potentially dangerous for the users). While for my project there are no benefits doing this its possible to write a 9p fileserver in javascript only relying on the file and xmlhttprequest using html and the js file. It would temporarily make a 9p filesystem available on the plan9 side but I'm sure the connection will be closed unexpectedly by the browsers on the phone side so this will cause more problems than bring benefits. For my project using ftpd and httpd suffice cause my users can now transfer data directly to plan9 with tools available for android and ios. Instead of opening a new thread : I'm interested in low budget thin client solutions with plan9 as an intranet server which than connects to a web server for data exchange. Currently I have tested my approch on : Fujitsu S900, Lenovo M32, Igel M340. I didn't get my hands on a HP 610 or Fujitsu S920 perhaps someone already tried this and can share his experience. Also I prepare a list of low budget USB WLan Sticks which are supported by 9legacy and 9front enhancements. Currently I mastered support for sticks with Realtek RT 8188. I ordered about 20 different models with different chipsets for testing and adjusting the drivers. If somebody knows about other chipsets working with 9legacy or 9front just telling what works would be nice. While on wait I'm intending to port the freebsd bluetooth stack (netgraph) to plan9. I would be surprised if no one started such a project till now so if someone shares this goal I would be interested in a cooperative work.

Hey, If someone does some work on native 9p stuff for android I'd really love some apk. I'm not an android dev, only did very few things on android programming-wise.

My memory seems to be faulty. David du Colombier is the original author of styxbrowser. I thought Tim did the work, but the check-ins show djc and here's David's comment on 9fans regarding this code: https://groups.google.com/g/comp.os.plan9/c/XPIrNsPoRa0/m/F5IcwjgYOPkJ Sorry about any confusion.

Hey, I personally use cifsd (on 9front) and on android totalcommander+smb extension. It works perfectly fine without any issues across all my android devices. I share some of the files with other users via tcp80 (behind tlssrv as https). On windows I use drawterm for file transfer, but that's no comparison. sirjofri -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tdd262593f40f8018-Mfff0014eef85589f7b3671b2 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription

For android, you could try to resurrect previous work by Tim Newsham based on Charles Forsyth's styx Java implementation: https://github.com/9nut/styxbrowser/tree/5ed22a9238d7333ff38bc2646aeee2b2f3501136 On Wed, Mar 16, 2022 at 9:37 PM ibrahim via 9fans <9fans@9fans.net> wrote: > > 1.

[9fans] Perhaps someone can give me an advice ...
1. My problem : I need a way to exchange images, videos and audio with smartphones, tabletts and usual computers which reside on the same wlan-router. 2. My solutions : All my solutions have in common that I used qr to generate a qr code which consists of the ip-adress and port on which to connect to plan9 running in qemu, 9vx or natively. 2.1. httpd I designed a web page which uses and XMLHttpRequest inside a script. This makes it possible to select files and transfer them to plan9. The solution works in chrome and firefox while safari sometimes causes problems due to the hard coded ip address. 2.2. ftpd I started a ftp server on plan9 which can be used by ftp clients from mobile devices which have a client app installed and this also works. 3. My question : Do you have any other suggestions how to solve this problem without making it necessary to write apps for the mobile device by only relying on standard protocols. Does anybody have any ideas or experience ? Would websockets be a better solution ? Thanks in advance. -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Tdd262593f40f8018-M4cd5fc72ff668b0a39316036 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
