Hi,
I have a server running last debian 64bits and thin clients

"HP t620 Flexible Series Thin Client"

i want to use the usb flash plugged on the client.

How to how to show on the desktop this usb?

Now, I just see the flash plugged on the server.

The thin client runs an embedded Linux

Thanks for help.

Can you give some information on the linux system running on the thin clients?
What desktop is running?
Is the automounter running on the thin clients?

Can you get root privilege?
If you can, execute
Code:

blkid
lsblk

to know the partition you want to use.
If it is /dev/sdb1, execute
Code:

mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt -o rw
ls /mnt

You should add options to mount command, such as "-o uid=1000,umask=077" for ntfs, vfat=FAT32 and "-t ntfs-3g" for ntfs.
Read the man (manual) page of mount by
Code:

man mount
You can open /mnt directory with your favorite file manager.

thanks,

the system linux embedded runs on the client.

the mount procedure, mount the device attached to the server , i want to mount the device attached to the client
here the main features:

HP ThinPro and HP Smart Zero Technology are HPs purpose-built thin client operating systems built from
Linux


Multimedia and USB redirection support
Citrix HDX MediaStream (multimedia redirection)
Citrix HDX Plug-n-Play (USB redirection)


I am interested by the last feature, usb redirection, I suppose this means redirect the client usb port to the server

any help is welcome
thanks a lot

What is "the system linux embedded"?
Is it debian?
