In windows, I can just open up the zaurus file transfer software, and transfer files to my zaurus(for more information on the zaurus see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zaurus). I'm connecting via the USB cradle, and I've got the usb networking working under linux, I just can't figure out how to transfer files. Is there a way to do it in ssh? or does the zaurus run some sort of FTP server? I'm running Sharp ROM 3.13.

Couldn't tell you. I haven't run OZ on this machine yet. IIRC, though, Maslovsky said it was written for the Sharp ROMs. If I weren't at work I'd go chase a couple bookmarks and tell you ... maybe this evening.

Okay. Maslovsky says on his own web site: "This package has only been tested under Sharp ROM 3.10. It's not garanteed to work with other ROMs and kernels." I've got it to work on the 3.13 ROM with the "new" Cacko kernel, which is also one of Maslovsky's. (The inconvenience of having to reboot the Z just before I plug it into the cradle is balanced by the way it speeds up the operation of, e.g., kismet and the other wireless functions.) You're active on the ZUG and the OEForums, right?
I'm active on the OESF forums, I didn't know about the ZUG forums. I just flashed to OZ 3.5.4, and Now I can't get USB Networking working(can't ping the Z). Does anyone have any other suggestions?

No, OESF is the ZUG forums ... but you know the ZUG software site, the ELSI, and the two versions of the Zaurus Software INdex, so I guess you can find what you're hunting for too?

I'd say the best way to network on the OZ ROMs is wireless. I know you can't network it through a Windows box, and through a Linux box may be difficult. CF Wifi cards are easier to find than CF modem cards, or CF ethernet cards, I should imagine.
