on my mac, i use macFuse to mount my web host account as a local drive. i ask this so when i ssh and edit a file over a slow connection, i wont have to wait for the lag...i can just make my updates to the file and when finish, upload it back to the server.

if you run ssh, use scp to copy the file back and forth. install openssh on your 770/n800.

if you are running samba/windows file and print services, check out the samba client for the 770 and cifs for the n800

find cifs.ko ( http://penguinbait.com/cifs.ko )

insmod cifs.ko

mount -t cifs //192.168.0.1/share /mnt/share -o username=NAME,password=PASS

now remote share in mounted in /mnt/share


The directory you want to mount it to must exist. have fun!
