CIFS.ko
MD4.ko
With the compiled modules we will get the well-known great network features:
cifs.ko & md4.ko when loaded allow cifs (aka samba, windows) network shares to be mounted and viewable as local media.
Then we could mount-points to our samba-shared NAS ... Perfect for our DX and all music lovers with music on a smb-share.

I processed the insmod (from my low-level point of knowledgle) with the app mountManager and cifsManager.
From the apps I get the feedback "share sucessfully mounted"
But ...
opening mount-point results in an empty folder.
I can not navigate or see my samba-shared path or folder.
When opening the mount-point in ESfileexplorer from mountManager the folder is empty,
returning to mountManager I see a grey mountPoint.
Has mountManager lost the mount point ?
Does someone have an idea how to process it sucessfully ?
Something about permissions ?
What is a possible mount-point path, is
/storage/sdcard0/cifs/music
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
ok ?
Sorry for posting similar things two times ...
Once I thought the modules are only for the mySENSEDX+RC3.0,
but perhaps they are possible for all similar ROMs.
Anyway ... the compiling from prototype-U is the best thing for my Desire X I have seen for many weeks,
(thanks again), so lets get the samba-shares work sucessfully.
Any ReiserFS support for kernel models ?
I can't find any source code so far ...
Really want that so

@prototype-U,
today I spent about 4 hours with the new modules for our D :cyclops:X.

The insmod was sucessfully and works without problems.

So also the mountManager isn't processing sucessfully :crying:.
The mount smb:// on my desire x with the app mountmanager results in "Failed to connect to server"
ESfileManager has no problem finding the samba-share (with no pw) ...
Do the compiled modules work on your X ?
How do you mount a samba-share with the new compiled modules then ?
Really want to know how this has to be done...

I will release a kernel which can actually run cifs.ko. I think its not working because the kernel you are using doesn't expect cifs running on it. But my logic seems wrong so m nt so sure abt it
Can you tell me the procedure of testing it?

Click to expand...

Yes, prototype-U, it seems to inter-act with the kernel.
Procedure of testing.
There are three scenarios of testing.
1. test with app MountManager
2. test with app CIFSManager
3. cmd-test with commands in terminal
Details to 1.
In the app (from play store market) it is possible to define serveral details.
Details can be:
which modules
when process loading (start of app/boot/not at all)
path to cifs.ko and md4.ko on the DX
After definition of the details, checking of loaded modules is possible.
If no cifs.ko is loaded, processing further mounting steps have little chances
Then processing the mount to an external stick/HDD running a samba-share
Last step is checking the mount point with different file managers like ESfileExplorer and totalCommander.
If okay the path should be also usable in any app.
Details to 2.
Similar to 1. ,
but is not having detailed check-possibilies like loaded module-checking.
Is to verify the result of 1.
Details to 3.
"classic" cmds in a terminal
SU

Hi xpirt,
thanks for your information about fulmix kernel.
I am not 100% sure if I processed everything correctly.
So I did it three times with two different combinations
Can you try also fulmix.Kernel?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, ... I came from [ROM] mySENSEdx+ RC3.0 (JB | Sense 4+).
Today I installed also the breathless-theme and a battery-mod.
Then I flased the fulmix#2 kernel-image on that.
added CIFS support, please test.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes ... I love to be the first to try it
Result.
There was no loaded cifs.ko and md4.ko in mountManager.
So it seems to be not working yet.
Not possible (for me) to mount with cifsManager, not possible to mount with mountManager
Then I tried to load the files from prototype-U with MountManager.
Only loading the md4 was possible, not the cifs.ko any more.
Then flashed the recovery of mySENSE without breathless-theme and without battery-mod.
Then I tried again to load the files from prototype-U with MountManager.
Loading was possible again.
But mounting a share didn't process sucessfully yet.
So it is really gorgeous news to read of a kernel with integtrated cifs.ko
Try using those modules on my latest kernel.

With ESfile explorer it is also possible to access any files on the smb with DX phone.

I'm searching for cifs for cyanogenmod on my HTC Desire, but it seems there are very few versions and not anything for the latest cyanogenmod.

On Cyanogenmod, the cifs module is located at
/system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
and can be loaded with
CifsManager
or
Code:
insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
mount -t cifs -o username=[user],password=[password] //path/to/share /mnt/pt

Did you install a custom kernel?
If not, I didn't realize that cifs support varied across CM devices. Try installing a custom kernel that offers cifs support.

ok, in fact CIFS is compiled into the kernel, so the module will not appear in the system tree. I managed to get cifs manager working. It all works fine.

Hello,
I'm interested in compiling the tun.ko driver necessary for OpenVPN. However, I got stuck when trying to pull the config.gz file from /proc/ since Motorola didn't include it as an option.
I'm not great with all this and was just following a guide. Has anyone created a working .config file that I could use instead?
Thanks
Isn't any config included?
have you tried make oldconfig?

I thought you needed the config.gz file (and the resultant .config) pulled from the phone to use make oldconfig?
Yes. But there should be one included or else we have to complain to Motorola.
The config is included in the binary so it have to be provided together with the source to follow GPL
The default configuration in the kernel source should be okay.
I'll compile that later for you

Emh, as the default kernel configuration says, the TUN/TAP interface driver is already included into the kernel. You don't need a module.

My apologies. On my last phone I had to have a tun.ko module. My understanding after searching these past few days is most phones require it to be built. Is the RAZR different by having it built into the stock kernel?
By the way, finally got OpenVPN working today.
Thanks
Yup, it seems Moto wanted to include support for VPNs on stock!

It lets you setup a VPN connection from your phone to another server. Basically, your phone encrypts all your data before going to Verizon, etc. then it arrives at (in my situation) my home router which decrypts it then sends the request out to the internet, and back to my phone encrypted and so on.
It's useful for:
1) I can access my home network from anywhere as if I were at home connected to my router over Wifi
2) If I'm out at a hotel or something and I want to use the Wifi to access a bank account or something without worrying about someone else on the network stealing my password.
Just to name a few.
Has anyone gotten cisco annyconnect working on the razr?

Warning: I will take no responsibility for data loss or corruption that may occur on NTFS drives, though ntfs-3g has been known to be safe.
Steps to get NTFS full read-write working:
1. Install attached .zip via recovery (or push the file )
2. Reboot
3. To mount OTG drives, use the script attached with "Script Manager" app (as root)
(Even NTFS microsd cards can be mounted with minor changes)
4. To unmount, just press "Unmount" in USB OTG helper
This will be built in USB OTG helper app soon!

This is a kernel module that defeats HTC's system write protection
Devs are free to use this in their ROMs, just credit me and link here

How to use:
copy the module to your device (eg: /system/lib/modules), insert the module, then remount system
insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod2.ko
mount -o remount,rw /system
This must be done at boot, if you make changes to /system, then load the module, you risk corrupting the filesystem.
How to implement in ROMs
There are two good ways to implement this in ROMs:
1. make an init.d script containing the commands above
or
2. add the commands to init.rc in the ramdisk
NOTE TO POTENTIAL KERNEL DEVS:
The module would not be necessary if you make a custom kernel. Simply make sure it is compiled without CONFIG_MMC_MUST_PREVENT_WP_VIOLATION
Please hit the Thanks button if you download this
If you really like it, please consider buying me a beer
Source code: http://goo.gl/VmSwe
This is a great news...
I think most people is using kernel version 3.0.21-g6c11713
as this comes with the EU & Asia ROM.
It will only work for the exact kernel version, and even then it may take many attempts before I get it right.
Here's one for kernel version 3.0.21-g6c11713
