That is something I can prevent if I want to. (Have iptables block incoming SYN+ACK packets on ppp0) Or perhaps I want some friends to be able to see this. However, I don't think there are any operators that do this. IP addresses are expensive, so they surely don't want to hand them out to phones - almost none of the net surfing phones can run any server software anyway. The FR can, and perhaps you can hack it on a few others. The rest merely runs browsers... To check: open one of those webpages that show you your own IP address. Then try shh to that address. I cannot imagine this working... Helge Hafting ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

If it isn't already then it should be, with some sensibly safe defaults.

It is simple, because sharing a gps unit over the network is an old feature of linux. The freerunner makes its gps available on port 2947. So, just connect your laptop and phone. If you use the usb cable, the phone will have ip address 192.168.0.202 Set up your laptop gps software to use the gps unit at 192.168.0.202:2947, instead of the default localhost:2947.

Its quite easy to setup. 1) check /etc/init.d/fso-gpsd and set -S parametr to ip:port where ip is ie ip address of your wifi interface on neo where you would like to access gpsd from laptop, and port you can keep default gpsd. 2) on laptop check that this ip address is available with ping and then set address of gpsd in tangogps last tab to that ip. 3) if something goes wrong, check port availability with nmap and gps data on laptop side with gpspipe. -- uin:136542059jid:martin.ja...@gmail.com Jansa Martin sip:jama...@voip.wengo.fr JaMa pgpF5AONh5A0m.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
