libusb and mass storage are two different things. libusb is supported
on linux for perhiperhals such as scanners, still cameras, pda's, etc.
Thrown in USB printers, other serial/parallel devices and you do need to
know where to find those things.
We could do a better job in spelling it out, but then again not too many
people read the docs. It was in the release notes for 3.0 (
ftp://docs-pdf.sun.com/817-6813/817-6813.pdf ), but for some reason that
section disappeared from the 3.1 release notes. I'll see what I can do
about that.
It's pointed out a couple of other places, though not obvious.

One thing you want to make sure that you do is bug your Sun sales rep to
bug the Sun marketing folks for features you need. They're the folks
that can share roadmap information and set product features.

Thank you for clearifying that (seriously). We've been kind of beating
our heads against the wall trying to get this to work. I guess the most
frustrating point is, why does the SRSS 3.1 features page list USB
devices as a feature (but makes no mention of Solaris only), why does
the Administration Guide for LINUX walk through how/where USB devices
are mounted, and why does the libusbut man page claim this as well?
Are there plans to offer this for Linux? We have already migrated
almost all of our SunRay devices to linux. While this feature is not a
requirement for us, it would be a HUGE plus. Thanks!!

Hi Greg,
Sun Ray currently only supports mass storage under Solaris.
