What's the best way to forward SMB TCP port 445 to something higher than 1024 on Windows?

It must be true, as you say, that a "network drive" is not quite the same
thing, as a "drive", where, in the case of FTP "network drives", it's
different even more so, than it is in the case of WebDav "network drives".

Typo/thinko...

The FTP is a "removable drive" while the WebDAV is a "network drive".

While we've solved a lot of common problems in this thread...
there is far much more for intelligent people to improve:
1. There is no working non-root solution for SMB mounting over WiFi
2. There is no known freeware solution for MTP mounting over USB

I have confidence that I will eventually solve both those problems (as I
almost never fail), but it won't be easy; and it will likely take a few
golden nuggets of knowledge from the intelligent adults on this newsgroup
to do so.

To be fair, I think he actually does both, i.e. does some research and
'expects' others to do the rest. In some cases , the research part is
minimal to (nearly) absent. In other cases, there's quite a bit of
research, but the prresentation is ... ummm .. 'sub-optimal'. :-)

What Frank Slootweg wrote is correct in that I do a lot more research than
the likes of proven morons such as Rudy Wieser can _ever_ comprehend; but,
it's also true that I ask questions when solutions that may exist are
unknown to me.

Lot of whatever deleted. If you keep commenting on how stupid or clever

Hi nospam,

I see you prove you can't add a single iota of added value:
1. What is a working non-root solution for SMB mounting over WiFi
2. What is a freeware solution for MTP mounting over USB

You, like Frank, both only comprehend what appears to be capricious to you,
sort of like how someone who can't comprehend quantum mechanics feels that
the state of Shroedingers' cat is capricious.
o When you act like a child, nospam, I treat you as a child
o When you act like an adult, nospam, I treat you as an adult

Since you prove you own the mind of a child, you can't _comprehend_ that.

If it seems I'm trying to alienate you, nospam, as the worthless vermin
that you prove to me, then you'd be correct.

*You know why I can very safely alienate you worthless vermin, nospam?*

Hi Frank Slootweg,
You made an incorrect statement akin to:
o The cops keep giving me speeding tickets for doing nothing

I explained why your statement is only the 2nd half of the picture.
o You speed first
o Then the cops give you a speeding ticket

You just proved that you don't comprehend that concept.
I knew that you don't comprehend it since you proved it in the prior post.

SO that's now _twice_ in series that you proved you don't comprehend
o A bank robber _first_ robs the bank
o Only after the bank robber robs the bank, do the police arrest him

What you only see is the arrest.
You don't see the bank robbery.

I've proved this to you many times, Frank Slootweg, where all I have to do
to prove it is point to your own posts.
o When you act like a child, Frank, I treat you as a child
o When you act like an adult, I treat you as an adult

You only see how I treat you - you never see that it's a *mirror* of your
actions, just as nospam will never see that I treat him (and everyone else)
exactly the same way.

You can't see when you rob the bank, Frank.
You blamed the police for your conviction on bank robbery, Frank.

You've done this so many times that I can predict you will continue it.
Hence, you prove every time that you don't comprehend what a mirror is.

Here is added value for WinXP users from another thread moments ago...

//Win2K and WinXP WebDAV Notes

For implementation of WebDAV on Windows XP and later , MSFT made it's
own interpretation of the standard to work best with the Windows IIS
servers. The problem due to this is three fold:

Windows XP authenticates users using the format "domain\username"
by the mechanism of "Microsoft-WebDAV-MiniRedir/5.1.2600". Whereas
Windows 98SE/2000 authenticates users as "username" using the
mechanism of "Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider DAV
1.1".
The problem lies with the implementation of
"Microsoft-WebDAV-MiniRedir/5.1.2600". If authentication is sent as
"domain\username" then it would be received as "usernamedomain" or
"usernamehostname" by the Web server and not as "username".
Also as per "Microsoft Knowledge Base, Article ID: 841215" Windows
XP disables "Basic Auth" in its "Microsoft-WebDAV-MiniRedir/5.1.2600"
mechanism by default for security reasons. But WebDAV expects "Basic
Auth".//

I completely understand your request Carlos, because I am a mirror.
I mirror your posts in an attempt to funnel you into being an adult.

You don't seem to comprehend, even now, the simple concept of a *mirror*.

*Every response you hate, simply points out what _you_ wrote.*
o If you act like an adult, I treat you as an adult
o If you act like a child, I treat you as a child

What you're asking show you think like a child does:
1. You first rob the bank.
2. Then you complain that the newspaper points that out.

All I'm doing, Carlos, is pointing out what people write.
o If what they write is useful, I thank them
o If what they write is childish, I point that out

It's a mirror, Carlos.
A funnel, Carlos.

If someone posts childish drivel that just wastes everyone's time,
you don't want me to point that out to the poster. I completely
understand you Carlos. I really do.

You don't understand me.
o My strategy is to funnel you into acting like an adult
* My tactics include mirroring your posts as proof of your own actions

Moving forward as always, this morning I tested another FTP freeware
share-mounting app, last updated a decade ago, which didn't report errors,
but which didn't work either, so it's a flop.
o Screenshot http://www.bild.me/bild.php?file=4023721dir025.jjpg.jpg
o FTPDrive 3.5 http://www.killprog.com/fdrve.html
o Saved to: C:\software\network\ftp\ftpdrive
o Checksum of:
Name: FDinst.exe
Size: 219159 bytes (0 MB)
SHA256: E04B3FFD271A005E10A30E0744D1202E0A4910579975AAD812 8B53AE5B4E126A
o It wants to go into C:\Program Files (x86)\KillSoft\FtpDrive
o I installed to: C:\app\network\ftp\ftpdrive
o Executable: C:\app\network\ftp\ftpdrive\FtpDrive.exe

The FTPDrive 3.5 executable created a drive letter, X:, but, the
contents of that drive were empty. So it was a flop as tested.

If someone else could test FTPDrive out, and if it works for them,
(particularly if they use default paths), then that would add
yet another FTP-share-mounting solution to the Windows/Android
cross-platform tribal knowledge.

The goal, always, is a universal solution for everyone.
(I already have _plenty_ of solutions for myself.)

To continue the adult task of adding technical value, this snippet

Which we can combine with this related snippet from the same

You have to use 3rd party utilities if you want to map a drive
via webDAV in those cases."

I appreciate you once again admitting that something I wrote (I'll

As anyone who follows the thread can see though, it blew up in your

The answer to his question is No, you did not thank me. Nor have you
credited me for the quotes you've used concerning Webdav and what
versions of windows natively support it via net use. Despite me and
only me being the one to tell you. It's okay though, I realize that
I'm dealing with a very immature and childish individual who's
incapable of doing much of a technical nature without extensive hand
holding. And even then, due to proven (as in factually verified using
your own posts no less) reading comprehension issues, it can be
extreme hand holding in many cases.

It seems to me, and do correct me if I'm wrong on this one Arlen,
that you're a bit (quite a bit actually) on the dishonest side with
some of your posts here. You're intentionally omitting certain
information (origination source, for one example). Are you more than
just a troll then, Arlen? By more, I mean are you actually as
dishonest as you appear to be with your quoting, snipping, etc,
efforts? I can handle a troll to a point, I don't filter right away
(if ever).. but, I don't deal well with easily shown to be dishonest
people, Arlen. There's simply no need for it here.

Please do explain how I've got the wrong impression of you here. Not
enough sleep for me, mebbe, too little/much coffee? Completely
misunderstood you and the intentions behind the posts? Give me
something (preferrably believable) that shows you aren't the
dishonest ****ing troll I'm starting to think you are...?

Thanks in advance. Also, alt.comp.freeware added to this reply. You
lifted material from there so it's only right you be exposed for
having done that AND not properly crediting either of the persons
(myself and Shadow) who gave it to you in the first place.

In case you haven't noticed, Arlen, I'm not going to go away anytime
soon. You've actually managed to become a slight annoyance. Enough so
that i'll continue to track your posts and as I've done with this
one, expose you for what you are. There's no need for others who
don't already know you to have to deal with your nonsense and
childish insults; which invariably come their way at some point, even
if you're initially praising them.

They can avoid the entire hassle by electing NOT to respond to a post
of yours. Just leave you to **** in the wind and find answers on your
own. I've yet to see a single post from anybody on the newsgroups
I've found you posting in so far that cares or has requested any sort
of 'tribal knowledge' notes or anything like that from you. Not one
post so far. If you have one, please, share the MID so that I may
read it.

Oh wait, you thought that you couldn't be tracked due to the
extensive effort you place into your Anonymity via header
modification (forged data, piles of it)? Don't be so naive, Arlen.
You leave cookie crumbs all over the place. A kid could track you.

To be fair,although my header shows i'm using es, I'm not directly
linked to the es server. *hint 1* There's a computer on this network
that's playing middleman *hint 2*; which giving proper credit where
credit is due, allows me to track you with great ease. I'd have a
more difficult time had my configuration been that of a normal user.

I'm not running scripts and a dedicated text writing app as you are,
the client i'm using is real, the 'scripts' you use are exes I wrote
in my case which directly interact with the data files this client
creates and makes use of (entirely my own reverse engineering
efforts, thank you very much; I cheated in no possible way) as well
as the software package that plays the part of middleman on another
system. *hint 3*; very direct hint this one is.

The box itself is linux native, but, the software package I'm
intentionally not mentioning by name (it's not uncommon; i'm just
being an asshole, on purpose, towards you) is not linux native, nor
are the exe files I wrote which interact with it.

By interact, they do some behind the scenes work for me. Batch sends
of posts in a random order and randomized amount of posts per send
being one example. Unique FQDN lines being another example. Ahh, the
benefits of being a coder...

It's so beneficial, I wrote a 'bot' of sorts which helps me keep
track of you. hehe. No, Arlen, I'm not stalking you and a simple
morphing on your part would evade it for now (I can put an end to
that too, I already tested proof of concept code to do it; in the
event you want to run and hide) but not if I don't want you to evade
me. G

I have absolutely no way of learning who you are irl, your IP address
or anything else like that from the information I'm using to keep
track of you; so you're just as safe now as you were yesterday as far
as any of that is concerned. And, if by some ****ed up chance I run
across a post where such information could be acquired (I'd hope you
weren't so stupid at any point), I will NOT use it nor point others
to it.

I have no interest in you on a personal level. None whatsoever. I
don't want/or care to know who you are. You're an asshole enough from
the limited interaction I've had with you already.

With all of that said, Arlen, I have a couple of very simple
questions for you. I'd appreciate others not chiming in until you've
had a chance to do so..not that I have any control over it, either
way, just expressing my opinion/small request that I don't deserve.
Especially since i've 'invaded' various newsgroups by responding to
you.

I apologize to all the regulars for this post. Although my FQDN line
is subject to change at any time, you may easily killfile me by using
my from line; I don't change it very often. And, if/when I do so
later, I'll expose myself so that filters can be properly adjusted.

Now then, to my questions...

1) Based on what I described above in a hinting manner..Do you know
what I'm doing? Re-read what I wrote above, slowly, before
responding.

2) Would the aforementioned hinted about 'task' the computer is doing
be a server side thing, a client side thing, or both, Arlen?
