Hello,

I wonder if there is a way to run FTP server on Kobo Glo/HD? I try to explain how I use this method on my phone. On Android smartphone I run ftp server (I set username/pass beforehand), then on PC I add network location of the phone and connect to it. It is displayed the same as windows folders. Very convenient when I want to copy to/from my phone.
I tried to use SSH server on Kobo Glo, but couldn't connect via putty. Putty keep asking login name and pass, even when I set to connect without password... Access denied.
Also tried SendToEbook, it did not work with my phone, do not know why.

Could you please tell if there is an easy wireless way to connect reader from PC? I usually download fb2 on my PC end then copy it to device. Not very convenient to do it via cable, after found out the method with FTP server

Thank you for you work.
