wireless ftp

hi is there a wireless ftp software for kpw1 ? like the one Duokan has. I want it to run natively.

Step 1 - install USBNetwork hack

I don't have Duokan, but I can connect wireless using sftp - gftp is a simple gui client, or even better mount it with sshfs. For Windows, try Winsftp. You do have ssh access?

^ what brian said. scp is a far better alternative. If you really, really want or need ftp: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...67&postcount=9

How do I install it ? and what is the ip address I connect to ?
I connect to my kindle using android AndFTP through portable wi-fi hotspot.

if it's not jailbroken, there is not a simple way of adding apps or enabling connections. To run an ftp server, you would also need to open a port on the Kindle firewall.

My advice: Install jailbreak. Install USBNetwork and ssh in. Read a lot of posts on connections and possibilities to connect. There is no super-simple install-program-to-do-all-the-work-for-you. This is not Android. With a bit of work from you, though, you can do quite a bit. Have fun!

my kpw1 is jailbroken.

I have never used this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...juicessh&hl=en
but it seems as though it could work to ssh in from your Android. You will need to set up a password. To do that, I believe you need to install the usbnetwork package:

After you can ssh in, you can then use other tools to connect. Please try the search function on this forum.
