Hello,

You should use samba to share folder with Windows computers.

Dear Ludovic,

I am using at91sam9263 rev B. atmel kit.
and using linux with kernel 2.6.27-at91-exp2 patch .
Please let me know samba is already installed on it or not?
if not how to install it and how to use it?

Hello,

I think Samba is not very appropriate for embedded device but I don't know if there is another solution to share folder with Windows. For desktop computer I only know Samba.

So to add Samba to your board, you can use Open Embedded since there is a samba recipe. It is also available with BuildRoot. Use the tool you prefer!
