cifs manager help : empty directory - General Questions and Answers

I'm having a very specific problem with cifs manager.
When I mount a CD drive, I can access all root files and see all directories, but all those directories are empty.
I have this same problem when I share a CD drive in 2 Different xp machines, but, No problems in Windows 7.
I tried sharing and mounting the individual folders, but they were still empty. If I moved those same folders to my harddrive and shared, then it works.
From my Android tablet, I am able to browse and open those missing files in Es explorer.
But what I really want to do is mount those files. (I also tired Mount Manager, didn’t work at all)
Anyone know what the problem might be?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks

[Q] Mount SMB network share

I want to mount a Windows 7 shared folder on the TF. I have tried both cifsmaner and Mount Manager and both keep telling me no such device exists. The share is on 192.168.x.x on E drive in a folder called Share. I have made it accessible to Everyone and I have no problems accessing it from File Expert or ES File Explorer. But I cannot get it to mount on the TF.
Any ideas?
EDIT: Oops! Should be posted in general sorry about that.

[Q] file management in root explorer / windows

I'm having an issue managing files with both root explorer and windows 7 explorer.
When I create or copy files/folders in root explorer, windows explorer will not see the new or moved files. However, I can copy files and folders from my Windows drives to the xoom, and they'll show up from root explorer fine.
I checked the permissons of files created in root explorer vs files created in windows, and they're both the same. I also made sure I have the latest motorola usb drivers and whatnot.
It seems that MTP mode makes windows see the folders differently and not read the entire file structure.. or something. I had created files and folders from root explorer on my droid x a while back and never had this problem with usb mass storage mode.
Anyone have any ideas why this is happening?
At this time USB Mass Storage Mode is not possible on the Xoom (Honeycomb file structure issue IIRC).
yeah, I know mass storage mode is not possible.. I'm wondering why MTP doesn't allow windows to see changes made from within the xoom and if there's a way around it.
I have the same problem.
I use my Xoom to annotade PDF skripts from university, when I want to copy them back to the PC, i see an old version of the files, that shouldn't be there anymore.
The "last edited date" is the day I copied the files onto the Xoom, and the file size is some kb smaller than that the file manager on the xoom shows
It's like a time machine ... but not in a good way
I sometimes see the same issue. I don't know why it happens or how to fix it but as a workaround, rebooting the Xoom seems to let Explorer pickup the proper files.

[Q] Super Mount app Question - how to?

Hello there, sorry for this noob question, but I am really eager to let my external SD card to work. I have checked out some of the methods like directory bind etc., although some of them do not work and even complicated for a noob like me; I saw this app called Super Mount in google play and also it was previously suggested as what i have read in the forum here in XDA regarding how to run your apps or games in your ext SD so you can save your phones' (in case my mine its tablet) internal memory, did some research, and so I have tried what I could but I cannot seem to make it work... here is the path that I have been using in the Super Mount....(the one listed below that is the example path in google play)
source path : /storage/extSdCard/Android/obb/jp.co.sega.vtc (my tablet)
mount path : /storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/jp.co.sega.vtc
vs.
source path : /storage/extSdCard/DioDict3B (the example on the supermounts screen shot in google play)
mount path : /storage/sdcard0/DioDict3B
So I was kind of trying to copy how the directory should be...and by the directory that I did, whenever I launch my game its not working....its virtua tennis by the way.....and it says i need to download the extrafile over the wifi connection, though it works fine if I install it in my internal SD and put the SD data in the OBB folder. So, I am assuming it has something to do with the mounting. I have successfuly installed Lidroid File Manager and its plug-in the Super Mount, I can mount and unmount successfuly via the plug-in, only that I cannot seem to make it work.
By the way, I have Folder Mount installed and I'm using it for some big games in the tablet. Would that affect the directory or something if I have it installed? I just noticed there's an "emulated" in the directory, would that do anything to make the lidroid not to work? I did not uninstalled it since I have games which I have already mounted via the Folder Mount and it might mess things up more, so just want to consult few experts here in the forum first. Thanks and more power

Path to Mounted EncFs

Forgive me if this is in the wrong place.
I'm using EDS Lite to mount an EncFs directory. That works fine. I can access the directory from file managers when it's mounted. That's fine. I don't have any trouble accessing the encrypted files when I want them.
BUT:
Suppose I'm using a program that doesn't have one of those simple sidebars that lets you access different things. A program like App2SD. Suppose I can access any directory from the Root, but I don't have a nice shortcut that takes me directly to a mounted file system. So the important question is:
What is the path to the mounted EncFs system?
With other mounted file systems, I know a couple ways to get there. For example, I can get to the SD card from Root/storage/###-####, or from Root/mnt/media_rw/####-####. With the second partition on my SD card, I can get there using Root/data/sdext2. But now, what about the mounted EncFs file system I have? How could I reach that from the root directory? How could I get there?

Making EncFS directory accessible to ALL apps

I posted something in General and got no responses. Maybe that was the wrong place. Maybe this is where I belong.
XDA Forums is where the best and brightest minds come together to discuss tech. Someone has GOT to know what to do!
So, I'm putting some files into an encrypted EncFS directory. I'm using EDS Light. The directory is formatted as exFAT (some people prefer the term exOVERWEIGHT). So here's the deal. I can access the directory just fine. I can unlock it with EDS Light, no problem. I can connect to it with my file explorer of choice, FX.
All of that is just fine. But there's something else.
A lot of programs don't have the sophistication of file explorers. They can access the internal storage, the added microSD card, maybe the Root directory. But they can't access the unlocked EncFS directory. They have no way to see it.
So, how do I mount the EncFS directory so all my applications can see it?
Hell, if I could at least get App2SD to see it, I'd be set. I could use it's Folder Mount feature to create a path to the directory. But as it is, the program can't see it.
I know I can get to a lot of important places through the Root directory. I can get to my microSD card via Root/mnt/media_rw/####-####, or to the second partition of my microSD via Root/data/sdext2. But can I do this with an EncFS directory? Is there a path to it?
I know that whatever path I create will only work when the EncFS system is unlocked. That's what I want. I want to only be able to access it after I've put the password into EDS Lite. But once the file system has been unlocked, how do I make a path to it?
Someone HAS to know! This is XDA Forums!
