Tested and replied on that thread - many thanks
Just found out if I run the USB camera mounter in Slacko, then the camera directories become visible in the GTKpod software (no writing)

@Lobster
This question does NOT require any immediate response as I am asking just for understanding
  1. Are you saying that you have an iPod/iPad unit that will connect to a Microsoft PC where the MS PC can "see" the unit in his "Network Neighborhood"?
  2. Or, are you sharing that an iPod/iPad unit can share folders or files on an MS PC without the MS PC needing to have applications added to it; by, simply, making a share in MS PC's "Network Neighborhood"?
And, as a result of this ability, your SAMBA v3.6.+ by 01Micko/Pemaus on Puppy should extend the same level of service and be recognized by your iPod/iPad unit in the same way as it may be recognized on MS PC without any apps added to the MS PC or to Puppy-SAMBA. If not, there is a bug and it should be reported to SAMBA.

I do not have access to an iPod/iPad unit, so we must rely on your observations-reports.

Hope this helps

OK
I have an ipad RD (retina display).
I can read pics and videos directly with Slacko . . .
However I am not yet able to upload files or access the ipad directly.
That is what I am trying to do in a variety of ways.

At the moment I send files as email attachments. :)
With advice from tempestous I am able to use ifuse
to read my ipad root directory (but not yet the contents}

I will now do a little searching/reading on ifuse.
