- - Start usbip daemon.
+ - Start usbip daemon.
- server:# usbip_bind_driver --list
- - List driver assignments for usb devices.
-
- server:# usbip_bind_driver --usbip 1-2

+
+ client:# usbip attach --host <host> --busid 1-2
+ - Connect the remote USB device.
- client:# usbip --attach server 1-2
- - Connect the remote USB device.
+ client:# usbip port
+ - Show virtual port status.
- client:# usbip --port

+[Checklist]
+ - See 'Debug Tips' on the project wiki.
+ - http://usbip.wiki.sourceforge.net/how-to-debug-usbip
- usbip-host.ko must be bound to the target device.
- - See /proc/bus/usb/devices and find "Driver=..." lines of the device.
+ - See /proc/bus/usb/devices and find "Driver=..." lines of the device.
- Shutdown firewall.
- - usbip now uses TCP port 3240.
+ - usbip now uses TCP port 3240.
- Disable SELinux.
- - If possible, compile your kernel with CONFIG_USB_DEBUG flag and try
- again.
- - Check your kernel and daemon messages.
- ex. /var/log/{messages, kern.log, daemon.log, syslog}
+ - If possible, compile your kernel with CONFIG_USB_DEBUG flag and try again.
