I bought my PogoPlug to be able to remotely access files, primarily by mounting/mapping the drive on remote machines. What's the best way to do that?

Mount/Map via what protocol? What is your target OS?

ssh in, cd to what is likely /tmp/.cemnt/mnt_sda1/ and then

`mount -t cifs -o username=WINUSER,password=WINPASS //WINDOWS/SHARE DEST`

where DEST is some empty subdirectory on your usb drive's root. WINUSER, WINPASS, WINDOWS, SHARE are all the info regarding the windows box you're accessing.

I have no idea if it will index it at all though.
