   i've started thinking in the back of my head of what would be the smoothest way of networking multiple (pocket) reforms in such a way that they can access their respective file systems and/or remote control their respective screens. i've tried several neat things in the past but because my systems are often in flux (testing new hw and sw releases) i don't have a easily reproducible setup for this yet.

     some puzzle pieces:
     —netevent
     —sshfs
     —wayvnc
     —webdav
     —9p2000 (haven't really tested that for file sharing yet)
     —syncthing (a bit too complicated setup for my taste)

     for example, i have a movie file on my pocket reform that i want to play but right now my reform is connected to my "tv" monitor. i have many choices of how i could stream that but i think i'll try sshfs first (i could also try minidlna)

     I guess that's sshfs will burn your CPU the default encrypting algorithm is not supposed for media streaming or big file transfer

     @coresec any recommendations for sth as easy as sshfs but less heavy?

     You excluded syncthing this is my daily driver for sync my PC/Servers it's not so complicated to setup the machines in a local network automatically discover the peers

     For mounting network storage I use the good old smb/cifs :-)

     @coresec i didn't exclude it, i even use it but i forgot how to make additional devices join the setup etc

     @mntmn have a look at
     https://github.com/u-root/cpu

     needs no giant rootfs on the target, just a single daemon
     the model is importing resources to your terminal (think dev machine)

     e.g. write a kernel driver and insmod it via cpu:
     cpu pocket-reform-1 insmod ./drivers/.../foo.ko

     run an app with framebuffer output:
     cpu pocket-reform-2 ./fbsplash -file bg.png

     etc. etc... I've done and showcased a lot of that, including mpv to another laptop:
