[usbip-devel] libusb / usbip interworking on Windows

[Lee m. <mo...@im...>]

(apologies to those on libusb mail list)

Hi All,

I have a very specific situation which I need advice.

I have the following setup

#
# Remote machine
#
Linux running USBIP (server) with a binded usb device (mass storage)

#
# Local Machine
#
Windows7 running USBIP (client) attached to remote usb device (from above)

The Windows device manager can see the mass storage device listed, but 
if I use libusb
and specifically if I use the example for enumerating devices - 
listdevs.exe
I see nothing listed. I would expect to see the mass storage device

Can anyone suggest a way that I can get libusb to recognize the devices 
which are attached
using USBIP ?

FYI, I do not have this issue when running the USBIP client and libusb 
on another Linux machine
unfortunately my requirement, is for the client to be running under 
Windows.

Any help appreciated, but I have a hard restriction that the client is 
running under Windows7

The host usbip remote server, could be either Linux or Windows -
but that does not appear to be the issue anyway

Many Thx
Lee
