PS3 A multiMAN (mmCM) feature your may not be aware of .....

Developer Aldostools brought (or re-brought) to our attention with a tutorial of a feature you may not be aware is within multiMAN's mmCM mode. As developer aldostools was having a private conversation with developer deank, the developer of multiMAN pointed out that the AIO manager not only has an FTP Server that we all know and use, but the less known and perhaps just as useful PS3 NET SERVER is built into mmCM. So this means you can mount and play a ISO stored on another PS3. This is a a great feature that many are unaware of and this feature has been around since v4.15.00 (as seen here in my coverage back in 2012), developer aldostools has provided us with a couple of methods to get this working with webMAN or multiMAN and its not very difficult at all. View all the details below for some additional information about this feature .

​

I'm posting this because probably many users are not aware of this feature... even myself was not 100% aware of it until deank pointed it to me few days ago.

Here we go....

multiMAN (aka mmCM) not only has an ftp server... it also has a PS3 NET SERVER that runs on PS3.... and this feature has been there in mmCM for ages!!!! :crazy:

That means that it's possible to mount the ISOs stored on another PS3 (that is running multiMAN) using webMAN, webMAN MOD or multiMAN on your PS3.

The steps are quite simple:

1- Start multiMAN on the PS3 that will act as server (the one that has the ISO that we want to run).
2- On multiMAN go to Settings column and set "Remote Access Permissions" to Full
3- On another PS3 use webMAN or multiMAN to connect to the PS3.​

a) If you use webMAN:

• Go to /setup.ps3, put a check mark on Scan for LAN games/videos PS3NETSRV#1 (2 or 3...), enter the IP address of the PS3 acting as server, enter 38008 as port and save!!
• Use webMAN file browser to navigate to the folder containing the ISO in /net0 (or /net1, etc.) and mount it clicking on the 2nd column (size column).

b) If you use multiMAN:

• Go to Settings column, press X on Network Servers option, enable /net_host0 and enter the IP address of the PS3 acting as server, enter 38008 as port, enter a friendly name (press START on each prompt).
• Now you can go to mmOS (SELECT+START), navigate to the folder containing the ISO in /net_host0 and mount it double clicking on the file (press X twice).

IMPORTANT: multiMAN must be always running on the PS3 acting as server, unless you use webMAN MOD "full edition" (which has implemented its own PS3 NET Server).

Multi-part ISO or games in JB folders cannot be mounted with multiMAN's PS3 NET Server (neither with webMAN MOD's PS3 NET Server).

Enjoy it!!! ... all credits (and your base) belong to deank

what is mmcm, xmb. webman, miniweb, homebrew, mod vs HAN,

 

what is mmcm, xmb. webman, miniweb, homebrew, mod vs HAN,

mmCM is the cobra mode of multiMAN. It's basically another name for multiMAN.
multiMAN is a backup manager for PS3 with many features (FTP, File Manager, backup games, launch backups, etc).
XMB (Cross Media Bar) is the official menu of the PS3 where you launch games and do other stuff.
webMAN is another backup manager for PS3. Unlike multiMAN, which is an APP, webMAN is a plugin that normally runs in background immediately you turn on the console. Both tools were developed by deank.
miniweb is a very small HTTP server for Windows. It can be used to serve files in a local network (LAN) without access to the Internet.
Homebrew is an application for the video game console developed by end-users.
MOD is an abbreviation of "modified".
webMAN MOD is the name of a modified version of webMAN which adds several new features. It is a community project started by me with the contribution of several developers from The scene. It's originally based on the work of deank, Zar and Matsumot0
HAN is another name for ps3xploit v3.0. While ps3xploit v2.0 is intended to allow the installation of custom firmware (CFW) on PS3 running official firmware (OFW) 4.82; the version 3.0 allows to make certain modifications and install unsigned games on consoles that do not allow the installation of custom firmware.

Thanks in advance and thanks a lot for clear information

 

Does this still work across the world like in says in the article and if so how?

 

Hello peeps,

I have a few questions

1. Why did multiman discontinue?
2. Is there an alternative app for this app?
3. Why did the developer not make it opensource? Since he kinda left the project.

Kind regards,

DeanK has a live and other projects.

1. It is not officially discontinued, but it hasn't required to be updated in years.
2. IRISMAN, ManaGunZ, webMAN MOD to name a few.
3. It used to be open source, but people used to abuse it rebranding the software. The contribution was almost null.
