File access

Copy files to and from the console over your network: saves, states, screenshots, BIOS, and games on its drives. Off to start with; nothing listens until you turn it on.

Turn it on

Settings, Storage, File access (the PIN, if one is set). Press the row again to see the details:

the console’s address, and its name ending in .local
User name: cabinet
Password: made by the console, shown on the TV. New password makes another.

Connect

Use any SFTP client (FileZilla, Cyberduck, WinSCP, or sftp in a terminal) on port 22:

sftp cabinet@192.168.1.50

with the console’s own address. You see these folders:

Folder	Holds
`users`	Each person’s saves, states and screenshots
`bios`	The BIOS, firmware and keys the console has fetched
`roms`	Downloaded games
`cache`	Games fetched by Play
`reports`	Diagnostic reports, the last five
`External` and others	The `CabinetOS` folder on each extra drive

Only these folders are reachable, and only by file transfer, not a shell.

Each game starts from the newest save on your RomM server, so a save file copied in by hand is only used for a game that has no save on the server.

Developer access

For people working on CabinetOS itself: Settings, About, press Version seven times and Developer access appears. It opens a full shell over SSH on port 2222, with the same user name and password. It needs a PIN to be set. Seven more presses on Version hide it and turn it off.
