Fedora :: Access To External HDD?

Aug 25, 2009

Recently I've formated my PC. I've installed Fedora 11 in my new HDD. Through a doxky station I've connected my old HDD (with Fedora 11 too) but I can't gain access. Through "palimpsest disk utility" I can see my HDD:

Quote:

750 GB Generic External
750 GB / GiB / 750,156,374,016 bytes
Master Boot Record
Connected via USB at 480.0 Mbit/s

[Code]....

If I click on "750 GB LVM2 Physical Volume" I can read the attribute type of partition as Linux LVM (0x8e). Unfortunately I can gain access inside to recover my old documents and backups.

Fedora Networking :: Can't Access Shared External HDD?

May 29, 2010

I have a Belkin router with an external HDD attached to it through the USB port on the router. Every time I try to access it, I get a popup asking for the username, domain name, and password. I have no idea how to gain access to it in Fedora. I can access it fine with windows XP and 7, but get the login screen when using Fedora. I can access my shared files on the xp machine just fine with fedora, but not the external on the router. Do I need to do some extra configuring with samba to get it to work? What is my domain password anyway, I don't ever remember setting one up? Is there a way to find out and just plug it in when the login screen pops up? I am clueless, I tried searching, but everything I come up with involves vpn, which I am not using. If it helps, I sometimes get a similar login screen in windows as well, usually when I first log into either my xp machine or my 7. Its not every time I log in, but it does occasionally happen, I have no idea why. Networking is just not my forte. What I do to get around it is go into a file browser and type in the network location (\192.168.1.1FreeAgent Drive). Once I have done this I can can access the drive by clicking on the map I created in 'My Computer'.

Fedora :: Unable To Access A Usb External Hard Drive

May 27, 2011

Running fedora14 on a dell latitude-d600 laptop and I'm trying to access a 500gb sata external hard drive that is connected via usb. The laptop can see the drive as '500 GB Hard Disk: 524 MB Filesystem' and it's clearly mounted under the '/media' directory. However, when I attempt to read the files on it, I am only able to see the 524mb section of the drive. The external hard drive is an ext3 file system (running fedora13) and I believe it's encrypted.

Fedora :: Cannot Access External USB HD "Ubuntu"?

Aug 3, 2010

all my personal backup data is on a external HDD USB fromatted ext4 (w/default Ubuntu permissions of my account). I was using Ubuntu before. The disk is recognized, but it can't be mounted and the content is inaccessible.Error messageQuote:Cannot mount [disk1]One or more block devices are holding /dev/loop3There must be some difference between the default account permissions between Fedora and Ubuntu (maybe GUID 500 vs 100 for the default account?). I use the same user name and password on both distro, so I was expecting the drive be mounted without problem. I can access the content of my usb external hd when I "su- nautilus". Do I simply right click the disk and change the permissions?dsmeg

Code:
SELinux: initialized (dev fuse, type fuse), uses genfs_contexts
hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4

Ubuntu :: Get Access To An External USB Drive?

Apr 8, 2011

I have an external USB drive with one ext4 partition on it. When I plug it in it's mounted and a file manager window pops up. However, I am not able to create files/folders unless I'm root. I have to open Nautilus as root to put files on it. How do I set it so that I as a user can add files/folders to the drive having them end up with the same owner/permissions I have as a user? It's to cumbersome having to sudo every move with regards to the USB drive.

Hardware :: Cannot Access External Drive ?

Mar 17, 2010

I had an external harddrive connected via USB to my laptop, and I was copying all the data over to another drive so that I could format this one. About 1/3 of the way through copying, the power went off and the drive obviously shut off (laptop kept running since it's on battery).

Now when I try reconnecting the drive and mounting it, I get the error "mount: Stale NFS file handle". Same error on 3 different linux machines. I have read as much as I can on this issue and done the following to try to recover the drive/data. fsck multiple times, with different options, but exits every time with an "aborted" message after cycling through over 1000 inode errors. Then, tried recovering superblock from all backup locations on the drive. This didn't help either. I backed up up the drive with dd command so I have an image file just in case.

Any functions to do with partitioning refuse to work too. I am stumped here as I need to recover this data somehow and I haven't a clue as to what/why this happened. How I can recover the contents of this drive? And the drive is/was ext2.

Networking :: Access External Media On Ftp?

Sep 2, 2010

I am trying to access an external hard drive mounted on /media/disk_label/ over FTP anonymously. The thing is it does not work as intended.

I tried fiddling with se-linux, manually mounting the media, playing around with file permissions and stuff .. but nothing sufficed.

Things work fine when I set anon_root to a directory on the local hdd but and also with the default /var/ftp but as soon as I set anon_root=/media/disk_label/ftp ..

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Can't Access External Usb Drive

Ubuntu Servers :: Cannot Access PHPMyAdmin From External IP

Jul 6, 2011

I'm setting up a home web server using LAMP that I want to use to access files and practice coding, but I am very new to Linux and web servers. I currently have it so I can access phpMyAdmin and the test pages locally through my internal IP, but whenever I try to access it through the external IP I get this router management console that I don't know the password or username to. I know my router login and password and it's not the same as that. I've forwarded port 80 and when that didn't work I tried changing /etc/apache2/ports.conf to 8080 and I forwarded that port on my router with no luck too.

It doesn't seem to matter if I have any ports forwarded, though, it still brings me to the same screen regardless. Also, I have set up a static IP on the server by modifying the /etc/network/interfaces file. I've attached a screenshot with the actual router management console screen. I won't have access to the server until later, but, if you require any output from the server I will be sure to post it as soon as I get home. I'm not using ubuntu for my webserver, but debian instead because ubuntu server had a whole bunch of problems with my PCMCIA network card. Ubuntu suggestions should work just fine, but I just thought I should clarify.

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Access External Sites

Sep 1, 2011

Strangest thing...yesterday my 11.04 box lost the ability to access anything external. I can ssh to the box from outside my network, and all other boxes on my network are fine, but this one box can't hit anything external. If I attempt to ping a site it's doing the same resolution, but no packets are delivered.

Up until yesterday it was running fine, and I didn't make any changes to my home network or install any updates. Totally stumped.

Edit: this is a wired connection with a static internal IP.

Hardware :: Can Two Computers Access An External HD Via USB Simultaneously

May 19, 2011

I am interested in sharing an external drive between two computers. I do not want to disconnect the drive from one and then connect it on the other one - I want to share it.

Would this work with an external USB drive and a normal USB hub? Or is it something more complicated/impossible?

Also connecting the machines via network is not possible - it has to be USB, or I can connect it to one machine also via Ethernet but the second connection has to be USB.

Networking :: Accessing External SSH From A PC With Only Port 80 Access

Dec 23, 2010

I work for a company who has a really closed proxy configuration, and I think that only the port 80 is opened, but with a lot of blocked sites.

I guess that for other cases, like bank sites and others, they opened the 443 port too. But other ports are all closed.

I set up a linux server at home, and I need to access it with SSH. However, I can't access my server directly by its IP number,

I don't know why, but probably it's because some rule in the company's firewall or proxy, right? What I did to trick this was create an account on NO-IP.org, which provides me with a DNS to my host. In this moment, my "network" is something like this:

When I try to connect (by my work PC) with "telnet xxxxx.no-ip.org 80", or with Putty, I get a blank screen, no errors, no nothing.

But when I try to do this on another PC, on another network without proxies, I'm successfull. So I really think that is my company proxy thats blocking this way, am I correct?

So I think that the solution for my problem is to create a tunnel, to transport my SSH connection over an HTTP, through the Port 80.

But is there a way to do this?

It would be something like this:

Is that correct?

If so, how could I do this?

I'm trying for a week now, with programs like http-tunnel, proxy-tunnel, and others. But nothing until now.

So, any ideias how could I could communicate my SSH client at work over a HTTP (port 80) connection, over NO-IP, my modem, my server, HTTP to SSH, and finally my SSH server?

Ubuntu Servers :: Allowing FTP Access To External HD Connected To PC?

Apr 19, 2010

I have proftpd setup on my Aspire Revo (which I'm using as an HTPC) so that I can download files to my mac when I feel like watching in bed or whatever. I recently purchased a 1TB WD Elements to store my media. I have proftpd setup so that I can access every file on the computer. However, when I try to gain access to the Elements HD, I get an FTP error from Cyberduck that says:

/media/Elements: no such file or directory

Note that I have not formatted the drive or anything - just set it up straight out of the box. My media is loaded on to it, and XBMC reads the files fine. Is there a way I can enable the hard drive (or the OS) to share these files over FTP, or is this not possible?

Ubuntu :: SMB Shares - Unable To Access External Drives

Dec 6, 2010

I have Ubuntu 10.04 set up on my acer revo, this is connected to a wireless router via ethernet. Next door, is a pc that is running windows XP, and an original XBOX running XBMC. Those are connected via a crossover cable. The XP machine connects to the web wirelessly using my router, and the connections are bridged for XBMC's TV show scrappers. The idea is we use the revo for downloading as it consumes a relatively small amount of electricity. I have two external 1tb drives connected to the revo with Tv shows and movies, I would set up a network share so the XP machine could see them, and the xbox would be able to share the videos present.

I have installed samba, right clicked the drives in question and clicked the sharing options. I have ticked to allow guest access, and write access. This worked! I the shared the /home directory on the revos harddrive using exactly the same method. This worked. However I was no longer able to access the External drives. The UID has remained the same. I then tried unsharing /home, still no joy. Tried resharing /home Home now works, but still the externals don't.

Ubuntu :: Why Don't Have Permission To Access Own External Hard Drive

Dec 13, 2010

I've encountered a very frustrating problem. I have both my desktop and my laptop computer installed with Ubuntu 10.10 recently. And I use a external hard drive formatted in EXT3 as a backup. I created the EXT3 partition on my external hard drive using my laptop, but I cannot access those files using my desktop. What's going on? If one day I lost my laptop, does it mean even if I have backup, I can never access without my laptop??? How can I solve this problem?

General :: Lost Access To Vfat Formatted External HD

Oct 10, 2009

I did not find the solution to my problem reading other posts so I apologize in advance if this question has been solved in a previous thread.I recently started having input/output errors when trying to access directories on my external HD. Today I moved the content of my external HD to a single directory before starting a backup. Since then I can not access this backup directory anymore although the external HD automatically mounts when I turn it on.

I tried my luck starting the external HD in Windows but it wont show up in the explorer. What should I do to be able to mount it in windows and is there any way this would fix the problem?I'm running xubuntu kernel v 2.6.27-14-generic and the external HD is an acomdata.

Hardware :: Ext3 Partition On External HDD Have No Write Access?

Apr 15, 2010

I have an Iomega External Hard Drive 1TB. Problem: Unable to write to Ext3 Partition. How I got here: Started off with going into windows and shrinking it's current NTFS partition down by 50GB. Then used an Ubuntu LiveCD to gain access to GParted and with that 50GB free I formatted it with an Ext3 system. It does this no problems. I then can't write anything to this partition? I've tried doing "chmod 777 /dev/sdb2" but it says Operation not Permitted.

EDIT: Need to be able to use it on YDL 6.2 on my PS3, YDL doesn't have NTFS write support and I want to transfer files larger than 4GB rendering Fat32 useless. No I'm not able to re-size or compress this large file.

Security :: Controlling External Network Access Per Processes?

Aug 13, 2010

That would seem like an elementary feature to be able to enable only a few system applications access to the Internet. That would prevent trojans to download your HD for examples. I looked around and played with iptables but I couldn't not find anything that do the job. I loaded the xt_owner kernel for iptables but the --cmd-owner command is lacking. That was my holy grail but could not get --cmd-owner to work. iptables -I OUTPUT -m owner --cmd-owner "firefox" -j LOG --log-prefix "Testing " How can I protect my machine against the enemy within.

Ubuntu Servers :: Oracle 10 Express - External IP Address Access Failure

I can access oracle on 127.0.0.1:8080/apex address however when I try to access the server on it's external ip address (192.168.1.14) even when I'm on my Ubuntu machine it's failing.

Ubuntu Installation :: Grub Rescue - Access My Files On External - Failing - Drive ?

Jun 28, 2011

I have an hp laptop and i had ubuntu on it for 3 years. my hard drive started to fail a while ago (i had ubuntu 10 on it until 1 week ago) and a then it all went black...I took the laptop to a repair shop, they told me it was the disc, so i bought a new disc, installed it on my laptop and reinstalled the new ubuntu 11. so far so good. i have now a working OS, internet connection and i can in fact type this message.

The thing is: all my files are on the old drive, which doesn't load/boot/start/read anymore. I have tested it on some friends's pc, tried a few HD disgnostic tools, they all send the same message: "fail"

I then tried to mount my old drive (with all my precious files in it) on my laptop as an external drive (usb) hoping that ubuntu 11 could read it as an external usb key: it gets read by the system, but it shows no files at all. it also shows an error message saying the drive can not be mounted, with some "sdb1" thing. i am sorry but i'm really dumb when it comes to tech language.

Then i tried to boot it on start-up but i got the grub rescue> thing and nothing else, just a sad, blinking cursor to recover my files,i have also tried testdisk but couldn't understand very well how to use it, and then photorec, from which i recovered bits and pieces of files, with no name. some of them are just parts some of them are complete.

My problem is: i have to get access to my files, as I use them for work, i couldn't do a back-up recently and i have some real important deadline to meet... for which i need those files. is there any way i could solve the grub issue and have that drive load/mount again as external usb?
