Fedora Networking :: Create Shared Folders And Stream To Other Pc's
Jun 5, 2011
network with a laptop with windows 7, a wireless all-in-one dcp-585cw, eminent em7075-dts.
it's possible to create shared folders in windows, in order to make them accesble for other pc's, devices, such as the eminent em7075-dts multimedia player.
when i start windows mediaplayer ( a requirement), i can browse over my pc when i am on the interface of the em7075 ( what you see on tv when go to the hdmi channell.) in other words, i have the option to play / stream a movie from my pc, over the network to the em7075.

I have set up a shared folder on my Ubuntu computer and I want everyone on the network to be able to see and use those folders, whether they have Ubuntu, Mac OSX or Windows XP. So far, I am able to view some Mac computers on the network and see the Windows network too - from Ubuntu. However, I am not able to see the Ubuntu computer on Mac or Windows yet. I think I should be trying to use Samba, but I am not sure how. I used
Code:
sudo smbpasswd -a [user]
to set up a password but I am not sure where to go in Windows or in Mac. Can anyone who is good in those systems tell me how I can see and hook up to my Ubuntu computer on the same network?
On this helpful page [URL]... I got as far as the last step and realized here:
Quote:
If you are still unable to access the shared folder, check that the folder sharing service is running on the Ubuntu computer:
Press System → Administration → Services
Find the Folder sharing service (samba) and ensure that the checkbox next to it is checked
Press Close
I don't have a "Services" icon in my Administration drop down menu!

I have just upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7 and I just couldn't figure out how to connect to a shared folder in Ubuntu. It was pretty easy to do in Windows XP.

I'm looking to set up some kind of a server so my friends can access my music folder. I've managed to set it up so that users on my LAN can do this, but I can't figure out how to make this available on the internet. Is there an easy way to do this? how to set up an FTP server, but none of these tell me how to configure my router, or what IP address I will need to access the folder from the internet.

I have two computers in the house that I have shared folders and one has a shared printer. I have a desktop running 9.04 and a laptop running 9.10. The desktop has several shared folders and a shared HP printer. The laptop only has one shared folder. Everything was working fine up until a couple days ago. I went on the laptop to access one of the desktop shared folders, and nothing shows up under "places, network" except windows network.
It no longer shows that the printer is currently shared either, but the funny thing is that I can still print to the desktop from the laptop.I just can't figure out how to access the shared folders.

I've been flipping through distros a lot lately, trying to find which one best suits me. I like Ubuntu quite a bit.
I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on a desktop pc and I'm having and issue with shared folders. I set up a test share by right clicking on Documents in my home folder, and clicking on Sharing Options. Then I checked the box to "Share this folder" and the box to "allow others to create and delete files in this folder". I click "Create Share" and in a new window, it prompts me for nautilus to add permissions automatically. So I allow it to do that.
Then, from a Virtualbox Ubuntu machine, I can access the share and do everything I want to do (view, create, modify files). However, once I reboot my Ubuntu 9.10 machine, that has the shared folder on it, it's no longer shared when I log in and check on it.
The sharing emblem has disappeared from the folder icon, but if I go into Sharing Options, the boxes are still checked. If I simply unshare and re-share the folder, it gets the sharing emblem again and the Ubuntu virtual box can access it again.

Prior to upgrading from Karmic to Lucid I could access shared folders on my partners XP system. Now when I attempt to connect to the shared folder I am unable to see the folders.When I display the network I can see MSHOME but thereafter end up with the following :"Unable to mount locationFailed to retrieve share list from server"Strangely enough I am able to connect to another Lucid system easily enough from my laptop.In each instance both my Lucid systems and the XP one are connected via wireless and as far as I can see the setup on the XP system is networked OK.

I have two Ubuntu 10.04 computers ans several windows computers on a common ip address on my LAN, I cannot connect to the shared folders on the Ubuntu machines but all windows machines connect fine. I see the Ubuntu computers in networks on both Linux machines. When I try to access a shared folder on the Ubuntu machines it ask me for the user name, domain, and password even though I set Remote Desktop sharing to "Configure network to automatically accept connections"

I always find myself stuck when it comes to sharing folders across networks.
I just installed ubuntu on a pc, with 2 other pc's in my network - one runs Windows XP and the other Windows 7.
When I go to Network -> Windows Network -> WORKGROUP I can see both Windows computers. But when I try to open either one of them, it asks me for a username and password. Now, neither of the Windows machines have passwords (they just login automatically).
(I haven't used Ubuntu since the earlier versions and remember having to go through samba and set up config files, etc.).

I am networking from Ubuntu to Win 7. On Windows I have C:Users shared. In this directory I see two folders (or users, if you like): "Public" and "userr_" On UBUNTU when I go to Network > SERVER > Users I do not see either of the two folders that I see on Windows. I see a different one named "Default". I can access my optical drive on my windows machine fine via UBUNTU, it is just not behaving properly for this shared folder named "Users"

I configured Samba so that this laptop running Maverick would show up on the network so I could share files between the two. When I view the network on the laptop the windows shares show up, and I can access them; but when I view the network on Windows is when the problems start.
I view the network in Windows and this laptop shows up, but every time I try to open the Public folder (only folder shared) it won't let me in. I get some sort of Windows error message about being unable to access the folder and how I might not have permission to access it, and then at the very bottom it says something like 'file path not found'.
I tried to change the permissions in the properties for my public folder but I every time I tried to change the settings in the access box it would reset it back to blank (-) immediately after I changed it.
I'm not sure what the issue could be. Prior to purchasing this new laptop I was running Karmic on my old laptop and the networking between the two machines worked flawlessly. I'm hoping someone on the forum can help me with this problem.

I have a home network consisting of a Desktop running Windows 7 Ultimate and a laptop running Ubuntu 10.10. Nautilus won't allow me to open Windows shared folders from the browser by just clicking on the icons. That is to say, clicking on Network in the bookmark pane and opening Workgroup doesn't do anything. Sometimes I get a "can not mount: failed to retrieve share list from server" error, sometimes my Windows box just isn't visible at all. All my shared folders on the laptop are visible and rw accessible from the Windows desktop.
I should add that if I hit ctrl-L in Nautilus and manually enter "smb://<server-name>/share/" in the address bar, it mounts and opens the specified folder just fine. I have some of the folders already manually mounted to various locations in fstab.
I've found the issue with Games for Windows Live, and uninstalled that from the Windows computer. I'm not using firewalls on either computer for now to eliminate that as a possibility. Since the Ubuntu Laptop seems to be the one with the problem, I'll focus on that for now.
Code:
$ nc -zv 192.168.1.100 445
Connection to 192.168.1.100 445 port [tcp/microsoft-ds] succeeded!
$ nc -zv 192.168.1.100 139
Connection to 192.168.1.100 139 port [tcp/netbios-ssn] succeeded!
[Code].....

I need to share some files from my Ubuntu 10.10 box to others on my home network so I created a shared folder, right-clicked it and chose "Sharing Options", chose "Share This Folder" and then I was told that additional software is needed to enable sharing. I agreed and software was downloaded and installed. But when I clicked "Create Share" button and told Nautilus to automatically add permissions for others to access my folder, I was slapped with an error message saying "Failed to execute child process "testparm" (no such file or directory).
So how to proceed and get sharing working again? I installed Samba afterwards via Synaptic and assigned the folder for sharing, but I don't see the special "arrows-both-ways" sign for this folder.

I am trying to share folders between my laptop and desktop. The desktop runs Ubuntu 10 ,and the laptop I'm dual-booting between pclinux OS and another OS. I can't see either machine from either machine. The desktop shows a "windows network" when I go to the network location in file manager. When I run PC Linux, I can't even see the desktop which runs Linux as well, and I've tried to configure shares in the PC Linux OS Control Center, but I obviously failed. I installed gshare on the Ubuntu machine, and PC Linux has GUI tools(whew!) to configure NFS, SMB, and Deb-whatever the other one's name is. As a new convert, I've went into properties,permissions, because it's what I'm familiar with. I just wish someone would tell me if I should maybe just go back to the other OS or not, as I've had so many problems every since trying the switch. I really like this system, but it seems as if you need to be some kind of computer programmer or something to be able to do the most basic things (install software,wireless,share files). I'm not a stupid person, and what I lack in knowledge, I compensate for in desire to learn.

I am setting up a lubuntu nas with all of my music, movies, etc on it. I want to give my kids access to my mp3 directory, so I can move all of the kid appropiate music into the root of my mp3 dir, in the same order I have all of my music sorted. Under the Music folder, I have them sorted, in folders, by letter. So A, B, C, D, etc... Now, in those folders are the respective artists. So where there may be something approipate in the P folder (say, Paramore), there is something inapproipate (say, Pantera)Now, when the kids go to the P folder, I don't want them to even see the Pantera folder. I just want them to see the Paramore folder. I tried a test using chmod 711 and chmod 700 on a directory with a test user, and the user can't access the directory, but can still see it

I have set samba shared folders on my ubuntu 10.04, which Windows users on my network use. The problem is, even that I leave the computer on, they cannot access the shared folders until I login with my account to the computer.This is a real problem since I either need to come to the office, login with NX or tell them the password which I don't want to do

I am trying to access shared folders in Virtual Box with Host OS being Windows7 and Guest OS is Fedora. Did anyone face a similar problem? I have been going through many solutions but none of them worked out. I am able to keep the required folders in Shared Folders making them Auto-Mount and Permanent. I tried to install Guest Additions from Devices, but I am not sure how to install the Guest-Additions software in Fedora. how to proceed so that I can access files in my shared folder.

I am new to Fedora and Linux. I have installed Fedora 12 on virtual box and installed Guest Additions. Later I did upgrade Fedora updates and noticed that my Guest Additions features were missing like Seamless mode, shared folders etc. Hence I had install Guest Additions again. So every time when I do Fedora updations, do I need to re-install Guest Additions or am I missing something very obvious?

I want to create a "Shared Memory" in linux, then create multiple "Shared Objects" that can access to a Table for example; And one of them can write something into the Table and the other can access and read it, so that these operations can be handled by programmer! I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and I've set it's runlevel at 3 (I have commandline environment now!) I've searched the Internet so much, but couldn't find a good sample code for this! I have no experience about it and need your help to introduce me a sample code about it and advise me how to compile and use it with "GCC"?!

I have a fresh install of CentOS 5.5. I am trying to browse to the Windows machines on my network (Places > Network Servers > Windows Network), but I get a blank window. I am able to ping the Windows machines using their IP address, but not by their name. What do I need to do to be able to see the Windows machines and also to connect to shared folders on these machines? So far I have tried starting SMB (via System > Administration > Server Settings > Services). I have also tried changing my smb workgroup to "WORKGROUP" (the default was mygroup which did not match my Windows machines.
