I'm trying to share a some files on a Mac running Snow Leopard with a Ubuntu Linux.
The mount request gets a "permission denied", and a client system log contains "host xx requires a stronger authentication"
I've seen this problem referred to elsewhere, but no solution. This is a hack on a home network, and I really do want to "just do it" and damn the security flaws.
There are some fonts in OSX I want to use into Linux. Do I just have to copy them into some directory? How can I transfer fonts from OSX into Linux?

Recently upgraded Ubuntu home server from 8.04 client to 10.04 server and reinstalled all services therein. One of them is a Netatalk daemon that I configured in a fashion similar to this website:[URL]inder recognizes my server and the afp service, yet when I attempt to log in (using valid credentials), Finder indicates its the wrong username and password. I've tried altering some of the config files and my Google-fu to look for solutions
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was searching for a long time for a Linux Live USB that I can boot my MacBook Pro from. Is there such a distro I can install on Snow Leopard or Windows 7? Update: I've found this:
"isohybrid" CD images (..) are special in that as well as the normal CD-based ISO9660 filesystem they also contain a valid-looking DOS-style partition table. Thus, if you simply copy one of these images raw to a USB stick a normal PC BIOS will boot the image directly. (...)Finally: I'd like to add support into xorriso for creating the nasty HFS hybrid images that are needed for booting Macs. The code that does this in cdrkit is probably some of the worst that I've ever worked with, and,I'd like to get away from it. If only Apple hadn't stupidly built their proprietary platform around this and had used open standards instead
I need a realistic MAC OS X Snow Leopard theme. Also a tutorial because i just got ubuntu about a week ago and I have no clue on how to use it. But i need a mac theme.

Having wiped all of my HDD and installed ubuntu (on macbook), I now want to install snow leopard again.
I've got a DMG that I made from my install DVD, and want to create a bootable USB to install from (because of no optical drive)..
How do I do that from ubuntu?
I think I may have hastily installed Ubuntu on sister's Intel iMac. I'm not much of a techie and she'd asked me to make a dual boot system. I burned the ISO file and ran Boot Camp on her iMac and seemingly everything went through properly. However, upon restarting the system, I get a DOS-like page showing the boot options. Switching to 64-bit OS X resulted in a failed boot as did the option for 32-bit OS X. I'm in a bind as she needs to get back into OS X to work on her project.

Also: is there any known problems running windows and a mackintosh OS?
If someone can give me some insight here I can also provide my computer's specs.
How do I set up a Linux box on my network so that I can SSH into it and control it using VNC from my Mac mini? I've tried ssh'ing into the Linux box, but it's not recognizing who the user is. How do I find that out so that I can set up ssh & VNC on the Linux box?

There's a printer connected to it (HP PSC 1600), and I'd like the other computers on the network to be able to print to that computer. The other computers are running Windows 7, and one is running Snow Leopard.
When I plugged in the printer, Ubuntu recognized it almost immediately and installed it. Wonderful! I then went ahead and set it to be Shared, and hoped for the best. Neither the Windows machine or the OS X machine could find the printer...even after I pointed them directly at what I thought was the CUPS address (\mycomputername:631). To make matters even more confusing, I was able to set up shared folders and have the other computers be able to view them.
I have a Laptop with Ubuntu on it, a Desktop with SnowLep and a server running Ubuntu. What I want to do is have the same Desktop (/home/lucian/Desktop) from server mounted on both other machines. I am using a wireless connection and I want to make it mount at startup. I already have the Ubuntu setup, but not at startup the SNowLep is harder and I could not do it yet.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm unable to get my Ubuntu 10.04LTS to see my Mac 10.6.4 machine.
I've got Samba and AFP enabled under the Mac file sharing preferences.
Attempt1: From Ubuntu, I can see my Mac under Network>Places, but I'm unable to mount the location.
Attempt2: In Ubuntu, I went to Places>Connect to Server and entered the following:
Service: Windows Share
Server: [name of my mac]
Share: [name of my shared folder]
Folder:
User Name: [username]
Domain Name: WORKGROUP
With this entered, I was able to get as far as being prompted for my password, but was still unable to connect.
Attempt3: I followed the same steps above, but left Domain Name blank. Still nothing.
Are there any docs out there for the correct steps? I can only find posts on getting Mac to see Ubuntu, but not the other way around.
Perhaps I should have put this in the apple users section, but I am not an apple user. I am using a MSI WIND U100 running OSX snow leopard retail (GUID/GPT - boots using Chameleon).
I've been feeling guilty preaching open source while not currently practising what I preach so finally downloaded ubuntu 10.10 (netbook version) and using unetbootin I made the ISO bootable on an external USB drive.
I already had an empty 40gb partition which I'd intended to dual boot linux on so I went ahead and booted from the external and installed ubuntu. During the install I divided up the 40GB with 3GB for swap and 37GB as ext4 mount point /
Anyway, it installed and rebooted and loaded ubuntu fine using the default option in the auto installed GRUB. However, although the menu show my OSX it does not boot (ARGH!). When selected there is disk activity for a few seconds and then nothing, just blank screen.
I'm praying that I just need to tinker with grub or something to get my OSX back...
(PS> the [URL] forums have loads of info on dual/triple booting these hackintosh netbooks but mostly involving windows XP or windows 7 rather than ubuntu and also mostly about earlier OSX varieties which booted onto MBR partitions rather that GPT.
I did a full install of Ubuntu on my MacBook Pro (7,1) and I am trying to boot into the OS X disc but the screen always pulls up the Apple logo and loading circle and then greys out and tells me to turn the machine off.
I cannot get into disc utility or anything. It almost seems like the computer doesn't know how to handle the disc. I did not use Refit and the only change I made to the boot loader was blessing the ubuntu partition.
I have ubuntu 10.04, and I want to have all 3 main OS's operating on the same computer.So I have linux as my main system, windows in a virtual machine (virtualbox) and now I have a Mac OS X Snow Leopard CD that I'd like to install onto a 1 TB USB external hard drive...The only problem is that I don't know how to install it to the hard drive, since it plugs in through USB.

I've tried been trying my hardest and tried researching as much as I can to get Mac OS X Version 10.6.3 in VirtualBox in slackware. I've found a tutorial but it was for previous versions of Snow Leop and it hasn't seemed to help me get mine to run. I get to the part where it should start loading the cd (I purchased a copy of Snow Leopard from Amazon) and the closest I've gotten is to what seems to be a bootup and a loading page of some sort. The screen goes gray with a Mac "busy" mouse icon on the screen.

I have 2 laptops, one is a Acer travelmate (running xubuntu) and another one is a Dell studio (Running Windows 7). I also have an iMac..2 external hard drive and a BSNL 3G usb data card. I want to setup a network so i can share my files and internet connection between the 3 systems. I don't know what i want to do is possible or not. what i want to do:
1) connect the usb data card to Acer and share the internet connection using the inbuilt wireless card in the laptop so that the dell and imac can access it.
2) connecting the 2 ext. hard drive to Acer and sharing the files over the same connection( wireless connection used to share internet with other systems) so that i can access the files from my dell and imac. I want to mention that i don't have a router.
if yes..how? and if not why? i'm a newbie..so plz help me..earlier also this forum helped me a lot in learning linux..hope this time also i will have some good experiences.
I booted ubuntu and the included drivers worked beautifully for my Atheros AR8131 PCI Ethernet card on my laptop. I have an OSX Snow Leopard dual boot setup and my Ethernet card does not work. I was wondering if, because OSX is loosely linux based, the network drivers could somehow be loaded into my Snow Leopard install.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI had a drive with a partition layout like so:
~50gig Windows 7 - NTFS
~100gig Ubuntu - EXT3
~100gig Snow Leopard - HFS+
~100gig Extended Partition
-- ~100gig Swap Disk - exFat
I wanted to delete the Snow Leopard partition and format the Swap Disk partition to something else. exFat was causing major file size bloat on small files. QT sdk bloated to like 11 gigs or something ridiculous like that. Anyways, I loaded up an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS live cd and gparted then deleted the Snow Leopard partition. Gparted said "Mission Accomplished" and tried to rescan the drive, but never found it. At this point I restarted the computer, a dell laptop, which didn't boot with an unable to find a bootable device error. The ubuntu live cd doesn't see the drive anymore. gparted scans for drives indefinitely and fdisk -l has no output.
i think its XNU "darwin" that the macs use correct? is there even a way to determine which is better? i mean obviously the linux kernel gets updated more often so that would lead me to believe - and the fact they're both based roughly on the same unix architecture.
also, who is it thats doing the linux kernel updating? when we see all the distros getting the linux kernel update to 2.56 or whatever across all of them - whos doing that? is it Linus??
Is it possible to install Snow Leopard 10.6.6 VMware AMD edition (which I downloaded) on VMware linux? It is under Windows 7 so I just need to know if everything of VMware linux (like Hardware Virtualization) is the same under linux as for Windows.
