If I want to share a directory called /home/me, would I go to my /etc/exports file and share /home/me/* or would I share /home/me ? I am unsure of how to type this into the file.

I am running Ubuntu 9.04, and wish to share a folder to be accessed without logging in via Windows Vista. If I set up the share through the nautilus right-click menu and enable "Guest Account", the share is inaccessible. The folder shows up, but it fails to mount. Vista says that it can see the computer, but not the shared folder.
The folder is
/home/william/shared
The only way I can get it to work is if I change the permissions of the folder /home/william to allow Others to access files.
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.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an ubuntu server set up in which i would like my shared media directory to be accessable with multiple usernames / passwords because I use my admisistrator username and password for samba as well, but I do not want to give out that password to all clients in my house. And, I would like to have write permissions but keep other users to read only. Is this possible or do i need to just make one separate username / password for samba sharing?

I just joined LinuxQuestions and find no Forum specific to command-line syntax questions, so I'll post it here. Here is the question. I can use:
cp -vr --parents /a/b/c/this /x/y
to create a directory /x/y/a/b/c/this containing this and everything under this.
But how could I create a directory x/y/b/c/this (ie omitting a)? I could MOVE to /a/ and then use
cp -vr --parents b/c/this /x/y
but I really don't want to do the MOVE (and can think of circumstances where I might not be able to).
I'm really looking for something exactly similar to the
tar -C DIRECTORY
switch that allows one to make a virtual move to the directory DIRECTORY before commencing the tar operation.
I'm starting to learn bash scripting and I can't figure out what's wrong with the following.
Code:

When I learn shell script, I want to add my own PATH variable to system previous variables. I find that my linux has the below PATH variables (in the end of this message). It shows 'No such file or directory' although I verify that all the directories exist. Some directories are empty indeed. This will result that warning?
I want to make the present PATH variables correct before I add mine.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a couple directories in the following format:

My desired structure is:

----+ Dir A
-------- file1
-------- file3
----+ Dir B
-------- file2-1 [or something so that the two files don't overwrite]
-------- file2-2
----+ Dir C
-------- file2
-------- file1
Basically, I would like to combine all the directories that I can, without deleting/overwriting any files. I have looked at Rsync, but I could not find the correct options to do what I wanted.
To clarify: I have two kernels, (a) one that "works" and (b) another that I am experimenting with. Each has it's own modules directory tree (in /lib/modules) and they are mutually incompatible ie kernel (a) will only work with module tree (a) and similarly for (b). I have two boot entries in lilo.conf which can be selected from the boot menu.
Now the problem is, what if something goes wrong when I boot to (b)? I'd like to be able to return to the safe option (a), but the current module tree is (b) and it won't work with kernel (a). I could use the Slack installationCD and rename the module directory (I presume this would work)but is there a simpler way, whereby I can select the correct module tree at boot time (or set it in lilo.conf)?
I found it easiest to embed narp into the gtk+-2.0 installation because all I needed to do was tweak the Makefile.am and Makefile.in files and let configure do the rest.This is a hack. I've failed at getting my own makefiles to work.

I have been searching for 90 minutes for something that I "think" should be fairly easy. I'm pretty new to Bash Scripting so I could be completely wrong. Then again it may be a weird request to even need something like this. But here it is.I have a script written to convert data from one of our software version to another. The only thing I need to add to it is a "check to make sure the user running the script is in the /tmp directory".
View 7 Replies View Relatedi have an A machine, which has an ftp server (fedora core 8) and is sharing a directory with a machine B (fedora core 8 too), which has no ftp server and nothing special on it.
When machine B try to access to shared directory,there is no problem and works perfect.But when i share a directory on machine B and try to access to it from machine A, it doesn't work. I know that something related with ftp server make sharing work for machine A, but why? or what is it? is there a program or service that i need besides of nfs and rpcbind-portmap?. I had used nfs to share directories and i used rhel 5 to test all this things and happens the same.
When ever i open vim, i get the error that the following error: E484: Can't open file/abcd/configFiles/vim/syntax/syntax.vim There was a .vimrc file in my home folder that i have removed.
Still i keep getting the same error. Presently in my home folder there is no .gvimrc or .vimrc file.
But still i keep getting the same error. I am not too sure where this file is mentioned.
Background info: The SHELL has been changed from tcsh to bash Earlier i had created a .vimrc file in tcsh, i have removed the .vimrc in bash SHELL.
I am trying to setup 2 individual FTP users. They should both have access to the same directory. They both need to be able to read/write into the directory. But, I want them not to be able to write to each other's files (e.g. delete, remove, rename, etc.).
So let's say the shared directory is: /home/ftp/shared/
UserA needs read/write access to /home/ftp/shared/. UserA should only have write access to his own files.
UserB also needs read/write access to /home/ftp/shared/. UserB should only have write access to his own files.
It would be a unix box of sorts, but that is the only restriction. I could use whatever software. I am currently thinking pure-ftpd or vsftp but I am open to all ideas.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have recently installed Fedora 12 on a desktop PC and as my first experience of Linux, I am really impressed. I have now installed several packages and have reached a point where I would like to share the PC with other user (family members in the same house).My question seems so basic I am almost embarrassed to ask it but could some one explain the best way to create a local shared directory that could be used to store files accessible to everyone (e.g. music, photos, videos, documents etc.)There will be three users and as it is a family PC, they will all have full access.
Reading posts from various forums, I am little confused about what is the best way to proceed (i.e. what is Linux best practice). The simpler of the two methods is to simply make the directory using the mkdir command, followed by the chmod command to assign full access rights. Fore example if the local shared directory is called 'share'. The alternative approach assigns a group, a group administrator etc and then adds users to the group.
This is a USB shared drive, with an ext3 partition. The partition is located at /dev/sdb1. I use Samba to share /media/tiga1000/samba/public, and everyone on the network can add/delete files to it. Specifically, this is our media drive, and we upload a lot of pictures to it, since me and my sister are amateur photographers. Under /public/images/camera_pictures/2010, I have 3 directories. 01_january, 02_february, and 03_march. The directory that has been corrupted is 03_march, and when I say corrupted, I mean that I cannot open it. It acts as a unknown file type that can't be opened.
Here is the file properties of it:
Code:
drsmall@mycroft:/media/tiga1000/samba/public/images/camera_pictures/2010$ ls -lah
total 960K
drwxr-xr-x 4 nobody nogroup 4.0K 2010-03-11 21:22 .

How I should go about recovering it. Somehow it lost it's directory switch. Should I unmount the drive and run fsck on it? I would like to be able to recover these images, if it is at least possible!
