Networking :: Fstab / Mtab Hardmount Remote Machine
Apr 21, 2011
I am trying to get a mount in my root directory to a folder on a remote machine so that a log in is not required to access it. I seem to be having some problems with permissions though.
So far I have:
- added the machine to my /etc/hosts file
- added remotemachine:/data /auto nfs ro,soft 0 0 to my /etc/fstab
- added remotemachine:/data /auto nfs rw,soft,addr=10.112.33.4 0 0 to my /etc/mtab file
- added /hostmachinefolder mymachineip(rw) to the host /etc/exports file
However when I mount -a on my machine I get:
mount: remotemachine:/folder failed, reason given by server: Permission denied

My HD contains a Windows, Fat32, two Linux & swap partitions. Recently, I had to recover my partition table with "testdisk", due to a foolish attempt to resize a partition.I recovered all partitions, with the exception of my root partition. I left that unallocated, then reformatted it with GParted, to be of a larger size.All data has been recovered & the PC works fine, just as it always has.The wierd thing is that the original "root" partition seems to co-exist on the same partition as my Fat32 data(???)GParted shows my root partition as almost full, when it should only be about half full....then my Fat32 partition shows empty, when it should be about 3GB full. Root should only be about 5GB, not almost 9GB.I believe that my mtab & fstab are corrupt relative to the partitions that GParted lists, and need to be fixed. However, I don't know where to start.?

I've observed a problem which stops me from mounting my external hard disk into my machine. I used a bash script to perform the mounting operation; but the script faced error, Whereas the mount command works properly correct when I use it directly in command line.
#!/bin/bash
mount_point= fdisk -l | sed -n '$p' | cut -c1-9
mount $mount_point /mnt
the code should have split the mount location of external hard disk in /etc/fstab and pass the mount_point' variable to mount command, but it doesn't.
ERROR:can't find /mnt in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab

I can ssh from my local machine (Ubuntu 10.4 64bit) to a remote Linux server. When I try to copy a file back to my machine (or just ssh to my machine) I get the following error - "port 22: No route to host".ifconfig on my local machine gives one ip address for "lo Link encap:Local Loopback" and one for "wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet"; I tried ssh both.I work on a laptop with a wireless router (which is also the modem)

I have recently installed fedora 14 and configured vpn to access my work network. I need to access some windows machines which although I can ping I cannot remote desktop into. When I go to Applications>Internet> Remote Desktop Viewer and put in the machine name (either just the machine name or the FQDN including the domain name) I get an error "Connection to <machinename> was closed".

Server: Ubuntu Server Edition 8.04
/currently firewalled to only allow client ip
Client: Ubuntu Desktop 8.04
/currently firewalled to only allow server ip
Same userid and groups set up on on both. I have taken two linux courses and can maneuver around fairly well, but am still pretty newbie at all this. We have loaded Samba on a server and created a Samba share. I AM able to access that share via Windows Vista, but have not been able to successfully mount the share on the Ubuntu desktop via the fstab file. I have tried the following ways: serverip:/path/shareddirectory /net ext3 user,sync 0 0 and the samba way..
//serverip/sharename /net smbfs username=x,password=x
After modifying fstab, I reboot. No luck since that either way.Only ONCE after modifying it samba way, I was prompted to enter credentials, but after login I was unable to view the files on the server. From this point on either way, if I run commmand 'mount -a' the response is "Special device serverip:/path/sharedirectory does not exist" Also! I am able to ping client-to-server, but not server-to-client.

From a Fedora 9 server (I think!) I'm trying to mount an nfs drive from a Mac Server. You see, a couple weeks back this was working fine but now there seems to be a problem. I've tried using the mount command and found the following line in the /etc/fstab doc...
Code:
<IP ADDRESS>:/remote/nfs/directory /directory/to/mount/on nfs defaults 0 0
It was commented so I uncommented it, hoping this would be a quick and easy resolution =). Anyway, it didn't work and when I run mount -av the server timesout. So on the Mac Server, I enabled Samba sharing preferences and tried adding this to fstab,
Code:
<IP ADDRESS>:/remote/nfs/directory /directory/to/mount/on cifs username=name,password=password 0 0
When I run mount -a it hangs. I guess I'm doing everything totally wrong. I can SSH into the MAC Server and use tar, rsync etc with no problem. But I really need this drive to mount as it once use to. It's been suggested to me that the NFS or networking module on the Linux box might be broken.

I spent all day learning some concepts of Samba which I left while preparing for RHCE.One of them is how to permanently mount (fstab entry) windows shared folder.Manually mount command is running fine for me.

I have my main box, Ubuntu 10.04lts, and I am trying to use remote desktop viewer to see the desktop on a Windows XP machine. The machines are side by side The Ubuntu box is hardwired to my network router, and the XP machine is connected via wireless. Both get to the internet fine, and I can ping the Ubuntu box from the XP box. But, I cannot ping the XP box from the Ubuntu box, and Remote Desktop Viewer won't establish a connection to the VNC server I have running on the XP box.

I've had two hd's in my box forever. for more space and backup reasons. Well I have started running the Debian Squeeze distro since December. I've had many issues, some are still unresolved. but now I'm running into major headaches with the fstab. Specifically dealing with/wondering why UUID's are used instead of the old /dev/hd? I was a little annoyed when I tried Kubuntu to find /dev/sd? used instead of /dev/hd? but that was workable. But the UUID's are a nightmare. Here's my problem.
My main box is finally giving up the ghost. The mobo is dying. So in order to do some tests I took my hd bundle (my two hard drives with their cables) physically out of the box and temp installed them in a test box. I wanted to do some benchmark and other tests. I got all kinds of errors. I found that the system wasn't recognizing the UUID's listed in fstab. My concern is when the new mobo gets here next week I won't simply be able to plug the hd's in like I always have been and just let Linux reconfigure itself (Debian used to be good about this). I really don't want to have to clean reinstall if it's not needed.
So for this I have two questions. WHY developers decided to drop using /dev/hd? or even /dev/sd? ?
And is it possible to revert fstab's listings back to the old /dev/hd? settings. In debian fstab had lines commented out showing how each partition was listed in it's /dev/hd? status during install.
I'm getting really sick of all these archane changes in ALL aspects of linux that don't seem to have any good explaination or need.

I have a VPS by my host running on a linux server, and they have given me SSH access. Is it possible to remote desktop into the server, like you can on Windows, so that I can physcially click on things rather than having to use SSH commands?
Surely this must be running on Fedora or Ubuntu etc. so there is some type of OS. You would probably have to install something on the servers end I suppose but just want to know if its possible and what the options are.

I'm wondering if it's possible to control a TTY on a remote machine via SSH. I'm aware of ssh's -t option, but it doesn't seem to do what I want. Basically, I'm thinking in terms of VNC-like operation, where the remote user and local user see the same thing, only instead of a GUI, they both see TTY1 (or 2, or etc). Is that doable, or no?
