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 ..

Ubuntu :: Change The Mounting Point Of A Usb External Drive From '/media/disk' To '/media/Movies'

Jan 16, 2011

I was trying to change the mounting point of a usb external drive from '/media/disk' to '/media/Movies'

Here is were the stupid part takes over... I right clicked on the desktop icon for the device and selected Properties. From there I selected the Volume tab and in there I changed the mounting point to '/media/Movies' It accepted it and said the changed would take place when I unmounted it and remounted it. However, when I did this it now says it cannot be mounted as it says mount_point contains invalid characters usually /

Unfortunately, now I cannot get back into the properties to remove my error.

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'.

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.

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 Installation :: Install Without External Media

Feb 8, 2010

I was recently given an old laptop that runs Windows XP. Obviously, I want to put Ubuntu on it instead. However, the laptop is so old that it does not have a working USB connection; nor does it have a CD tray. I am aware of using Wubi to install an Ubuntu system within Windows, but I was wondering if there were any ways to install a clean Ubuntu system right onto the hard drive, without Windows being required. Or, perhaps, does Wubi have some feature to allow full-drive installation?

Unless I am logged in as root, I am unable to mount an external device (such as a flash drive or music player) This is what I get: I can, of course, pull up a root terminal and use the mount command, but I don't want every user to have access to the root terminal, but I would like everyone to be able to mount external devices. Code: Linux debian 2.6.26-1-686 #1 SMP Sat Jan 10 18:29:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Automounting External Media In Suse 11.1

Feb 23, 2010

I have tried unsucessfully to enable automounting for my 40 GB External Hard Drive in Suse 11.1. I am aware that there should be a line added to the Policy Kit to enable this, but the issue is that all of these files are .xml format and I can't seem to open them for editing no matter what program I choose to open them. I have Device Automounter/Notifier Plasmoid and it shows the SD reader with card in it, but it does not show the USB external HD.

Is there any other way to change this so I do not have to attach this external manually every time I turn this computer on? All of my music rests within my external and it gets to be very annoying when you have to manually mount to listen to music all the time. I'm using Suse 11.1, KDE. The external is a 40GB HD from Seagate.

Ubuntu :: Writing To External Media Is Slow To Finalize?

May 21, 2010

I have a USB hub on my desk, and also a multi-card reader in the front-panel of the computer (connected to a USB PCI card).

I have found that when I write files to a USB "thumb" drive plugged into the USB hub, or to a card in the multi-card reader (I have tried SD, SDHC, CompactFlash and MMC) the file is written quickly. The progress bar that appears on the screen goes to almost 100%, but then stops...

If I try to unmount the filesystem (either umount on the command line, or MB3 and eject or unmount option) I get a message that the device is busy. Sometimes, this stays busy for three minutes.

The filesystems on these cards are almost always FAT32; they are for digital cameras, media players, or are for exchanging files between home and office (where I use WinXP).

General :: Different Graphic Cards Drivers While Booting From External Media

Sep 14, 2010

I am booting a certain system of mine with ubuntu 9.10 from external HDD. I am satisfied with the setup and it works fine, however I would like to modify it so that I can choose which graphic card drivers to load during the boot time. Specifically I would like to choose between:

nvidia proprietary driver
ati proprietary driver
generic driver

Currently if I am using proprietary drivers then dont boot into X, delete xorg.conf, start gdm and reconfigure the system using jockey (for hardware drivers).

What would be the steps to make this (semi-)automatic and avoid restarting X?

Where could one find examples of such scripts?

Ubuntu :: External DVD Drive Vanishes From List On Inserting Media?

Jan 20, 2010

I just bought an external USB DVD (ASUS SDRW-08D15-U) to use on a Kubuntu-based LinuxMCE system. The idea is to set up the computer in the basement and to retain the ability to play DVDs on the 2nd floor home theater. Unfortunately the DVD would not play movies, music, or show files when connected to the Kubuntu/LinuxMCE machine. I tested the drive on my windows laptop and it worked fine. Then I connected it to my Ubuntu desktop machine and got the same behavior as on the MCE machine.

This leads me to believe that my hardware is functioning fine, but I have an Ubuntu/Kubuntu issue. I figure if I can get the drive to work on my Ubuntu desktop, then I can apply the fix to my MCE machine. I opened the Palimpsest Disk Utility (System>Administration>Disk Utility) and saw my internal DVD listed (ASUS DRW-1612BL). When I hot-plugged the external DVD it appeared underneath the internal drive. But here is the strange part - when I insert any type of media into the external drive it Vanishes from the list, accompanied by a repetitive pattern of clicking and whirring noises. Very mysterious.

General :: Set NTFS (fuseblk) External Media To Mount With UTF-8 Filesystem

General :: Back Up My Media Library To An External Hard Drive From Ubuntu?

Aug 19, 2010

My media library isn't huge, but it isn't tiny (~50 GB). Every month or so, I just manually copy ~/Music, ~/Pictures, and ~/Videos to my EHD, and delete the old backup. But this is far from ideal. It's pretty slow, for one thing (~50 GB all together). It also isn't versioned, so if I ever want to go back multiple versions, I'm out of luck.

Is there any simple, stable, incremental way to do this? I'm open to using traditional version control systems like Git for it, although I haven't used them before for anything other than code. Command-line is fine (especially if it's scriptable). I only need to back up these 3 folders--anything that's not media is stored in my Dropbox.

Debian Multimedia :: Can't Access Real Media?

Aug 15, 2010

I'm using 32 bit (i686) Debian Lenny. The multimedia repo is installed, w32codecs is installed, VLC and Kaffeine are both installed. I was trying to listen to some audio files on the NPR site (link will follow) and find that I can't open the files with anything I have installed. The Linux version of the Realplayer isn't in the repo (and I don't really want to install it after some of the things I've read about it) but I gotta have my NPR and there's no way I'll EVER go back to a M$ OS. How can I listen to these files without downloading them and then uploading them to a media conversion site? I'm usually very good with google but this one has me stumped.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: How To Access Remote Media

Apr 16, 2010

I finally got Amarok and other media players working with the local mp3 files. However, I keep my files on a server. This setup works fine for Windows so it hasn't been a problem until now. The server is Ubuntu and I share the files using SAMBA. I know (very little) about NFS but I need SAMBA for the Windows clients so there is no NFS setup.I can see the SAMBA shares in Konqueror but I cannot open SAMBA shares with Amarok, XMMS, or anything else. I think I need to mount the SAMBA shares on OpenSUSE (11.2) to access them with Amarok, etc. I would then include these shares in the fstab file on my OpenSUSE box to include them at boot. Is this correct?

General :: File-permissions On Read-only Media: Allowing For Access Without Chmod?

Mar 14, 2010

I've hit a wall here; I'm attempting to find some way by which to view files and cd into directories on a device mounted read-only. So I need the permissions to read, write, execute (and the same with directories), but chmodding is out of the question because I don't want to alter the drive one iota.

I guess what I could do--what I was thinking of initially--was to dupe the whole drive and then mess with permissions. This wouldn't affect the original (actually I'm working on a duplicate of the original, but I'm treating it as if it were the original) but I was hoping for something that would maintain data integrity. This is a forensic application and not altering the data is very important.

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:

750 GB Generic External
750 GB / GiB / 750,156,374,016 bytes

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.

Ubuntu :: Home Network - Media Drives Are Automatically Mounted To Allow Access If The Admin User Is Not Logged In?

Jul 9, 2010

This is the set up I have: PC downstairs by a tv, with 3TB of storage containing my media, connected to the tv too. HTPC upstairs by another tv and connected to it. A few laptops and other desktops around the house which are windows based

I want the downstairs pc to act as a file server and to run my torrent client, it is running Ubuntu desktop version and has xbmc installed too for use with the tv. The upstairs htpc has xbmc live on and will access the media from the file server. What I am looking to do is to be able to log into my ubuntu machine remotely from a laptop running windows so I can manage the files and add torrents for download etc, but for this to be a complete remote session, rather than taking control over what is already being shown on the downstairs pc, like VNC does in windows.

I have two user accounts set up on the main ubuntu machine, the admin account and a media user account which is set to go straight to xbmc after log in. Also how can I make sure that the media drives are automatically mounted to allow access if the admin user is not logged in?

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.
