Feb 11, 2010I'm running OpenSuse 11.2. I've got it running mostly the way I want and it connects to my wireless internet no problem. I have a external hard-drive on my Windows machine setup as a share folder. I can mount the drive with:
Code:
mount //10.13.23.2/D /home/james/mnt/win However when I do mount like this it doesn't give my any read/write privliages on the drive. Also on a slightly different issue but still mounting related I have my HDD partitioned into four main drives (not including swap etc). They are my Windows drive, a seperate storage partition formatted for Windows, my main linux drive and a seperate parition for linux storage.
I want to have my Windows drive, my Windows storage drive and my linux storage drive all mounted on boot. I tried adding these to fstab, and they mount fine but again I have no read/write permissions. My fstab looks like this:
Code:
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD2500BEVT-35ZCT0_WD-WXE908AE4273-part5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD2500BEVT-35ZCT0_WD-WXE908AE4273-part6 / ext4
[code]....
Lastly I would like my Windows Share drive to mount on boot but I have been advised that I would need to write a shell script for this, to do network checks as obviously I won't always be connecting to my network.
OpenSUSE Network :: Trouble With Permissions On Mounted Network Drives
Jan 15, 2010I use Suse 11.2. I mounted 5 folders from fstab. 2 of them work but 3 do not. The 3 folders that do not work let me enter them, and they let me see everything. I can even create or delete a folder on them, if I am just browsing with konqueror. The problem is that I have a program that will not read them. It's a program made for my company and apparently it will only read folders that have all of their permissions set to read and write. The program will read the first two because their permissions are set to Owner, Group, and Others, can view and modify content. (The network folders are all windows server 2003 computers). The 3 folders the program will not read are set to Owner can view and modify content, but Group and Others are "can view content" If I try to change those permissions even in root, it tells me that access is denied.

Jun 6, 2010I recently got a new external drive and backed all my files up on the new external: movies, music, docs, etc. Now all my files have permission rights to the root only. I was able to change this by open up nautilis from a terminal in root and change the permission on the whole drive to my current user so I can access the files, copy & delete the files. I wanted to change some music file information in Kynamo this morning and was not able to since all the individual files still belong to the root. How can I change this permission issue without having to change each individual file?

Jan 21, 2010Prelude: OpenSUSE 11.2 (2.6.31.8-0.1-desktop), installed Novell client 2.0 SP2 (novell-client-2.0-sp2-sle11-i586.iso).
I found that if any usual user is logged into a NDS-tree, then _local_ root has full access to user's network shares, including the user's home directory located on remote Netware-server. Is it by design or
have I missed something? Nevertheless in windows local admin has no access to network resources mounted of any other user. If you runas shell (as admin) then admin in principle can't "see" network shares which were mounted (connected) by other users - they are accessible ("visible") per session.

Jul 16, 2011I'm mounting a cifs share via fstab, and using both the uid and gid for the permissions when mounted (I did try with just gid set too..) My user account is part of the 'users' group.
gid=users; I get read only
uid=nobody, gid=users; read only
uid=veehexx, gid=users; RW access.
Why is that? surely if permissions are set to use groups rather than users, then it should work. How do I get around this? All my knowledge is based in the Microsoft camp - if a user is in a group, then you can assign that group to a resource and it will work.
OpenSUSE Network :: Don't Have The Right Permissions With The Client To Rename Files
Jan 30, 2011I just performed a fresh installation of openSUSE 11.3 and ISPConfig 3 on my server. I read through the article "The Perfect Server - openSUSE 11.3 x86_64 [ISPConfig 3]" and followed the instructions closely. Everything went smoothly.
I went into ISPConfig 3 and set up a DNS zone, email mailbox, FTP client, and website all for a client I created, hoping to use the client as the main account for a web site I want to host on my server. After I finished with this, I logged onto the server through FileZilla using my newly created client's information. It took me to the "main directory" with the folders cgi-bin, log, ssl, tmp, and web. When I open "web" I see an html file named "index.html."
I tried loading a mock website into the folder, also with an index.html file, and the files transferred over properly except the mock index.html file. The program changed the name to index.html.1. I tried to delete the original index.html file but was not allowed to. I then tried to rename it to something other than index.html and kept receiving a 550 Rename/move failure message. Can anyone point me in the right direction or help me resolve this issue?
I'm thinking perhaps I don't have the right permissions with the client to rename files, but since that's the account I want as the "owner" of this web site, I need to change the permissions so I can. I tried changing the ISPConfig 3 "Limits" for the account to SSH-Chroot Options "NONE" thinking that might be the issue.
OpenSUSE Network :: SAMBA - Changing Default Permissions On Files And Directories Created From Windows Clients
Mar 9, 2010I have a fileserver running openSUSE 11.2 and samba services for file access from MS Windows based workstations. My question relates to changing default permissions on files and directories created from the windows clients.
Following are extracts of the /etc/samba/smb.conf file :
Even with the above entries, sometimes there are files and directories created by the windows clients having permission
Probably my lack of understanding in ACLS.
OpenSUSE Network :: Mounting A Cifs Share As Normal User In OpenSuse 11.4?
Apr 2, 2011Q: How can I allow my users to mount a cifs share without an entry in fstab in OpenSuse 11.4?
I have an answer myself. Until OpenSuse 11.2 I could mount my samba shares by making mount.cifs and umount.cifs setuid root. Today I installed OpenSuse 11.4. Unfortunately mount.cifs isn't anymore allowed to be setuid due to security concerns. Security is not an issue in my case, so I copied the mount.cifs and umount.cifs from 11.2 to make it work again:
1. Download cifs-mount-3.4.2-1.1.3.1.x86_64.rpm from this repository (I use 64 bit):
"http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.2/repo/oss/suse/x86_64/"
2. Extract the files mount.cifs and umount.cifs from the rpm and copy them to /sbin
3. Make them setuid root:
Code:
linux-y5qw:~ # chmod u+s /sbin/mount.cifs
linux-y5qw:~ # chmod u+s /sbin/umount.cifs
4. Mount your cifs shares as a normal user:
Code:
martin@linux-y5qw:~> /sbin/mount.cifs //192.168.2.2/data /home/martin/data/ -ousername=martin

Ubuntu :: One User Cannot Login Via GDM - "reset" All (X, GDM Related) Permissions/settings Of One User?
Dec 11, 2010Is it possible "reset" all (X, GDM related) permissions/settings of one user? What would cause one specific user not to be able to log into anything via gdm/the login screen? After providing the proper password, the screen goes black and then jumps back to the login screen. No session alternative works, not even xterm or gnome failsafe. I can however log in via the console (Ctrl+Alt+F6, recovery etc). With another user I can log in via GDM just fine, and deleting and re-adding the "broken" user doesn't make any difference.
Some (maybe) relevent logs:

Feb 9, 2010figure out how to share the folder to only special user? For example I have two computers host1 with users: user1, user2, user3 and host2 with same users: user1, user2, user3, how to share test user2 folder form host1 to only user2 from host2 ? My system is openSuse 11.1. There is all Ive understood:
host1
[test]
inherit acls = Yes
path = /home/user2/test (drwxr-xr-x)
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
read list = user2
valid users = user2
admin users = user2
host2
mount t cifs //host1/test /home/user2/test
It works but either user2 from host2 cant write to test share on host1 (drwxr-xr-x) OR all can write in this share (drwxrwxrwx). Ive googled it, searched here and read this: Chapter16.File, Directory, and Share Access Controls, but without successes.
OpenSUSE Network :: Confine An Authenticated FTP User To The Designated Ftp Directory?
Feb 10, 2010I have configured my Laptop running OS 11.1 as an ftp server with vsftpd behind a router on my home network. I have managed to get it working so that I have authenticated users who can connect and write using the external ip address. The problem is that the authenticated user, rather than being allowed access only to the folder in question (/srv/ftp), can browse my entire directory structure.
When I tried this from a different computer (a Mac) from within my home network (but connecting through the external IP address) with fileZilla, using a user name I established as the authenticated ftp user (not my own uname), I could even download and write to other locations in the directory. I had another person try from outside the network, and they could browse the entire directory, but couldn't download from it. how can I confine an authenticated FTP user to the designated ftp directory?

I put this file in cgi-bin folder of Apache server. Here is my problem : when I run this file with shell as root user it makes change to iptables, but when I use my browser to run this file, it doesn't make any change. I'm sure this is because Apache doesn't have permission to manipulate iptables. How can I start Apache as a user with root privileges ?
