OpenSUSE Network :: Netatalk After Rolling Out 11.4 On Home Server?
Mar 17, 2011
I am having trouble with netatalk after rolling out 11.4 on my home server. I am using the same conf files from my previous 11.3 setup. I use netatalk for my macs as it tends to work better than samba.
I can access the afp volumes if I enter the full unc in finder (afp://server/data). The problem is that if I try to browse to the server via finder (click on the server icon) I get a connection fail. With 11.3 this would simply list out all available volumes.

Is there someone who knows how to create a RPM from netatalk 2.0.5. Or better has a URL to a RPM? I aske this because so fare I know there are no RPM's for opensuse 11.2 (or suse). I want to use this RPM in the susestudio this is because the version in the repositories don't work with snow leopard.

I would like to use my SuSE 11.2 1TB RAID server to backup my mac using time machine. I found several tutorials on the web for using netatalk over ssh, but all these tutorials are for Ubuntu and require the debian package. Has anybody compiled netatalk over ssh under SuSE? I cannot verify if the netatalk package installed by the SuSE installer has been compiled with this option. Alternatively could somebody point me to any documentation to help me compile netatalk? I tried reading the netatalk manual from sourceforge, but that asks for installation of a Berkley DB that is not required under Ubuntu.

I blindly upgraded my Mac OS X machine to Apple's newest OS version: 10.7 Lion. Unfortunately they upgraded their AFP implementation in such a way that now I cannot connect to my opensuse 11.4 box. However, that is quite essential for my TimeMachine backup to run over the network. Also, I can't quite go back to using samba for this because then timemachine will corrupt its own backup after a while. I tried NFS once, but that went a little over my head.
After a some googling, I came accross this blog that suggested a solution. I followed those steps, and behold I was even able to get the whole netatalk 2.2-beta4 thing to build correctly. However I couldn't get the afpd to run properly, since
Code: /etc/init.d/netatalk start did not seem to start the daemon in such a way that it actually opened a port (well, the latter is just a guess - os x told me it couldn't connect to the specified server, rather than that the server version was incorrect) Log-files didn't provide anything useful, and essentially I'd prefer it if I could install v2.2 via yast, rather than leaving traces of improperly configurated software all over my system.
The default OSS repository contains Netatalk 2.0.3. I need version 2.2. I've also been looking around the buildservice, but all i could find was a bunch of failed projects...

I'm about to set up file server for client, both win and osx and later on web server as well.first think is that i have an old box packardbell with 2.4 gh amd processor 1 gb of ram it's an oldie one 2000 i guess i think that there shouldn't be problem to install it as i was running opensuse on it before and accept sound card everything was running normally. I'm newbie in linux world but as much as i can understand is that i will need samba to make it work with win based os but what about mac's os x? is samba for it and how to set it up ?

I am attempting to setup the following:
1.User login/authentication via a single NIS server.
2. User home directory should also be on the Same NIS server.
3. If possible to setup a single shared home directory for all users.
OpenSuse version 11.2 There are twelve workstations from which users will login using the NIS authentication. I have succeeded in setting up NI server. However login fails as the home directory is not accessible.

I would like to build a server to act as a file/print server for my home. My wife, sister in law, and myself would use it. I would like it to be friendly to both windows and linux. My sister and I are both dual boot and for now my wife is windows only. Pretty soon though I plan on setting her up on linux as well. What would I need? And are there any "good" guides to setting something like this up?
I would like to use the system to:
- Store media / files
- Maybe have KMyMoney on it and share with the wife
- Hook a printer to and use as common printer

Continuing with my assigned task of migrating the company's PCs to GNU/Linux (openSUSE as server for GNU/Linux clients) I managed to set up a DC with roaming profiles for the few remaining Windows users, user validation and login for the openSUSE boxes and a few network shares with different rights. I know there are no roaming profiles for GNU/Linux and I can live with that but I would like to specify wich users/groups would have their home directories saved locally (notebook users) and which will save them on the Samba server.
By default home directories are saved locally but somehow Samba creates a minimal home directory for each user under /home in the Samba server. How can I tell the client box to use that directory? and how can I set up the few notebook users to save it on their disks? Maybe using the options under Yast > Security... > Users and groups management > Users (LDAP Users filter) > and then select the user and use the "Manage Samba account parameters" plug-in for specifying the different paths cant achieve this.

I am upgrading my linux server to Mandriva MES 5 server. Although its working fine (I can copy/delete/execute files from/to linux server), at mac workstation, at chooser, when I click on appletalk icon nothing happens. I have to click on Server IP address button and type my server IP, which is 192.168.0.123. Its is annoying and time consuming. I have to do this every time I want to access my server. At previously version, after I click on appletalk icon (at chooser), the server name comes up right away.

I, someday in my life, tried to add GUI to my installation of ubuntu server 8.04 LTS (don't ask me why, ). The problem is, I gave up before the instalation had finished, and some packages became broken. Now, everytime I try to install a new package, aptitude forces me to also install the dependencies of the previously "installed" packages, like abiword, xinit and so on.
The worst part: I don't remember what package I used to try this installation (x-window-system-core, gnome, gnome-core, {k,x,}ubuntu-desktop...).
Does anybody have any suggestions??? I must fix this as soon as possible, because this server is already at production...
The output from aptitude is listed below (just the list of suggested [imposed] packages):
Code:
The following NEW packages will be automatically installed:
abiword abiword-common abiword-help abiword-plugins aspell aspell-en
dictionaries-common doc-base docbook-xml dvipdfmx gnome-icon-theme
[Code].....

I am a novice who prefers using the GUI. I am trying to connect a home network of two Windows XP Pro laptops with a Linux desktop (Kubuntu 10.04 LTS). The Linux machine connected easily to the Internet through the network gateway and can see both Windows machines. It can read Shared Documents on one Windows machine without authentication but cannot access the second (perhaps because the second is connected directly to the router instead of a hub like the other two).
On the second Windows machine authorization is requested for Shared folders but Administrator and User names and passwords don't work. All machines can be pinged, and Kubuntu has a fixed network IP address. I have read many HowTos and followed some command-line instructions for setting up Samba but may have confused the setup. Now when I get Kubuntu program updates there is an error report for "samba-common". I would like to be able to share files and printers, and also transfer files from Windows to a Linux folder.

There is a computer in a home running opensuse into which I would like to login.
As usual, the computer is connected wirelessly to the home's router. I cannot control the router in order to direct incoming connections, say, on sshd port, to that computer.
Is there a way to log into that computer from outside?
The computer is fully under my control, as distinct from the home router. I know all relevant IP addresses. I can start any service on the computer, or start any command, or ask somebody to start a command while I am not at home.

I am trying to set a Ubuntu home server to be a Network Attached Drive, a Media server, and Backup server.All of the computers (mostly windows 7 machines) can see and connect with the shared ubuntu folders, and read write and execute files into the folders. The problem is when programs are installed onto the server they operating systems cannot have "Full control", or change the owner of a file.
This is an issue when using the Ubuntu shared folders as remote hard drive locations because when Windows goes to run the files it keeps popping up with the "Open file - Security Warning" preventing files from being natively run.

It it possible to setup a bind server for my internal network at home? Currently, all clients DNS requests go to my Verizon FIOS router, which also acts as a DHCP server. I would like to setup a another DNS server using BIND for studing.
Current setup:
Client --> Router (DNS Server) --> Internet
New BIND server setup:
Client --> BIND Server (2nd DNS) --> Router (Primary DNS) --> Internet
How would I go ab this? Would I have to configure a cache naming DNS server?

I am trying to setup Fedira 12 Linux Apache in my home network. I am able to access the hosted website from inside my home network without any problem. I am facing the problem to access it from outside. At the moment i have connected the Apache directly to DSL modem for testing purpose. I was reading "The ISP may have blocked the HTTP port 80. So check it by connecting the Apache directly to DSL modem." The temporary network connections for testing purpose are as follows..
DSL modem (SIEMENS Speed Stream 4200)-->Fedora 12/Linux Apache Server
I am even unable to PING the real ip (IP for DSL modem).(Firefox gave me error message "Connection Timed out) I have tried to ping it from the internet.I can PING the DSL from Apache without any problem.
1. Why i am even unable to PING the real IP of DSL modem at my home.?
2. Is it possible to run/setup Apache by using this type of DSL modem?
3. DSL modem has real IP. DSL MODEM assigns private IP (192.168.x.x) to Apache. So when a http request form the internet came to DSL modem on port 80, will it forward to Apache automatically.? or i have to made any changes.(I can not see anything in DSL modem to change/modify), OR do I have to use another DSL MODEM/Equipment (router)? This setup is just temporary. The actual design is as follows
DSL MODEM(Speed Stream 4200)-->Fedora 12 Linux ROUTER--->Internal network with DNS/Apache Server

While my wireless is generally working, there's one problem: I can't connect to my home network through it on my laptop. My desktop (which has an Atheros-based wireless card and is configured through ifup) connects just fine, as does another family member's laptop (also with an Atheros chip, but using NetworkManager) My laptop (With an Intel Centrino wireless chip), however, will not connect to the home router, though it can connect to public (unprotected) access points such as the one at my school. My home network is a private (hidden) network and also requires a WEP key to connect to and, as mentioned, works fine with several other systems running 11.3. I've attempted to use both ifup and NetworkManager and can't connect using either method. With ifup, the connection attempt just seems to time out during the connection attempt, while with NetworkManager, it doesn't even seem to try: I select the connection that I defined and click "Connect" and nothing happens after that. I'm using KDE and installed from the LiveCD

I'm trying to set up a bind9 server for my home network, I have all my IPs set to 10.0.0.X. I would like the forward and reverse to be simply "machinename", not "machinename.domain.com", as I don't want to type a domain everytime.
In my named.conf
zone "net.local" in {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/net.local.ns";
allow-update { none; };

Asterisk and its cousin technologies intrigue as well as confuse me. I'm wondering: Is it possible to set up an Asterisk (or other) server on a home computer with no special hardware and use it to route calls between mobile devices in remote locations? I'm hoping this could work similarly to Skype Mobile, Google Voice, etc., except on a WAY smaller scale. This is just something I'd use personally for calls to family and friends--nothing huge.
Since my computer is just a regular laptop with no 3G connectivity, I don't expect to use 3G for calls. I just think it would be cool, for instance, to go to a caf� with WiFi and use a SIP/VoIP client on my Android phone to call up a friend who also has a phone or PC with a SIP/VoIP client on it. I realize I could do the same thing far more easily with an account at Skype or some other provider. My interest in attempting this project is more for the learning experience than practical use.
If indeed this is possible to do with the hardware I already own, any tips for starting out? My computer is a MacBook Pro 5,5 (dual-booting Sabayon Linux and Mac OS X). I know I could install Asterisk from within Sabayon, install a specialized telephony distro to a new partition, or run a virtual Asterisk machine--but I'm not sure which option, if any, would be most appropriate here. I'm also not sure if Asterisk would accomplish what I want, or if I should look at other software.

share an external USB NTFS drive on my home network. The drive is attached to my desktop box running Debian Lenny. It's accessible on the desktop. I have a directory on the drive that I would like to make accessible to a Windows XP laptop. Read-only would be fine. The laptop has wireless access to the network.

I just ran a scan of my home folder with avast for linux and it detected multiple instances of 'WMA:Wimad [Drp] . Im pretty sure this is a window based virus so opensuse 11.2 should be actually infected right?
On a small side note is there any point in running a antivirus program on opensuse-do linux viruses exist in the wild? I recently read this Think Linux is free from malware? Think again; it's been hacked. - Computerworld Blogs and this Linux infection proves Windows malware monopoly is over; Gentoo ships backdoor? [updated] | ZDNet

I may have to work in another state for some time, and I'd like to access my home machine desktop remotely, like this: Server - home machine, oS 11.4 64-bit, KDE 4.7, 1920 x 1200 screen (currently set to 24-bit color depth), 1 Mbps upload speed, behind a Dlink DL-524 router I manage.
Client: laptop, oS 11.4 64-bit, KDE 4.6.5, 1280 x 800 screen (also 24-bit color depth), unknown up/down speed - probably huge at work, crappy at apart hotel. I'd like to keep the server resolution, if possible, even if the client's is smaller. I want to be able to star/stop KDE apps in the server, move files between folders, and fix the issues that only happen when my wife is at the keyboard (it's a machine conspiracy, she says ). So I'd need to connect to the server's current session/user (which is myself, i.e., same login/password).
What do you recommend for this? I've read Swerdna's tutorial for 11.2/11.2 (a million seen malcomlewis xrdp 0.6 packages for 11.4 (you rock, malcomlewis!), as well as this thread: RDP into OpenSUSE 11.2, however most seem concerned with rdp between windows and linux boxes. Is there something better/faster/simpler for oS-to-oS RDP or should I use xrdp all the same?

I am setting up Apache (Fedora 12) inside my home network. From inside my home network I access it without any problem. I need to set it up to access it from internet. I have the following questions. Here is temporary setup for testing purpose.
Internet-->ADSL modem (SEIMENS Speed Stream 4200)---> Apache (Fedora 12)
1. Do I have to do any kind of ports forwarding on ADSL modem. (There is no option to do port forwarding on Modem) May be I need different Model of Modem??
2. I tired to Ping my real IP for modem form another computer from internet. I am even unable to PING the ADSL 's real IP. Why it is that?

I have one pc on which I have installed slackware and samba (fixed IP, mask 255.255.255.0) I have another PC (also XP) which also has fixed IP running XP, and I can connect that to the slackware server easily My third PC connects to the internet and gets its IP address from the Cisco router(?) that provides the IP and mask on boot up.
I tried changing the IP and Mask on the slackware server to match the internet PC (which uses a mask 255.255.254.0) but the PC mask and IP changed on the internet PC I want the PC that connects to the internet to also be able to connect to the slackware server, but I see no need for the slackware server to also connect to the internet - I will mainly use it as a file server When I worked for another company I think the IT department talked about having 2 network cards in the PC that connects to the internet

I have a debian home server right now, I'm using samba for my file server but I was wanting to stream my movies and music to my other computers. My family (the other users on the network) are NOT computer savvy, and to top it off they are using both Windows (xp) and Mac (Snow Leopard) machines. So I'm looking for software that is simple to use that will allow other operating systems to use it. I would think the easiest way would be to stream the music/movies through a home website. I have seen quite a few programs out there that stream music, but none for movies.

I am running openSUSE 11.2 and just recently my network has been down. I'm using Gnome, but using Yast to configure my network (I'm usually forced to use wireless as I travel a lot on my laptop). Usually, when I'm connected to a wireless network, it will show up as so in the Gnome start menu, but recently, it will only say Wired there, even though I have nothing connected to my ethernet jack. I can connect wirelessly to a home router, but cannot use the wireless in any other way. I have tried manually disabling the ethernet connection to no avail. Unfortunately I am limited in my linux knowledge, so I am kinda stuck here.
