Red Hat / Fedora :: Creating Trusted Connection Between Machines For Shared Accou
Jan 20, 2011
I tried to create trusted connection between two machines (named "master" and "node1") for shared account, but no luck. what I had done are as follows:
1.create user account "tester" in "master"
2.set NFS server configuration to have RW for /home/tester for "node1"
3.create user account "tester" without creating home dir in "node1" with same userID and groupID as the one in "master"
4.create dir "homester" in "node1" and mount to "master" (mount -t nfs master:/home/tester /home/tester).in master node: ssh-keygen -t rsa
5.generate authorized_keys in "node1" (details not shown)
but it is not working, if I don't use home/tester as shared dir, and two machines have their own /home/tester , the trusted connection gets created and scp works fine. can we create trusted connection for shared account, if yes, how and did I do miss anything.
I 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.
I am using Fedora 8 in my PC and i'm trying to create a shared memory (below is the sample program) i'm getting error while creating shared memory. Can anyone pl tell what is the possible cause for this.
I have Ubuntu 9.04 on my desktop PC running Evolution. I would like to be able to access the Calendar on my laptop running Xubuntu 9.10, also using Evolution. Can I specify to store the Ubuntu Evolution Calendar in a shared folder & access that from Xubuntu Evolution? In that case, how do I specify the calendar file locations for each installation? Is there a better way of achieving a calendar shared between the two machines?
I have two Ubuntu 10.04 computers ans several windows computers on a common ip address on my LAN, I cannot connect to the shared folders on the Ubuntu machines but all windows machines connect fine. I see the Ubuntu computers in networks on both Linux machines. When I try to access a shared folder on the Ubuntu machines it ask me for the user name, domain, and password even though I set Remote Desktop sharing to "Configure network to automatically accept connections"
I am trying to share folders between my laptop and desktop. The desktop runs Ubuntu 10 ,and the laptop I'm dual-booting between pclinux OS and another OS. I can't see either machine from either machine. The desktop shows a "windows network" when I go to the network location in file manager. When I run PC Linux, I can't even see the desktop which runs Linux as well, and I've tried to configure shares in the PC Linux OS Control Center, but I obviously failed. I installed gshare on the Ubuntu machine, and PC Linux has GUI tools(whew!) to configure NFS, SMB, and Deb-whatever the other one's name is. As a new convert, I've went into properties,permissions, because it's what I'm familiar with. I just wish someone would tell me if I should maybe just go back to the other OS or not, as I've had so many problems every since trying the switch. I really like this system, but it seems as if you need to be some kind of computer programmer or something to be able to do the most basic things (install software,wireless,share files). I'm not a stupid person, and what I lack in knowledge, I compensate for in desire to learn.
I have shared an internet connection in windows on my laptop computer and I tried to configure Fedora 11 to use this internet connection on my desktop computer.
My network configuration on Fedora 11:
My network configuration on Windows XP (SP2):
I can even access the files stored on my laptop but I can't use the shared internet connection.
I have been working through setting up a CUPS server on my Dell Dimension 2000 which is running Ubuntu 10.04. I have the server set up and the printer added and have gone through all of the steps the tutorials suggest to get the printer to be viewed on the network (set it to shared, allow other machines to view shared printers, etc). However, I can't find this printer on any of the other machine on my LAN (one machine running mac os x the other running Ubuntu 10.10).
I have installed Canon ImageRunner 2018i on my linux box using CUPS web interface. When I try to install this as a network printer from a Windows XP machine, the windows XP machine keeps asking me for a device driver. Is there a way to configure the printer on CUPS/Samba so that when I try to install it on Windows XP machine as a network printer, it does not ask me for a device driver?
I have a quad cpu with 8gb ram running SUSE 10 sp2 on a raid 5 XEN host server. I have created a 250 gb partition GWMAIL in the extended partition to be the disk space for the first virtual machine OES sp1 with groupwise 8.0. I have downloaded the OS .iso's to the desktop of the host server to use for installation. When I begin to install, it hangs for 5 to 10 minutes then gives me an out of space error.
I have 2 questions... I couldn't find answers by Googling (more precisely, by Blackling) and in GCC documents, so I'm asking here.
1. There are 2 flags for position independent code, -fpic and -fPIC. All the examples I read use -fPIC... so when is -fpic useful and what is the difference?
2. Some tutorials use "g++ -shared" while others use "ld" for the creation of the shared library. Why? Does it matter which method I use? Is there a difference? Why does nobody mention both options?
i already reserved the space for the partition, from what i have read so far, it has to be FAT32 or NTFS. also my major question is how i would be able to point both OS to save my files to the 3rd partition i am creating for sharing. cos in my experience, windows likes to store files in its home partition without even giving u an option to see other partitions in ur system, ubuntu at leastb allows me see the other partitions on the drive.
I am dual booting windows 7 and ubuntu 10.04 using grub. I am using a 1tb samsung hard drive. Ubuntu has 750gb and windows has 250gb. I want 500gb of my HD to be FAT32 so I can put all of my music, pictures, and videos on it. I don't have more than 100gb used on either partition.
I have done quite a bit of searching and browsing, but I can't find a good step by step guide to do this. I am guessing I need to figure out how to use fdisk?
I have a sunfire server that I connect to my dell inspiron 6000 laptop for internet. The wireless router and cable modem are in another room of the house, and I can't move the stuff in the same room. The inspiron 6000 and sunfire have the same external IP address, but I want to run a game server off of it, how can I get that to work if they have the same address?
i had created a thread in desktop environment and had received no comments, so posting it here again.
Had installed ubuntu alongside windows xp in dual boot. everything was working fine untill last week.
last week i did share a folder on NTFS partition from ubuntu to be accessed by my laptop which runs XP. i could access the folder after i ran this command from terminal "sudo smbpasswd -a myusername". After this i cannot boot to windows. it shows up windows screen and reboots again. ubuntu works fine. what do i do to get back windows XP to working again?
I'd like to have an easy way to configure firewall, e.g. eable/disable what mythtv needs, or enable/disable what mediatomb needs. Basically open/close a few tcp and/or udp ports for all interfaces (I have two), or just one of them.
Is there a way to add my own trusted services for the firewall?
Other recommended ways to do that? Or just write a simple shell script?
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.
We got a new server with 2 network interface cards with 4 MAC addresses in total. We would like to run two virtual machines (vserver1 and vserver2); one should connect via eth1, the other via eth2, and the host (mainserver) via eth0. The content of /etc/network/interfaces is as follows:
[Code]....
A connection from mainserver to vserver1 or vserver2 is not possible; a ssh connection from mainserver to vserverx ends with a login to mainserver.
At first I thought the Delay was normal. After looking around it seems that it's not true. I made a post here. The Problem seems to be related to DNS.
The Server in Question is not Online (as in on the web), all machines are on local ethernet. From What I understand DNS is to mask the IP like a named variable for each IP. I am still figuring out the ins and outs of a linux server. DNS is something I have little or no grasp over. So I need help in setting up the DNS for this scenario case. All guides I have seen seem to be for web servers which is where I stop reading and look for other guides. I have webmin and Bind9 installed on the server.
I'm a frequent user of the shared connection feature of SSH. Usually i have two or three connections open at the same time through the connection sharing feature, but sometimes when i try to start another i get the message "Shared connection to <server< closed". All the connection that are established through the connection sharing feature are still active and not closed, but when i try to create a new one i get that message.. i've even got that message when i have only had two connections through the shared connection feature.
I've tried to search google but it doesnt seem like anyone else has had the same kind of problem, does someone know why i sometimes get this error ?
I'm setting a bit of a game center with a spare computer I have laying around and needed to share my wireless from my laptop to this computer. Everything went smoothly until I installed Synergy... Apparently, when a connection is shared over Ethernet, Ubuntu decides to put the second computer on NAT. Is there a way for this not to happen? I need it in order to use Synergy.
I just got a new XBox 360, and I would like to get it connected to the internet.
I cannot run hardline Ethernet to it, as the nearest line is across the house.
I have, in the past and on friends machines, had success setting up a shared internet connection from my Ubuntu box to the XBox in question. I would always follow this guide, and it would work right away. [url]
Recently, I have purchased a new wifi router. This has changed the DHCP makeup of my home network from 192.xxx.xxx.x numbers to 10.0.0.x. I dont know why, but thats how the Netgear router set things up. I have reserved addresses 10.0.0.(2-4) for specific computers because of remote access needs, anything above 10.0.0.5 is empty.
Following the guide that I linked above, I cannot get the XBox connected.
I believe that the fact that the rest of the network is listed under 10.x.x.x may be the culprit, as the DCHP server on MY computer would be assigning the same Local IP as the other devices on the network. (I.E. Giving the XBox 10.0.0.2 and my computer 10.0.0.2)
To clarify how my network is connected; this is how the network is setup:
Internet/Phone line ---> Verizon Westell DSL modem in 'bridged mode' (IP 192.168.x.x) ----> Netgear WGR614v10 Wireless (IP 10.0.0.1) ----> Computer connected via wifi (10.0.0.x) ====> Shared connection to XBox (IP ? supposedly 10.0.0.x)
Somewhere between the computer and the shared connection, The xBox is getting lost, and cannot connect. The troubleshooting shows that it could connect to the network, but it cannot access the internet as a whole.
Since I completely switched to Opensuse11.3 From MS-Windows OS. The Problem I had is a PPTP VPN connection in windows, Which I used to connect Via a connection, The VPN provider gave me. Since these connection are for MS-Windows , I can't create a connection manually in Opensuse. I used , KDE control module/Network connection/VPN/add -> PPTP then I entered the host ip in NT DOMAIN field , my username, and password, and left all other options (including Gateway) the way it was. After that, every time I try to connect to this connection, NOTHING happens.
i need help to create a PPPoE Connection ( Breoadband)using RHEL 5 cz my ISP use this type of connection .Plz if there is someone can show me the procedure step by step.
