View 1 RepliesI have created a share on a Windows XP VM and a share on Ubuntu, both access each other fine without a hitch. On my Windows 7 net book I can access shared files on Ubuntu, but cannot access a share on Windows 7 via Ubuntu. So I figure the cause of the problem is a certain configuration in Windows 7.
Also another question. On my net book I have IIS setup for hosting media files onto my local network so that I can use my PS3 browser to view them on my television. What software can I use in Linux to achieve this?
I'm running a Samba server (3.5.2-60.fc13) on Fedora 13 (64 bit). I want to share the user home directories and want to allow following of symlinks out of the share tree. So in smb.conf I used
unix extensions = no
wide links = yes
For SELinux I did:
setsebool -P samba_enable_home_dirs=1
getsebool -a | grep samba
samba_create_home_dirs --> off
samba_domain_controller --> off
[code]....
However I can't follow the symlinks when mounting my home directory on a Windows machine, unless I disable SeLinux.
I have a samba server with security user. I have a number of shares inside the share with different users logins. But while accessing the shares from windows, in the login prompt, by default username it takes as the guest. How will I disable the default guest user login ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedTwo users on both Ubuntu server and Windows 7. Both users admins on Windows. Used SWAT to set up Samba. Printer is local to Ubuntu server. User A can access both file share and printer on Ubuntu server from Windows. User B can access the file share but can only see the printer, not use it. Have looked everywhere I can think of to find out why one user has access and the other doesn't on both Windows side and Ubuntu side. As far as I can tell, they are set up the same. Can anyone provide some direction on what I should look at to find out what might be preventing User B from being authorized to use the printer on Ubuntu?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI use an IBM S50 desktop running XP as a file and print server via Windows shares and so far all my XP and Ubuntu laptops can see and use the shares. Now I would like to move the S50 to Ubuntu and still use it as a file and print server. To test this, I have installed Ubuntu 10.04 via wubi and then I installed samba. First thing was to do the simplest case: follow the official documentation,

I followed it to the letter, editing the smb.conf file, creating a /srv/samba/share directory, changing the permissions, and restarting the daemons. I was able to read and write to the share with my Ubuntu laptop. Success! However, my Windows laptop can see the Samba server, but when I click on the share, "Ubuntu server (Samba, Ubuntu)" to reveal the file system, it asks for a username and password.
how to let XP access the Ubuntu share?
Code:
workgroup = workgroup
server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu)
security = user

I have some large files on a network share that I would like to burn directly to a DVD using K3b. Any new data project does not have access to the Windows share. I can access the files ok in Natty Norwhale. Just cannot seem to find them in K3b.

I currently have a Samba share on a Debian 7 system. This share was only ever used by Windows systems on the network.
I just finished setting up a Debian 8 system with Xfce, and now I would like to connect to the share. I already installed gvfs-backends and gvfs-bin. When I go to Thunar file manager, and click browse network, I'm presented with a "Windows Network" shortcut. When clicked it says: Failed to open "Windows Network". Failed to retrieve share list from server: No such file or directory.
I have a 500GB external usb drive connected to my USB router (running dd-wrt). I have the router setup with samba and can read/write to it from any PC on the network.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out a good way to access a folder within a Windows share from an Ubuntu 10.04 computer. I work at a school which uses a Windows network. Each class has one login and a folder for their work. All the folders are in one Windows share called //fses/class$. Each class does not have access to //fses/class$ (otherwise a student from one class would be able to access another class's folder) - they only have access to their own folder e.g. //fses/class$/3b.
When I try to access a class's folder from an Ubuntu computer I get an error that //fses/class$ cannot be accessed. I've got around it for the moment by using a teacher's credentials, but that's not ideal because then the students have access to other classes' work. I also tried using the 'mount' command e.g.
sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=3b,password=**** //fses/class$/3b /media/3b
This did work (although I know it'd be better to use cifs and a credentials file), but only a 'superuser' can do it, and it mounts the folder for all users. I could also give the students superuser permission for the mount command, but this seems like giving them more permission than should really be necessary. Is there any way for a user who is not a superuser to access the folder? I'd like to use something like this.
nautilus username=3b,password=**** smb://fses/class$/3b
I have searched for days on this problem and no one seems to have the fix. Everyone else seems to go off on tangents.I have 3 computers. One runs XP pro, one runs Windows 7 Ultimate x64, and one runs openSUSE 11.2.The two windows machines can share files between each other with no problems.On suse I setup samba correctly. When I go to Computer -> Network on suse, I then go into Samba Shares. Then I see my workgroup name. I click to go in and I can see all 3 of my PC's listed here.When I click on my XP pro machine,am prompted for a user name and password. I put it in and I gain access perfectly.
When I click on my Windows 7 machine, I am prompted for a user name and password. I enter it in and it prompts me again for the user name and password. It will not let me in.I have changed all of the settings in 7, I have disabled the firewall, I have changed the security policies, I have changed the encryption strength.Simply Samba is nolaying well with Windows 7. I cannot believe that I am the only one with this problem
I have a Windows share on my network and I protected it with a password. I access it with my Ubuntu desktop, and I saved my password the first time I accessed it. The password is saved in Seahorse (the keyring), but each time I try to access my Windows share, I have to type in my keyring password.Despite trying several tutos, I haven't been able to prevent keyring from asking for my keyring password.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm using Ubuntu 10.10 since 2-3 weeks. First I tried live CD and the OS seems to be very good. So i installed it on my laptop.So far i had no problems until I tried to access the shared network folders of my Server running on MS Windows Vista and another trial PC running WindowsXP. I'm trying to solve this since 2-3 days, I haven't found a solution.1st of all my network works fine. All computers can ping each other and as the laptop had Windows XP installed the server was accessable.1st I installed the SMB4k tool with this program. I could see the computer names, but as soon as I select a Windows computer the tool searches and nothing happens.
I tried a lot of different variations of this command but in the end I receive this kind of error. I also tried to add -o user=username pass=password, nothing changed.After this I searched information about this error, some forum threads I googled are telling the SMB4K tool modifies the /etc/sudoers file and cause this error. So i tried to change it back with some kind of sudo chmod 0640 etc/sudoers but this won't work it seems I can not modify or edit thisw file using sudo.With the pyNeighbourhood tool I could only see my Laptop but not the Windows PCs.At the end I will install Linux systems on all of my PCs, but only if all my tests will pass .
I am using Kubuntu 10.04, but I am posting here because the Kubuntu forums seems to be user agnostic. I just couldn't get past the verificaiton process. This should be a general networking problem that Ubuntu users can answer. On my home network, I have a Windows machine whose shared folders I can access from one machine running Ubuntu 9.04. I've had to do no network configuration on Ubuntu, it just works out of the box. On Windows I do not have a password that I use to login. Ubuntu does not ask for it either.
But on Kubuntu, when I browse the network samba shares, I can see my Windows share, open it, navigate it, but every time I cd into another level in the share or click on a file (say a music file to play), the authentication window pops up asking for a user name and password. What login information should I use here? I tried my Windows user name and a blank password,
If the calling process passes me the virtual address of an its array for example, how can I access it without using copy_from_user?

I want to restrict a user accessing my ftp site.
1) i can block the user in ftp configuration file

i heard that if pam is denying the user and ftp is allowing the user the user can get the access it means that ftp conf file is stronger than host.deny
I'm trying to set up an unprivileged user on some field systems running 11.04 with the standard Gnome shell (rather than Unity), and ideally that user would not have access to the command line. The user can log in through GDM (but not the text consoles) with no password, so I need to provide the absolute minimum of privileges; basically the user should only be able to run one program.
I've already set the /desktop/gnome/lockdown/disable_command_line key with gconf-editor for that user, which successfully disabled the "Run Command" dialog. Unfortunately, even though the description of the key in gconf-editor says "prevents the user from accessing the terminal...", the terminal emulator is still accessible from the Applications menu, and I haven't been able to find a good way of disabling the terminal or removing it from the menu. The only thing that occurs to me is an ugly hack: replace the gnome-terminal binary with another that checks to make sure the user is not the unprivileged one and then starts gnome-terminal.
What is it? How do I remove a user's rights from accessing the interactive shell?

My system is openSuse 11.1. There is all Ive understood:

inherit acls = Yes

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.
I have a Ubuntu 10.10 server and I would like to have full access to / from my Windows 7 box so I can modify config files and such.
I have already installed Samba and created a local user on the server for myself.
I am at the point where I need to create the share to / and give my user read/write to it.
Additionally if possible I would like for it to be a hidden share for additional security.
