Ubuntu :: Accessing The Files From Imac (OS X10.6.3)?

May 19, 2010

I am going to install ubuntu on my old PC; it meets the specification. Would I be able to see the files through my imac. Here Is what I am hoping to do. Ubuntu PC is going to have a USB drive with lots of movies. iMac will run ps3mediaserver and hoping to play the files in the USB drive. Well, why don't I just attach the USB drive to iMac? Where is the fun in it? My old PC has a built in TV tuner card, so eventually I want to use that as PVR and play them on using ps3mediaserver.

Ubuntu :: Restrict A Certain Program From Accessing Certain Files

Jul 28, 2010

Everytime I start Rhythmbox it starts to scan my USB HardDrive (which contains 50,000+ files) for media. I searched around, and it seems that there is nothing one can do stop that using any Rhythmbox options, switches, etc. Is there a way to prevent a process (in this case Rhythmbox)from using a certain resource (the path to my USB Drive)? I'm thinking APPArmor or SELinux may be the way to do it.

Ubuntu :: Accessing Files In Virtual Image?

Jan 22, 2011

I have an issue with a PC (XP pro)that had a virus which deleted all the files in the windows/system32/config folder. I first attempted to do the second repair option on the XP cd and it wasn't available. So unable to boot to windows and run an anti-virus; I put the hard drive in my external enclosure. Plugged it into my ubuntu laptop and removed the virus infected files using Clam. I then tried using the XP cd in the first repair to copy the files only to get an access denied msg.

I would like to just copy necessary data from the drive with XP pro installed and then reinstall XP and give the PC back to the owners. However the person that did the original install used a volume license cd and I unfortunately have no more CD keys and hate using cracks in certain business environments. So I came up with good idea at the time to setup XP pro in virtual box and then copy the files from there however those files are in use when the machine is running and can't be copied. So is there anyway to mount the Virtual hard drive and copy the files while the virtual machine is off?

Ubuntu :: 11.04 Hangs When Accessing / Copying Files?

Jul 14, 2011

I am running an old p4 system with the latest ubuntu. It has been working wonderfully until today. It all of the sudden starts to hang when copying or even just accessing files from one specific hard drive. I have read that this is an error with ext4. Is there anyway to fix this?

It would be extremely difficult for me to transfer all of these files over if i don't know whether or not it will hang.

Ubuntu Networking :: Accessing Windows 7 Shared Files?

Mar 20, 2010

I have two computers set up, one is running Ubuntu 9.04 and the other running Windows 7 Professional. I have a bunch of shared files from Windows 7 (which I am normally able to access from any Windows 7 or Windows XP machine on my network) but I can't access them from Ubuntu.I have tried going to Places > Network > Windows Network, but I receive the error "Unable to mount locations Failed to retrieve share list from server"I have also found another recommendation for accessing a windows server, via Places > Connect to Server, but I receive another error message there, "Cannot display location "smb://..." No application is registered as handling this file."Could anyone explain what my problem is and how I could fix it? I really wish I could figure this stupid thing out myself, but it's linux.. it's not meant to be understood by anyone >.<

Ubuntu Servers :: Prevent PHP From Accessing Files Above Wwwroot

Sep 12, 2010

I'm running Apache2 and PHP5, hosting multiple virtual domains on my server. The directories of the domains (/var/www/<domain>) aren't publicly readable, so the websites can't access each others content as the scripts are run using different user accounts. They can, however, access other folders on the system that have public access for any user. I tried using the following PHP code, which listed the filesystem root:

Quote:

<?php
$handle=opendir("../../../..");
while($file=readdir($handle)){
echo $file . "<br/>";
}
?>

I will be hosting sites for other people so I don't want them to be able to access my entire server with PHP. Is there any way i can do this?

Ubuntu :: Accessing Windows Files From A Wubi Installation?

Dec 28, 2010

I got the BSOD on Windows 7 and I was unable to fix it at all. But I had already installed Ubuntu on my computer a while ago with a wubi installation. I look and saw other form posts/ tutorials online and ever time I follow them the error I end up getting is hard drive already mounted. Is this because I am already on that hard drive by running Ubuntu or is it because of a bsod error. Also what will happen if I force unmount my hard drive? Basically I want my files from the windows portion so I can move them then too a portable hard drive and factory reset my whole computer.

Ubuntu Security :: Accessing NTFS-encrypted Files And Folders?

May 14, 2010

After trying Truecrypt, LUKS, and Ecryptfs I decided to try NTFS encryption. Now, on a dual boot computer from Ubuntu I can browse the encrypted folders but can not open the encrypted files. All attempts produce access denials yet the Unix file permissions appear to be "0777" (owner, group, and world readable-writable).

Is there someway to get Ubuntu's NTFS software to recognize and decrypt the encrypted files? Would a different NTFS package work such as NTFS-3g?

Ubuntu Security :: Accessing Password Protected Ext3 Files?

Jul 31, 2010

I have a drive that originally was used with a Linksys Network Storage Link (NSLU2), then stopped working with it. Now I'm trying to get the files off the drive. When I USB connect the drive to Ubuntu, I can see the files, but I'm unable to open them or copy them. The error message is: "Error Opening File: Permission Denied". I did have permissions set on the NSLU2. So far I'm not able to find a way to get around the permissions issue in Ubuntu.

I have used apps like EASEUS Data Recovery and Recover My Files. It appears that they are finding the files and are able to access them, so I know it can be done. I don't mind spending some $, but these apps are taking a *long* time to run. If I could properly access the files in Ubuntu long enough to copy the files, I think I'd be all set.

I have a dual boot ( Ubuntu 10.04 and Linux Mint), but I spend most of my time in the Ubuntu 10.04 partition. The point is that I have a huge files in the Mint compartment and I would like to gain access to those files from my Ubuntu 10.04 partition. I have tried samba and could not get the file sharing system to work. I had used samba when I was dual booting between Ubuntu and Windows and it worked but not in my present Linux dual boot.

Ubuntu :: Accessing Files That Are "off Limits" In Other Partitions?

Jul 23, 2010

I've used Ubuntu for several years now, but it's my first post to these forums. I'm in the process of recovering from a major, non-recoverable error with my OS. I've managed to salvage the vast majority of my files by booting through a live CD and mounting the damaged partition in order to transfer my files to an external hard drive in preparation for a clean install of the OS. However, I've encountered a problem accessing and copying certain files, with a dialog box informing me that "You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "Folder Name."

Ubuntu / Apple :: Booting 10.04 On Imac With Osx 10.6

Aug 20, 2010

I just installed the latest version of Ubuntu on my intel-based iMac with OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard), but I don't know how to bring it up.

I partinioned my hard drive for it. I inserted the CD and pressed C when restarting my computer for it to come up, then I installed it on the partition. It was done installing and said the computer must restart now, so I pressed OK. I got a black screen with a bunch of white text saying something about an error. It was pretty much "frozen" (I didn't know how to get off the screen), so I turned off the power manually by pressing the power button. I turned the power back on, but I get no option for Linux. I tried putting the CD back in, and it boots from the CD but it's still the non-installed version. So I thought maybe it didn't install, so I pressed install again. It said to choose where to install it, but my partition of free space said Ubuntu was already installed on it.

I'm really confused and don't know how to get it to start up when I turn on my computer.

EDIT: Here's some more info about my mac incase you need it:

iMac
OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard
Intel
4 Gb of RAM
250 Gb hard drive (29 Gb partitioned for Linux)

Ubuntu / Apple :: IMac G3 - Won't Install

Oct 25, 2010

I remembered about my old iMac G3 and currently had OSX 10.2.8 installed on it but its too old to support flash so no ..... or anything (why I stopped using it) I do remember gnash working on it along time ago when I had Ubuntu 4.10 installed, gnash is just really glitchy but that was quite a long time ago I used it so I'm only assuming they have made some updates as Ubuntu progressed.

I tried have now tried 4.10, 6.04, 6.10, 7.10, 8.04, 8.10, and 10.10 all for ppc using the alternate installer cause the desktop installer just makes the iMac restart when I tried it with 8.04 I think it was so I just stuck with the alternate installer method and EVERY one of those versions of Ubuntu fails to install the base system..

I don't know what it is or why this is happening because that is the same disc I used before with 4.10 and it now cant find a file, I tried re downloading 4.10 and burnt it again on my dads laptop (Toshiba Satellite with Ubuntu 10.10) at 8x on a CD (the iMac has a CD ROM only). I can't figure out what to do, I just downloaded the Desktop installer for 10.04 and the alternate installer for 10.04 as well and I'm going to burn both of those and see what happens.

Every install I tried to do I did a full whip to the hard drive so its a fresh install of ubuntu only. I thought maybe something was wrong with the hard drive now so I tried 10.2.4 again and it installed fine and wanted me to update to 10.2.8 again so I turned it off and tried 10.10 again and nothing is working. It's going on a week soon I've been messing with this old computer trying to get it working and everything is failing on me

Apple :: Can't Get Ubuntu 10.10 On My G4 IMac PPC / Sort It?

Oct 26, 2010

I decided as ubuntu 10.10 was so good on my old laptop i would install it on my old G4 iMac 17" LCD.

However, All I ever get is a black screen.

i tried the alternate install and it all seemed fine until it reboots and.... Black screen!

I burned the ubuntu 10.10 desktop ppc cdrom nice and slow, checked MD5 sums and verified disk etc...

I put it in the cd tray booted up, and let it start the lice cd... For a split second I saw the ubuntu loadscreen before it disappeared in a hiss of static and went to a.... Black screen.

I've tried alt-command F2, but don�t get a console

i am at a loss as to what to do next. I partitioned the whole HDD for ubuntu during the alternate istall. So until i can get Ubuntu up and running, I have a very heavy paperweight.

Ubuntu / Apple :: Installation - 7.04 On IMac G3 (os 9.2.2)?

Mar 22, 2011

my partner and I have been trying to wipe the mac os 9.2.2 (UK version) and replace with ubuntu 7.04 (previous forums have mentioned this is the most stable version of ubuntu for the G3).

We bought this iMac G3 the other day, cheap, for our sons room... homework, research, music etc. He's used to the windows system that the Mac os looks both boring and confusing to him. so we thought we'd go in between and use the ubuntu os.

Any who! downloaded the iso for ubuntu 7.04, burned the iso image, alternate cd install of course. the only problem we are having is getting the disc to boot at start up on the iMac. (cd rom doesn't have a tray, I've seen this question asked before). the cd burned fine, the disc works on other systems. but when it comes to boot up on the iMac, nothing happens. press and hold down c, cd drive turns the discs a few times then carries on with the original mac os 9 start up.

Ubuntu :: IMac G5 Jockey-gtk Won't Start

here is what it gives me when I try to run in terminal:
