My next problem is: how in hell do you connect to a file server in Ubuntu???I have a plain little 1/2TB file server connected to my router. My Mac has no problems connecting to it.My Win 7 laptop has no trouble connecting to it. BUT... Ubuntu can't seem to find it at all. I have tried every bloody thing I can think of to tell it the server... name, Mac address, IP Address.
View 2 Repliesif connecting to my server for file transfer using gFtp is secure. I told gFtp to connect to the server using SSH2 and it works. It says it uses this command "ssh -e none -l wordpress -p 1883 IPADDRESS -s sftp." Is this more or less secure then using ftpes or ftps? What I thought was weird was that I could shutdown vsftpd and still connect. Does SSH2 SFTP use its own ftp server?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have set up a file server (Ubuntu Server Edition) for our lab. People can connect to common Samba file shares from their personal laptops/desktops, which run either Windows Vista or Mac OSX. The guys with OSX have upload/download speeds of ~2 MB/s, while the Vista machines are slogging away at ~200kb/s for downloads and ~400kb/s for uploads. In both cases, the connection are through wired ethernet ports which should function identically. Since the Macs work fine on the same network, I assume this is a Vista issue.
I have tried troubleshooting one of the Vista machines by:
1. Turning off the Remove Differential Compression feature
2. Disabling autotuning following these instructions
3. Adding a registry key following the same link above.
But nothing has improved. Anybody have any advice on addition tweaks to the Vista machine? Is there a chance that this is actually a server-side/samba issue?
I'm using Postgresql 8.4.2-2. I'm trying to remote into my server securely. I figure I could do so with ssh. Apparently I figured correctly, as per, [URL] and [URL] I setup the ssh tunnel. ssh -L 5432:serverip:5432 Then I setup pgadmin3 to connect as follows:
host: localhost
port: 5432
user: postgres
maintenance db: postgres
And I receive the following error:
An error has occurred: Quote: An error has occurred: Error connecting to the server: server closed the connection unexpectedly This probably means the server terminated abnormally before or while processing the request.
I'm not sure what the problem is. I can connect with Code: psql from the cli after connecting to the terminal via ssh. So I know that I'm using the correct password.
i tried to connecting from a windows7 client to a linux server through vnc server.But its very slow , is there any alternative for vnc . i heard that samba can be used as a remote desktop tool if its true please reply with configuration details.

When I try to add a printer I have set up in CUPS from my Ubuntu box, it asks for the password for katie (this is the user that is logged in on ubuntu box) on 192.168.1.200 (CUPS Debian Box). The problem is, I don't have a katie user set up on the debian box, am I supposed to for this to work. Why is it even prompting for a password? Also, it won't let me change the name so that I can authenticate with a different user, it is not in a text box.

In the past I have been able to connect to the machine, but for some I no longer can't.
I have done the following but still am unsure what problem is
1. Verfied the VNC server is running
2. Verified my user "trb" is in the vnc users list

I've set up an FTP server with vsFTPd, and I can connect when on the same machine that the server is running. However, when attempting to connect from another machine on the internet, or even on the same LAN, the connection always fails. Port forwarding on the router is enabled.
When attempting to connect over the internet via FileZilla, this is displayed:

I wanted to set up a secure FTP server with proftpd so I can put some large files on the web for my pops. Here is my problem, I use a clearwire modem that won't allow you to change any of the settings but appears to have some pre-set firewalling capabilities. I also have a linksys wireless router connected to the modem. That firewall has all the port forwarding settings ready to go, and there hasn't been an issue with anything else, so here it goes.
I have a properly configured secure FTP setup with proftpd and the client app I'm using is Filezilla. I know it is configured right because I was able to use the FTP server via my LAN. Maybe my logic is wrong but, I was connecting to the FTP server at it's IP on the LAN of 192.168.1.5:21. If I wanted my pops to connect from out of state I would give him the ip the internet sees when I surf the web, right? Looks something like this 68.44.22.113. I should tell him to configure Filezilla to connect to 68.44.22.113:21. If my logic is wrong, please let me know, because when I try to do this I get an error that says connection refused by host.
