Ubuntu Networking :: Can Browse Windows Network / But Not Other Linux Boxes

Mar 29, 2010

I noticed tonight when I go to Places, Network, it will bring up an icon for Windows Network, and I can drill down to my Windows box. But I can't see the other Linux box (a laptop running Kubuntu), and the same behavior occurs on the laptop when trying to view the Linux desktop. The laptop is connected wirelessly, if that makes a difference. Each box can ping the others, but I don't yet know how to browse one Linux box from the other Linux box.

CentOS 5 Networking :: Cannot Browse Windows Network Or Connect To Windows Shared Folders

Dec 22, 2010

I have a fresh install of CentOS 5.5. I am trying to browse to the Windows machines on my network (Places > Network Servers > Windows Network), but I get a blank window. I am able to ping the Windows machines using their IP address, but not by their name. What do I need to do to be able to see the Windows machines and also to connect to shared folders on these machines? So far I have tried starting SMB (via System > Administration > Server Settings > Services). I have also tried changing my smb workgroup to "WORKGROUP" (the default was mygroup which did not match my Windows machines.

Networking :: SSH Between Two Linux Boxes / Newbie Having Troubles

Oct 27, 2010

I'm trying to set up a mini grid of linux boxes, but am quite new to setting linux up.I've installed fedora 13 on one and would like to be able to SSH in to it. All boxes are within a university network (under a proxy if that makes any difference?).I can mount a shared disc easily enough, and SSH out to other computers (that I didn't set up myself),I've tried following a few threads, temporarily taking down firewalls, disabling SELinux, messing around with iptables but can't seem to manage it.

Networking :: Add A Linux Box To A Windows XP Home Network?

Apr 24, 2011

I wonder if someone could please direct me to a really simple guide to adding a Linux Mint 10 PC to a Windows XP home network that gives clear instructions for the actions to be carried out in both Linux and Windows XP? The Linux box is connected to the router by ethernet cable. I have tried the Samba Setup Guide [URL] but it ends cryptically with "Now you need to setup your Windows PC for domain logins" and none of the IT folk I have asked at work know what that means.

Ubuntu :: Can't Ping Boxes On Windows Network

Jul 6, 2011

I'm setting up an Ubuntu-based kiosk for my organization, and I can't seem to ping it by its hostname. The network is an Active Directory domain.

I tried editing /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf (I filled in the hostname where it said <hostname>), but no dice.

I also tried editing /etc/network/interfaces (the machine authenticates via DHCP but its network configuration is manually specified -- can't have users messing with NetworkManager):

Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
hostname <the computer's hostname here>

Finally, I tried joining it to the domain using likewise-open, and while it shows up in Active Directory, I still can't ping it.

Fedora Networking :: Test Network Card Through Output And Speed Between Linux And Windows?

Jan 20, 2011

I need to test network card throughput and speed between two computers, one is running Fedora and other running Windows 7. Usually I would use netperf to perform this task, however I can't find Windows build of netperf. Can anyone recommend any network evaluation tool, similar to netperf (clien/server) which has both Windows and Linux versions.

Ubuntu :: Browse Windows Network Directories?

Mar 26, 2011

Though File Manager allows me to browse Windows network directories ( Ctrl-L shows a path like smb://diskstation/mikeother/Web/Alta_Vista ), I can't figure out how to browse to them in applications like Firefox, which doesn't show "Network" as an option when doing File > Open. How can I browse to the Windows network within FF?

Networking :: Lost Network Only Between Two Boxes

Oct 23, 2010

I can't think of any obvious reason. I have two Ubuntu 10.04 machines. Each has a two disc RAID array for redundancy. Both are on my class C network (192.168.1.3 and 192.168.1.5). Both can access internet through router and I can "reach" each with a windows laptop (I can ping, login via SSH, reach webmin, SAMBA, etc). However, all the sudden, I cannot reach either linux box from the other linux box. It fails "both ways," meaning I can neither ping, login via SSH, use a SAMBA resource or in any way see the "other" linux box from one. This seemed to occur about two weeks ago (maybe after an update?). I've been using Unison to sync the RAID arrays - but not, I cannot sync at all. The only thing I could think of is to check hosts.deny (and allow) which are distribution default (unchanged)...

If I traceroute to the router, I get "1 XXXXX (192.168.1.1) 0.543 ms 1.217 ms 1.204 ms." However, if I try it to the other linux box, I get "3001.294 ms !H 2001.280 ms !H 3001.264 ms !H" which evidently means host unreachable. So it can get to the router (which has the windows box which can see both linux boxes). I just can't think of any reason why/how this could happen? Not sure how what is wrong with hosts file (I have made no changes and it accepts ping/ssh, etc from windows machine). Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Not Visible In Dialogue Boxes

Oct 12, 2010

I've set up Samba under Ubuntu for windows SMB file sharing (currently unauthenticated but soon to be backed off against A.D.) This is great within Windows where l folders are available as mounted in all applications but from my Ubuntu desktop and Ubuntu laptops, we can only access network folders and files from the File browsers and bookmarks one finds in the "Places" menu. Our issue is that most (but not all) dialogue boxes don't have any options for viewing non-local files and folders. i.e. when I'm in my web browser and I go to upload a file from our local network file server to an internet location, the "Open" dialogue box cannot see any of our local network locations.

General :: Share Folders In LAN With Only Linux Boxes

Nov 1, 2010

I have tried to find a simple "how to". People testify how simple sharing over Linux networks is, but I just can't make it.I have a desktop with Mint LXDB on it. My wife has a laptop with Ubuntu Lucid Lynx connected with a wireless LAN to a D-Link router.

But I can't open mine from her laptop. My aim is to connect her to a backup station connected to my computer. I have been looking into https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo. It is six pages long, complicated and i can't make it work.If networking in Linux should be so simple and native, there must be a better way..I hope.

OpenSUSE Network :: Can't Browse Internet At University / Works Fine In Windows

Mar 30, 2011

I'm not able to connect to my university's internet facilities under openSUSE 11.4. I have been able to connect in the past and I am still able to connect in Windows 7.When I try to connect to the university WiFi, a valid IP address is assigned to me and the gateway address appears to be correct, so I don't see a problem in the DHCP negotations. Same with my university's Ethernet: I get a valid IP address, but I can't connect to the internet.When I browse to any site with Chromium/Chrome/ Firefox/lynx/curl, the page is stuck at "Sending request". I have tried disabling my firewall - that didn't solve anything.I don't know what else I can try and the campus' network administrators are puzzled. How can I resolve my issue?

Networking :: Server Can't Ping Other Boxes On Private Network

Jul 27, 2011

I run a server that is connected to several other boxes in a private network (192.168.0.0). I have had no problems previously, but upon a reinstall of Debian squeeze I have no connectivity to the private network: a ping of other addresses on that network fail. Ping and connection to outside world is fine. This box is configured similarly to another on this private network which connects successfully. I have quadruple-checked all my basic information. I post my ifconfig below of the malfunctioning device, then the ifconfig for equivalent nic on a box connected succesfully to the private network.

Questions:

1.Could it be a cable problem? (I don't see how since the cables have not been changed I do not believe since my reinstallation).

2. What about the difference in the last lines of eth1 below and eth2 of the successful box. Is it significant that the bad eth1 reads Memory:fc3a0000-fc3c0000

CentOS 5 Networking :: Boxes Appear To Be Limited At ~10kb/s When Connecting To Any FTP Server Outside Of Our Network

Jul 13, 2010

I'm having a bizarre problem with FTP transfers from my CentOS 5.3 boxes, All of my CentOS boxes appear to be limited at ~10kb/s when connecting to any FTP server outside of our network. We have no network infrastructure which would cause this, however when I use a windows based machine it is able to connect fine.

I took my laptop running Vista, and rebooted it onto a CentOS 5.3 LiveCD, and same issue.

I have checked our iptables, cleared the rules, removed the kernel modules, checked CBQ/TC it looks like nothing is limiting this. Also, other protocols work fine. Both the windows and linux boxes used passive transfers for it.

Is there anything other than iptables/CBQ which would be on a out of the box install of CentOS I should check? Is there any kernel settings for NAT connections which may cause this?

Ubuntu Networking :: VPN Connect But Cannot Browse Remote Network

Jul 6, 2011

I hope someone can help me as I am new to Linux and Ubuntu. I am running Ubuntu 11.04 and am trying to get VPN working properly with the pptp protocol. It is connecting but I cant seem to view folders or start a RDP session. I have tried this out with a Windows and a Linux machine and both work. The Linux machine was running Mint 10, in the vpn configuration I had set the gateway, user and pass, then in advanced mschap and mschapv2 were selected as well as mppe, allow bsd, allow deflate, and use tcp header. These settings work fine with Mint but its not working for me using Ubuntu. I did try to ping, sometimes it works sometimes it wont.

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Manager In Hardy - Unable To Browse On The Net

Dec 17, 2010

I have been using Hardy for about 3yrs now and using dialup to connect to the internet. I have a 64bit ASUS with a nVidia ethernet interface........I have just recently switched to cable broadband with a wired connection direct to the eth0 port. I have another computer running puppy linux in which the broadband works. hence this is how I am typing this now. I have connected my ubuntu machine to the cable and the network admin shows a wired connection but will not let me browse on the net with any browser. Not really sure how I got puppy to find it, but it did.

I have used the network manager on both machines with one connecting and the other not. I know there a newer ubuntu's out but I really do like Hardy and want to keep it, but without internet connection other than dialup it seems a bit lame. I am not above using command line options as I use wodim and wget all the time, so my question is.

Fedora Networking :: F13 VPN / Network Conflicts - Cannot Browse Internet

Sep 20, 2010

I'm using VPNC to connect to a remote cisco network, however I cannot browse the internet after the tunnel establishes. I know this is a DNS issue, as I can ping external address by IP (e.g. google). I can also communicate through the VPN tunnel without trouble.

/etc/resolv.conf gets updated by the VPNC with the remote networks DNS Servers, but I still cannot connect to the internet. I even manually tried to add my local nameserver to the /etc/resolv.conf file, without luck.

Also, just as a side note, I can only establish the tunnel via the command line "vpnc" command. I'm using Fedora 13 with KDE, but knetworkmanager / networkmanager will not establish the tunnel, however I haven't really dug very deep as to why. I've just setup some vpnc config files for loading the various connections manually, as needed.

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba Network - Setting Up The Unbutu PCs To Browse The Workgroup

Dec 30, 2010

I have a home network with Ubuntu (3 PC) Windows (XP 3, 7 1 vista 1) and Lacie networked drive. I have successfully edited fstab to mount the lacie drive at startup on my main ubuntu PC and it works a treat. My problem is setting up the Unbutu PCs to browse the workgroup. This was working but now (since my last update of Unbutu I think) I get prompted for a password and no matter what I do it does not let me browse.

Now I have read a few things on Samba and do not have the time or ability to become a network engineer. All I want to do is is have on my Ubuntu the same browsing ability that seems to come out of the box in Windows.
