I could not get XP & latest Karmic Xubuntu to network. But now I can browse Xubuntu share/s from Win 7 but not vice versa (I cannot browse Windows 7 shares from Xubuntu laptop.) How would I accomplish this?
I upgraded from ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 and now I can't see my windows share. In Network it shows the windows pc but clicking on it gives the error: Unable to Mount Location, DBus error. It worked ok on 9.04, shame it didn't carry over
i switched from sabayon to Fedora13 some days ago, and now i encounter the problem, that some applications (XnView, XnViewMP, PFTrack so far) can't browse cifs network paths.This was working fine while on Sabayon.
I wanted to setup a Samba share on a box running Ubuntu 10.4 and share it to Windows 7 computers throughout my house. When I browse the Network (thru Windows), I can see "Media Devices" that correspond with the locations of where I will put the media. The problem is that I have been unable to copy the media to the Ubuntu server because I cannot see the Ubuntu "computer" from Windows 'Network'.
All computers are on the same Workgroup
Running the following command line from Windows returns no errors and lists the samba share:
Using the testparm command on my smb.conf returns only one error (which previous googling seems to indicate is not an issue). The following is what was returned by the command:
Using SUSE 11 with Gnome. I mounted a CIFS share from a Windows server as /mnt/win. With the file browser, I can browse to file system/mnt/win and then the files and folders of the Windows share come up fine and I can open them. When I use the file browser to browse to network, the server hosting this share is listed. Then I browse to that server and it lists no shares (nothing at all). I can't go any further than the server. Is there a separate authentication necessary for the file browser to see this share from the network place?
is there a Terminal command to open a Target file (same as the one opens when you want to upload a file), let user choose the file and when he clicks open, be able to save his choice?for example:echo "Choose source file"--> command needed to browseand then open or save path to that file

recently I got new wireless card, att usb Quicksilver(based/produce by Option?), for att.Regular gnome network manager freezes the computer when I am plugging it it therefore I installed the one from wicd.net.Also, I am using HSOConnect (to connect by to G3 network), and sometimes I connect to regular wireless g connection through router.
Under both cases I can ping the website by IP and can access the website by ip (ex. google) but can not ping or browse by name.As a side note... I can use and access Skype fine under g3 network and normal wireless.I tried browsing and finding other solutions in past few days but ended up breaking everything and reinstalling to get back to the point I am at now.I am working on the road, so not being to broswse is rather crippling to me.... also I can access internet normally only from home from different computer now.
My setup: Private router which connects to the internet. Host: win7 with VMWare workstation Ubuntu 10.04 runs in a virtual machine on VMWare workstation.
Win7 works fine. Ubuntu can ping with valid ip address and firefox can load a webpage if provided with valid ip address. Ubuntu cannot ping with domain name and firefox cannot browse with domain name. Examples: Ping google.dk results in
Code: ping: unknown host google.dk Writing google.dk in the address bar of firefox results in
Code: Firefox can't find the server at www.google.dk.
Code: peterbf@ubuntu:~$ ping 216.239.59.104 PING 216.239.59.104 (216.239.59.104) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 216.239.59.104: icmp_seq=1 ttl=237 time=40.3 ms 64 bytes from 216.239.59.104: icmp_seq=2 ttl=237 time=38.8 ms ^C --- 216.239.59.104 ping statistics --- 2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1001ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 38.892/39.645/40.398/0.753 ms Writing 216.239.59.104 in the address bar of firefox results in a correctly loaded google page.
brand new install of 10.4 server and I'm having a strange issue. I cannot browse to any website by it's domain name, but I can connect via IP address.
I've been googling around and did the following:
added nameservers to /etc/resolv.conf based on an nslookup from my windows box: nameserver 71.250.0.12 nameserver 68.237.161.12
I commented out the hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf per another site and changed it to: hosts: files dns
I can see other computers on my local network via IP and I can browse to the server's default apache page by it's hostname, so I'm assuming it's something about the server's dns resolution, but I'm not sure of my next step.
I have Ubuntu 10.10 at work and I've installed a Windows XP virtual box machine under it, that is joind to our Active Directory domain(but Ubuntu is/will not joined). I've set up VPN on XP box and I can connect to it from Ubuntu. I want to browse network shares(that use AD for permissions) and domain sites(like sharepoint) from Ubuntu. But even after connecting to VPN when I can't browse network shares, and nautilus asks for domain user/pass and tries to open share with no success. What extra steps is needed to browse my corporate network from Ubuntu via VPN?
Ubuntu 9.10 now, before 9.04 was installed. On both versions I was unable to browse windows network - when I visit corresponding icon in nautilus, I see error message: ??????-???? -- ???????????? ??????.png Looks like some service was missed at startup and not running.
I cannot browse the network from Ubuntu, but I can see the ubuntu machines from the windows including file and printing. Nautilus gives the following error: Could not display "network:///". Nautilus cannot handle "network" locations.
Workgroup names all set the same Sharing allowed on all machines
I have read all of the postings on this I think and have not been able to implement a solution.
We have two internet connections here, one through Allegro which goes through an ISA 2004 box and an ADSL2+ connection.Everything works fine when connected via the ISA box. Windows machines (and last I checked, a Macbook) work fine on the ADSL2 setup, but nothing Ubuntuesque will work properly through it.DHCP is fine (and the same thing happens with a static IP), it gives a proper address, DNS works fine, it's just whenever a page attempts to load, Firefox will sit at the "Waiting for <site>..." status until it gives up. apt does the same thing.What I've tested it on so far is:
- a homemade 9.10 box - an IBM xSeries 346 running 10.04 - an Acer Veriton M460 running 10.04 - an Acer Travelmate 6293 running 10.04
None of them will work with it. The Travelmate and the IBM are dual-boot, both will work fine on the connection under Windows. The Veriton is Windows only (tested using a Live CD) and is much the same.The router is a Thompson TG782T (Telsta branded). I'm at a loss with this. Any ideas? I can provide more info if needed.
I have installed ubuntu a few times in the past but if I've had to get messy with the command line I bailed. So given that I wanted to set up a home server/media center, I tried win server, but given research had told me that it is easier to accomplish all the features I wanted with Linux I decided the time had come to really see what I'd been missing out on. So what I am looking to accomplish is a full lamp stack, xbmc, samba, mail server, VMWare server, rtorrent, ftp, an probably a few others I have forgot because I can't get to my check list right now. Settled on ubuntu 10.10, had installed it a couple of times while it was still in beta, just to get a feel for it and get everything working so that when it was released I could do a fresh install knowing how to configure everything.
So on Sunday the time came. Everything was going fine until last night, I was installing roundtable webmail and all I came to download something and FireFox can't display any web pages, postfix can't deliver mail. The server can ping local machines but not google.com or another internet site, I can ssh into it an get a remote desktop session via various methods, both either over the local network, or internet. The website is getting served both locally or internet. I just cant seem to make any outbound connections to the outside world.
I'm a n00b with these things so be nice please XD I have recently touched on this in previous posts but never came to actually trying to fix it. I have a D-Link DSL-2640R router, with dhcp disabled. It is connected to my computer via ethernet. I have the network manager configuration set to manual with an address of 192.168.1.2, Mask 255.255.255.0 and the gateway column is blank. I would like to know why my eth0 interface seems to stop me browsing.
I use a T-Mobile HUAWEI usb mobile broadband stick, Model E1750 for internet access. If anyone has any ideas as to why this is happening please discuss them. I have also tried editing the /etc/sysctl.conf file and uncommented the net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 line to enable ipv4 packet forwarding. This has not solved my problem.
there is an open wireless i can connect it -in ubuntu- but can not browse anything.we tried to connect via mobile it's working fine ,in addition via Windows XP it's fine ,but not in ubuntu why???!!

How to find a good proxy program to browse these web pages or if some plug-in is exist in Firefox to browse these pages, How to download it and teach me how to use it.
I'm connecting to a network via a Belkin F7D1101. The adapter appears to be working fine, as I can see various wireless networks available and I am able to connect to my personal wireless network. The problem is that even though I am connected and have a valid IP, I am unable to browse the Internet. I can't even ping the router!
I initially thought it may be an issue with WPA, but I have installed wpa-supplicant and as a means of testing, I turned off WPA on the router, and the issue still stands.
I just installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 10.10 on a HP DV2500 laptop. Everything installed as expected but I am having some wireless issues I was hoping somebody could assist me with. I am able to connect to my network via wireless with no issues. However, when I attempt to browse the internet it will not connect to any pages. Obviously when I connect it via CAT 5 all works as expected. Any ideas on how to solve my wireless issues?
my machine is a Compaq Prescario cq60 (amd 64bit).i have a problem with my ethernet card: the connection is very slow. my wireless has no issues.i cannot browse properly (eg cannot watch ..... videos), my torrent speed is at most 100 whereas with my wireless i got for the same torrent (almost at the same time) 300. (surprisingly, the ping to ubuntu.com is faster (~42ms) than the wireless(~48ms)).i had this problem in 10.04, and today i upgraded to 10.10 and the problem persists.
on the 9.?installation that i had about a year ago, i did not encounter any problems (also in my windows installation that i had some months ago).
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.
I have a acer aspire.
