Ubuntu Networking :: NFS Mount Produced Circular Links On Urix?
Jun 20, 2011
I was setting up an Ubuntu server for a client who runs a rather old version of Irix on an SGI O2 machine (he uses some design software that does not run on newer hardware). This version of Irix can only use NFS V2 or V3, so I setup the exports file on Ubuntu to use nfs3. However, when the file system was mounted on Irix, everything (including flat text files) was mounted as a directory, i.e. everything in the Ubuntu directory was mounted as a circular link to its' self After _much_ faffing about, I found that using nfs2 in the exports file fixed the problem, and the client was a happy camper again.

I work in a lab when all the guys use PCs with Windows and access the lab linux servers via ssh.
I prefer linux, so I have a local installation of ubuntu 10.4 on my PC. I mount the home of our lab server using mount server:/home /mnt/home/. I can then access the files on the server (I had to change my local UID to match the one assigned to me on our server in order to be able to write to my home dir).
The problem is all the (symbolic) links I have on the server don't work when I access them through the mounted location. I guess the system simply tries following the link in my local /home instead on server:/home.

I'm setting up an ftp server with lucid server. A lot of the folders that should be accessible via the ftp are in different directories (and can't be moved without a LOT of hazzle) and I have to either symlink or mount bind them to the ftp chroot dir. Now I'm wondering which one is the saver variant? My guess is mount bind, but I'm not that familiar with the internal workings of linux and vsftpd (plus for symlinks I wouldn't have to change/create any scripts, just create them once...),

I want to install RTAI in UBUNTU Lucid 10.04 in my PC which has not direct Internet connection. I download all packages for installing build-essential with another PC. I have installed all of them. But when I want to install g++-4.4, it depends to libstdc++6-4.4-dev and vice versa.

I am a fan of films that record with a DVD recorder with HD model Samsung.Wanting to pass on what I recorded on pc I had to burn movies on dvd rewritable, as the Samsung does not make me move movies on USB stick.Then I finalize the DVD with the DVD recorder that ever so I created a 4.7GB VIDEO_TS folder and G with related vob files inside.This dvd if you put them on the PC with Windows start and I can see the actual content of the file in Windows Explorer and then copy them to develop.If the computer starts with Ubuntu 9.04 I can only see them through mplayer, I have to say to open the DVD, but I can not get to see the content.Tells me that it is impossible to mount the dvd (permission problems), sees them empty to format, in short, with Ubuntu I can not have files for them to process.All this happens only with DVDs burned on my dvd recorder from the table.

At my Uni, we use a web-based login for our internet connections. Its based off of Cisco, and every Wednesday night every computer on campus must re-enter their credentials to use the network.
Normally on my several computers I simply pull up the Terminal, point links to google.com using
Code:
And enter my credentials when Cisco redirects to the login page.
Literally, the process is
Code:
Then ENTER to accept the redirect, down arrow to skip over the logo image, USERNAME, ENTER, PASSWORD, ENTER, ENTER.
Naturally, this is EXTREMELY time consuming, as I have about 5 computers located around campus and must physically walk to the machines and login every single week.
My question is, How would I formulate a program that does the following;
1) checks for connectivity (i.e. is able to reach/resolve to the greater part of the internet) and
2) automatically fills in the credentials on the links login page?

I'm having some problems emerging things on my newly installed Gentoo box.Almost everything I try to emerge gets me stuck in this circular dependency with file and eselect:
Code:
(sys-apps/file-5.05, ebuild scheduled for merge) depends on
(app-admin/eselect-python-20100321, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
(app-admin/eselect-1.2.11, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
(sys-apps/file-5.05, ebuild scheduled for merge) (runtime)
I have set the USE flag "-python" on file, but it didn't break the loop.

i play around with c for producing some io to a san-disk and struggle with basics here. :-(
if i'm using the write()-call to write 1 byte to a file on the disk iostat tells me i'm producing 3 writes. if i write 1 byte twice a second, it tells me i produce 6 writes (w/s).

I have a personal wiki of notes, with now thousands of links in markdown format:
[link text](http://example.com)
but now that fckeditor is available for mediawiki (very beta), it has become much better to just stick with wikitext format. There are only a few conversions to do: tables, links, and bulleted lists. The lists are a fairly simple regex and fckeditor magically reformats the tables, so all I'm left with is the links. But I'm not a regex master. How do I reformat code...

My hosting server is running Linux / Apache. It would be very nice to be able to link some files (preferably hard links, but symbolic links also would help), but haven't a clue how to do so. I would be willing to write a server side php script if that would do the trick.

I'm trying to setup a linux box with 3 NICs (2 WAN links and 1 LAN). All http traffic (port 80) should go to WAN 1 via squid proxy and the rest to WAN 2. I already setup MASQUERADING in iptables and I already configured port 80 to redirect to port 3128 for squid. My default gateway is WAN 2. But the problem is squid uses the default gateway - WAN2. setting up the iptables / routing for squid to use WAN 1?

I have a Samba share that contains a symbolic link and when I try accessing it from the WinXP machine it denies permission. If I access it from the Linux account, it goes in with no problems. Is there a certain setting that needs to be set or enabled or is this just one of those things with Samba?

I've created two samba shares, /media/disk1 and /media/disk2 say the structure is like this:
/media/disk1/dir1
/media/disk1/dir2 links to /media/disk1/dir1
/media/disk2/dir1 links to /media/disk1/dir1
so I can access /media/disk1/dir1 and /media/disk1/dir2 from samba share, but I cannot access /media/disk2/dir1, on Windows 7 it throws:
Quote:
[Window Title]
Location is not available
[Content]
N:dir1 is not accessible.
Access is denied.
[OK]
In conclusion, symbolic inside the same drive is okay, but when cross-drive links happened, I cannot access them..

I have an apache server running on my ubuntu machine. I can view them using my local ip (192.168.1.6):80/. And my friends can view the things hosted on my server using my external ip (example http://123.123.123.123:80) but when a friend links back to me to show me what they are looking at and share the moment, I can't view the link, it simply redirects to my router login page.
I had an older linksys router and this could work fine. I could click on the links with my external IP and it routes back to my server for viewing.
Remember to note that I am on the machine that has the server, and I'd like to be redirected out and back to it so we can share pictures back and fourth without me having to replace the external IP address with my local one just to view that link in the browser.

I have a Dell Inspiron 1720 running Ubuntu v10.04 with a wireless card.My desktop is a Dell Optiflex running WinXP.The desktop is connected via ethernet cable to a Linksys wireless router. Certain folders on the desktop are set for sharing. Up until early last week I was able to access the desktop folders from the laptop with no issues.Suddenly I am now getting this error "Unable to mount location Failed to mount Windows share" whenever I try to access the desktop folders from the laptop.I suspect an upgrade is the culprit, but not sure.

I have been trying to share folders from my main PC which is running Ubuntu 10.04. I have been able to figure out Samba enough to get my a couple of folders shared, but I have been unable to share any folders which are on my external harddrive. After entering the path in my smb.conf file they appear on the network but I am unable to navigate to them. When trying to navigate to them through the network folder on the pc they are actually connected to I get an "Unable to mount location: Failed to mount windows share" dialog box. On the windows pc I am trying to share with I get, "Windows cannot acces \Josh-Desktop
ame of folder"
My smb.conf file looks like this:
That folders I cannot access are Music and Videos.

I have recently set up an ubuntu installation on an old PC. After some fiddling with both it, and the windows 7 machine, I have managed to share all of my drives. However, when attempting to access them from ubuntu, only 2 of the 4 hard disk shares will mount, with the other 2 failing with a Unable to mount location, failed to mount windows share error message.

I'm researching about symbolic links been used with samba / CIFS:I'd like that the user that uses a MS-Windows OS could see my shared folder on CentOS 5 and the symbolic links that are inside this folder. Well, it works but, the user will see that the size of the file is bigger than the real file. Apparently, CIFS gets the size of the symbolic link (aproxim.32K) and add it to the size of the file.Example 1: 100KB file, used with shared folder, MS-Windows's user will see 100KBExample 2: 100KB file, used with symbolic link inside a shared folder, MS-Windows's user will see 132KB. (Sym link + size of file)Is there a way to allow the user only see the size of the file, and not the file + symbolic links ?

I have an application pushing data on long WAN links. The application runs on RHEL4.
It is not able to utilise the complete available bandwidth. I was told that kernel needs to be tuned for "long fat" links, so that the system starts utilising complete available bandwidth. I found a link [URL] however it is on FreeBSD.
