View 1 Replies View RelatedI mounted a hard drive and its working ok. But I want to expand on it. I'd like to make it accessible via another folder, like make it look like /home/cackles/added as well as simply just /added. Is it just like when you mount the drive and add the line to fstab?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just sat up an openSSH Server with Samba access and all, but don't think about that.here's my question, and as you read you may understand why I posted this instead of googling it, it's un-google-able.can I mount a regular folder like /media/disk1/random to 2 different places ? and if so here's the tricky part:
1: when I end up in that folder, I don't want the direction path to end up like this: /media/disk1/random IE: so I don't want a link to the other folder, I want the OS to think it's a regular folder (in lames terms)the reason is because I want my openSSH clients to move inside a small space, without jumping all over the place, and be able to use the (...) feature in the SFTP client.(don't think about the permissions their already set.)
2: I don't want it to be a synchronized folder, I want the data to be stored on /media/disk1/randomor else it kind of blows the whole file storage server idea straight out of the window.
I have a 1TB external hard drive. I would like to create in it 10 folders:
Code:
I would then like to permanently mount each folder to its machine (I have 10 machines connected through a switch, so each machine will have a folder that is mounted to ONE of the 10 folders in the external hard drive).
My questions:
(1) Is this a good configuration? are there better ideas to give individual machines more space without replacing their hard drive?
(2) How do I limit each one of the folders ('folder1', 'folder2', ...., 'folder10') to a size of 100 [GB]? I don't want one folder (say, 'folder1') to grow in size and 'steal' the space designated to the other folders.
When I connect with my ubuntu 9.10 x86_64 freenx server from Linux/Mac share folders from client side will properly mounted and I can use with no problems.
When I connect to the same server from windows box, I get this error message:
Quote:
Info: Share: '//COMPUTER/FOLDER' failed to mount: mount error(5): Input/output error
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
Last two days I was googleing a lot about this but all I tryed didn't work.
Is there somebody share folder works from windows connection?
I have a computer running Ubuntu 10.10. I am using it to share many hard drives connected to it. I am using Samba. I have successfully shared many folders to one Windows user. I am attempting to share other folders within the shared folders to another user as read only but have not had any success. When I attempt to connect to one of the shares from another computer running Ubuntu 10.10, logged into an Administrator account with the same username and password which I setup on the Samba share I get the error: "Unable to mount location" "Failed to mount Windows share"
View 3 Replies View Relatedi want to have 2 partitions. one is called system. the other is private.
in the private partition i've got some folders i want to mount into system as system folders.
folders in private:
- www
- home
mount points in system:
- /var/www
- /home
is this possible? cause it seems that you can only specify a whole partition to use for a mount point and not a folder in a partition or am i wrong?

Moved to virtualization forum: [URL].. I just upgraded my Ubuntu VirtualBox guest to Lucid. My host machine shares two folders with the guest. I have them listed in my /etc/fstab so they're automatically mounted:
share /mnt/share vboxsf defaults 0 0 For some reason, it looks like Ubuntu attempts to mount these shared folders twice. The first time, the mount doesn't succeed, but the second time, it does, so by the time I actually log in, the shares work properly.
Karmic would just print an error message at boot, but now Lucid makes me press a key to continue booting when the mount fails. Ideally, I'd like to figure out how to make the first mount attempt work properly. But if that's complicated, just disabling Lucid's prompt would make me happy.
I created some .tar.gz archives, and later discovered that the archives include their mount points and drives as empty folders. How can I avoid that happening in the future? I suppose I did something wrong when creating the archives. I mean, what is the point of the archives having empty folders that represent the mount points and drives of the archived data?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using pcmanfm.I connect to internet using wvdial.I know that if I write a command in a text file and give it .sh extension and make it executable, then whenever I'll click that file the command will run.In nautilus you have the privilege that when you click a file you can select whether you will run it in terminal or display the contents or just run.But in pcmanfm or konqueror you do not get that option. I want that I will make a file named wvdial.sh and In the file the command wvdial will be written.When I will click it ,gnome-terminal will open and wvdial will run.Please tell me how I can do this with other file managers like pcmanfm or konqueror.know that if I give this command in terminal:./wvdial.sh it will run
View 5 Replies View RelatedFor not apparent reason, yesterday PCmanFM stopped showing CDROM on the list of mountable devices. Before, it was being listed every time I put some written cd/dvd in it.
I don't think fstab has anything to do with it since there was no change to it AND I know for a fact that the line in fstab for cdrom since 5 months is actually wrong.
I have found a bug, pcmanfm sometimes crashes with any right click, on the desktop or on any pcman window. The kernel.log sows: pcmanfm[1171]: segfault at 1 ip 00bd859b sp bfc189bc error 4 in libc-2.12.so[abc000+157000]
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn GNOME one can write an XML document telling the system when to change between various files to automatically change the desktop wallpaper, and then set that XML document as the wallpaper.
I have three I like to switch between, containing the schedules and playoff brackets of my favorite sports teams.
I've been using LXDE far more than I've been using GNOME these days, but LXDE won't let me set the XML as the wallpaper like GNOME does.
So after searching around a bit I thought I'd create a cronjob that would change the wallpaper every 20 minutes.
So I set up this
Code:
But it didn't do what I thought it would in changing my wallpaper automatically.
Since I had never used cronjobs before I thought I was doing something wrong in how I had it set up. Various tries to no avail.
But then I have the real problem none of the various I've treid of simply running pcmanfm --set-wallpaper or pcmanfm -w (the --help says they do the same thing) actually do anything. I've tried both with and without.
I changed the file manager from nautilus to pcmanfm via Ubuntu Tweak in Linux Mint 8. Is it safe to uninstall nautilus completely and just use pcmanfm?

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is a strange one... I updated my linux distro and all the software with it and now pcmanfm (my file manager) is broken.
After 98 updates and 4 hours of compiling all the other updates work fine except for the pcmanfm one.
Running it in the terminal says this:

I'm trying to familiarize myself with LXDE to help a friend of mine and one thing I just cannot solve, despite many googles, is how to allow a non-root user to auto-mount drives in the left-hand pane of PCMANFM.Everything works just fine as long as I have the root passwd. Not a huge problem but very irritating none-the-less.
View 9 Replies View RelatedRecently pcmanfm crashes more frequently then before. Each time it occurs, I cannot open another instance of it until I reboot my desktop/laptop. But this is not possible if I happen to be doing some long computational work. I have been using it with fluxbox for two years already, and previously I simply reopen another new window and get on with my work.

Anyone else running LXDE on sid have this issue?
I filed a bug report on Debian and at Sourceforge. [url] [url]
Trying to get a backtrace using gdb doesn't give any useful info:
I can't access (read/write) to my Windows partition from PCManFM on LXDE. On Gnome it is usually on the left side and you have to click on it and it mounts. I want to do the same for PCManFM. When I installed Debian with "Standard system utilities" it did work like it did on Gnome.
