Ubuntu Networking :: Access To Samba Shared Folder With Password

May 31, 2010

I have created a shared folder via nautilus. I can not access it, because it asks me for user name and password again and again. I'm sure both username and password are exactly right. But I can not access the folder. Only when I check "Allow guest user access" it will allow me to access my data, Which is not secure enough for me.

Ubuntu Servers :: Setup The MYSQL Server - Error: 'Access Denied For User 'root'@'localhost' (using Password: NO)'

Mar 26, 2010

I set up a servber on my local machine, & also PHp - Both working fine.I'm trying to load up MYSQL i have installed it, & *can* start/stop the server. however if I do anything else with it, I get this error :-

Quote:

root@gordon-desktop:~# sudo mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password MYPASSWORD
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'

Query :-

1) How do I know MYSQL is actually active ? (apart from the message it says that its statrted (or stopped).

2) Is there a way to

a) Find out the usernames that are recorded on the MYSQL server ?
b) set / RESET the 'root' username (I know MYSQL root user is different to PC root user)
c) anything else I can do on the PHP / website code to see if MYSQL is working

(as yet, no tables / databases etc have been set up - as I can't get past this error message - I get the same error when setting up a database.)

Ps I did allow my usermname (when logged in to ubuntu) to edit / create files in the /usr/www/ directory (but it is still OWNED by 'root' - that directory)

Server :: Ubuntu 10.04 - Shared Folder Access Without Authentication

May 25, 2011

Heres what I have and what I am looking to do. I have a PC with a single core 2 Ghz Pentium processor and 1 gb of RAM. Its pretty limited in what it can do and run. It has two physical HDDs one a 250 GB SATA and the other a 160GB SATA. One the two hard drives I have the following partition structure:

160 GB HDD
28 GB Ubuntu OS Partition
2 GB Swap Partition
130 GB Free Partition (EXT4 but empty)
250 GB HDD
250 GB Free Partition (EXT4 but empty)

What I would like to do is the following:
1. Strip down Ubuntu 10.04 to where only the bare minimums run and system resources (Since they are so scarce on this system anyway) be readily available
2. Have the system run solely as a Samba File server for all other computers in the house to read and write to
3. Allow other "known" systems to access the shared folder without authentication, but any system with an unknown name, should have to authenticate first
4. Have the 130 GB from HDA and 250 GB from HDB, be presented as one network drive of 380 GB as opposed to two of 130 and 250 gb respectively

Are these things that are possible for a person of mid level understanding of Linux? How would one set about achieving all of the above goals?

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba File - Access Shared Folder - Error: Failed To Retrieve Share List From Server

Sep 24, 2010

I have been having off and on issues with my samba file shares. I am sharing a NTFS formated hard drive where the mount point is in my home directory, as well as a printer connected via USB. I am to the point where printing works (using it as an ipp print share, samba is configured for it, but I don't know if it works or not), and I can access the shared folder from Windows, but I can't access the shared folder from any Ubuntu machine. I get the error:

Ubuntu Servers :: Everything Except /boot In Encrypted LVM And Want To SSH In And Give The Password

May 14, 2010

I want to have /boot as an ext2 (I don't need journaling and I might want to undelete something) and all other partitions in an LVM.When the server starts it will prompt me for the LVM password. I would like to be able to contact the server using SSH (or using another secure method) and tell the password. Since /usr/sbin and all the other partitions are inside the LVM I guess I have a problem?

Is it possible to setup something like this? The SSH session for the LVM authentication does not have to be a daemon. It can be something which just sits and waits until I connect and input the password. And then the "real" SSH deamon kicks in.

I have two computers running for daily use. One is called 'server' and it is powered by Ubuntu 10.04. The other one is called 'workstation' and it runs on Windows 7 professional.

Ubuntu Servers :: Give User Ftp Access To /var/www?

Feb 12, 2010

Apache by defaults points to /var/www/eachdomain. I need to be able to give users ftp access to /var/www/specific domains.

It seems that if I change the owner of /var/www/specificdomains/ to the user in question, then www:data no longer owns the directory and Apache starts to have issues..

What's the best way to set this such that I can allow users to FTP into specific directories, and still have www:data own them? I'm currently using vsftp, but that can easily change.

Ubuntu Networking :: Cannot Longer Access Win 7 Shares (password Prompt)

Dec 19, 2010

Everything was working well between my Windows 7 shares and all three of my Ubuntu machines. I just replaced my buggy belkin router with a Netgear one and now none of the Ubuntu machines can open my windows box through Nautilus. All three (one 10.04, 2 10.10) can see the Windows box but when I click on it I get the never ending password prompts. My Mac can access the Windows 7 machine fine, and all three Ubuntu boxes can access the shares with CIFS/autofs. I just can't browse the available shares using Places->Network. I'm lead to believe something on Win 7 reset when I changed the router but after two days I'm at a loss as to what it could be.

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Access Shared Folder On XP Machine

Mar 10, 2011

Been using Ubuntu now almost 1 year and love it but I'm still mostly lost so I need someone to explain in great detail how to be able to access the My Documents folder on my LAN XP machine. I've been up and working fine for 6 or 8 months but all of the sudden (maybe it was an update package?) I get the following error message, after a long delay, when trying to access the shared folder:

Could not open location 'smb://office/my%20documents/'Failed to mount Windows share.I have set an icon on the top panel mapped to the XP machine and launched by launcher.

Ubuntu Networking :: No Access To Win7 Shared Folder?

Sep 1, 2011

I've set up a laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 32bit and shared specific folders on my Win7 PC. Everything should work okay as they both can see each other, but when I try on Ubuntu to access the Win7 shared folder it asks me for username and password. In Win7 I'm always logged in as Administrator with no password set and Ubuntu won't let me connect to it leaving the password blank. It just keeps asking for my username/password over and over again without any kind of error message. It doesn't come up with 'access denied' or anything, it just keeps refreshing the username/password login/connect gui so I can't say which side of the fence the problem is occurring on though I suspect it's on the Ubuntu side.

I want a linux user (dave) to be able to switch to another account (patrol) without a password prompt, but dave must still be denied access to root. Patrol must also be denied root access.

Code:

Fedora Networking :: Cannot Access F10 Shared Folder From XP

Jan 16, 2009

Installed Fedora 10 on my Downloader (just a name for the pc as its mainly used for torrent downloading) computer. But I cant access the fedora shared folder from my windows XP. Accessing XP shared folders from F10 is fine. I have another 2 computer where I have installed Ubuntu 8.10. I have no problem accessing either of the Ubuntu system from my XP computer. The F10 computer comes up fine on my Workgroup list of xp. I double click to go into the F10, a login window pops up and askes for username and password. I used the normal username and root / password to log in. But it keeps popping up for password again and again. BTW, Recently I Installed Win7 Beta on the Windows computer and Surprisingly I can access the Fedora 10 computer shared folder just fine from Win7. But I need to get it working under windows XP.

Here is my smb.conf file
Code:
# Global Settings
[global]
# Network Related Options
# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, e.g.: MIDEARTH
# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field netbios name can be used to specify a server name not tied to the hostname. Interfaces lets you configure Samba to use multiple interfaces. If you have multiple network interfaces then you can list the ones. You want to listen on (never omit localhost). Hosts Allow/Hosts Deny lets you restrict who can connect, and you can specify it as a per share option as well

workgroup = THEMATRIX
server string = Samba Server Version %v
netbios name = MYSERVER
;interfaces = lo eth0 192.168.12.2/24 192.168.13.2/24
;hosts allow = 127. 192.168.12. 192.168.13 .....

Fedora Networking :: Cannot Access The Shared Folder

Apr 23, 2010

I've installed Fedora 12 on my laptop and when I share any folder and try to access it over the network using smb://<ip-address/<folder> it says "file or folder smb://..... does not exist"

Now if I simply try to access - smb://<ip-address> on the file browser it shows me shared folders but when I double click I get the same error.

I've SELinux disable, Firewall disable but I'm still not able to access these folders.

I did the exactly same samba configuration on openSUSE and I'm able to access the folder but not with Fedora 12.

Ubuntu Networking :: Access To Shared Folder In A Strange Configuration?

Dec 12, 2010

I've a question about a connection to a shared folder on a pc behind an ubuntu 10.04 server. The Ubuntu machine itself is behind a Cisco router. Cisco router has a nat 1-to-1 to Ubuntu machine with the static public ip x.y.x.z The Ubuntu machine has one only interfaces eth0 bridged with a virtual tap0 in the virtual br0 interface. This because on the Ubuntu machine is running OpenVPN in bridged mode. I want to reach a private share on the host 192.168.100.2 using the x.y.w.z static IP. Is that possibile? Ubuntu machine has no firewall running (I was not able to run shorewall firewall for now).
