Ubuntu :: Setup Up Samba Properly To Get It To Work?
Mar 7, 2010
I just installed ubutnu 9.10 and just installed samba. I edited the config files to workgroup to dhome which is the work group all my windows comptuer uses to share files. I want to share files and also be able to access files off my windows computers. I got onne windows 2000 that has a username needed to be typed in to access it. the rest is accessable. In the config file. I uncommented the security= user thing. I now tried to access the network but still fails.
Here is what I can see. when I go to places and click network I see windows network and click it it will say dhome and Workgroup. when I click on the dhome folder it takes a while and then gives me the error saying sorry didnt' get a list from the server. what do I need to do to access the network?

I'm having great trouble networking my computers
[Code]...
2 are ubuntu, 2 are XP. ubuntu machine 1 has printers. I managed to print a document from ubuntu machine 2 to ubuntu machine 1 via the network; however ubuntu machine 1's shared docs dont show up on any of the PCs. I am unable to see ubuntu machine 1 on any of the windows pcs, cant find the printers or any sign of the PC actually being there, but pinging the PC is no problem. Basically network printing from ubuntu 2 to ubuntu 1 works fine; but ubuntu 2 cant see ubuntu 1s shareddocs and vice versa. The windows PCs don't seem to even know that the ubuntu PCs exist. no printing or sharing

I have updated my laptop HP Pavilion dev7 to fedora 11. However, samba does not works properly. I can see share folders to mother machines, but not the shares in the laptop from other machines.The most annoying problem is that system-config-samba crashes. I run it as user, with sudo or su , but nothing.

i got everything working on my laptop, i just can't set up my network sharing..
I have a desktop pc running Windows 7, and this laptop running openSuse 11.1!
I use Gnome by the way... When i get to Network in Nautilus, i double click on Windows Network -> Workgroup -> Windows7PC, but at that point i don't see any folders or anything..
This is my smb.conf file:
Code:
# smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented
# version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the
# samba-doc package is installed.
# Date: 2008-12-03

In firewall i added Samba in broadcast, followed some tutorial on the net..

I had setup an encrypted home directory on my computer, following all the instructions. However, after one reboot, ecryptfs told me "ERROR: Encrypted directory not setup properly." So I rebooted into an Ubuntu Live CD and ran ecryptfs-recover-private. It found my encrypted dir and asked for my login passphrase. I entered it and it told me, "ERROR: The key required to access this private data is not available." Is there any brute force way to recover the key?

I'm currently running Koala on a Dell Latitude D630. I've been with Ubuntu since Hardy, so I have some experience, but this is beyond me. Basically, I was at school, closed my laptop, and bicycled home. When I opened it up at home, I saw a blank screen. When I tried to reboot, I was told that the disk couldn't be mounted. When I boot a LiveCD, I can see my two disk partitions (/ and /home) as "16GB Filesystem" and "95GB Filesystem". The 16GB system can't be mounted, and I'm pretty sure is fragged. I tried reinstalling Ubuntu, figuring that would fix it, but no luck- it starts fine, but it gets about halfway through and then says it can't install the files.
The machine is still under a service contract with Dell, so swapping out the HD itself isn't such a big deal. It would be nice to get my data, though. I can successfully mount the 95GB (/home) system. I then see two folders "dan/" and "lost+found/". I can't enter the "dan" folder because I don't have permission. Opening a terminal and navigating to /media/95GB Filestystem/dan/ works if I "sudo su root" first, but not as "ubuntu" In the dan/ folder, all I see is "Access-your-private-data.desktop" (because my /home directory is encrypted) and "README.txt". The README says to run the command "encryptfs-mount-private".
When I do that, however, I just get the message ERROR: Encrypted private directory is not setup properly I tried putting my decryption password immediately after the decrypt command, a la: encryptfs-mount-private mypasswordgoeshere but with no change in results. The one ray of sunshine in all this is that I backup my /home directory to an external every week or two. So the actual data loss is not catastrophic. But it *has* been a busy week, so I would really like to recoup that data, since it includes little things like the first chapter of my dissertation, and the job negotiation emails in my .evolution folder.

I have setup a second machine with slackware 13.37, it is a "supermicro" which I picked up though my work. the idea was to set it up as a gateway and gradually expand my knowledge of sub networking, iptables, forwarding and the like. after a couple nights of forum searching and "o'reilly" book reading I am still unable to get a proper route working thru the "supermicro" to our dsl router.
What is setup?: I will start from my main machine simply calling it slackbox
slackbox: has two ethernet cards which i have given static ip's to
eth0 192.168.2.16 and eth1 192.168.3.11
eth0 (192.168.2.16) is connected to a switch and then to our dsl router, it is working, I am using right now to work on this forum.
eth1 (192.168.3.11) is connected to the "supermicro" thru a cross-over cable, it also is working, pinging the "supermicro" works.
default gateway on slackbox is set to be 192.168.3.10 (the supermicro)
I only set slackbox's default as 192.168.3.10 when testing to see if the supermicro gateway will work
supermicro: also has two ethernet cards which i have given static ip's to
eth0 192.168.3.10 (this is the card with the cross-over cable connected)
pinging 192.168.3.11 (the slackbox) works.
eth1 192.168.2.24 is connected to our switch as well, it is working, pinging our dsl router works.
default gateway on supermicro is set in rc.inet.conf to be 192.168.2.1 (which is our dsl router)
All my machines have two ethernet cards. This has just made it easy for me to test the setup while still having internet access on slackbox. Yet when testing the gateway from slackbox thru supermicro I am getting "Destination Host Unreachable".

I'm running a Slackware64 13.0 machine with the following line at the end of crontab -e:
Code:
@reboot rm -rf /tmp/*
Yet /tmp is not clearing.
This exact same setup is working fine for me on two 13.1 boxes and a -current machine; what gives?

Long story short: I opted to encrypt my home, enter the passphrase and soon as I log out and rebooted, I got stuck with a message about /var/lib/ICEauthority file and other messages. So I've been trying to fix one issue at the time. The bottom line is that I'm trying to get to my private folder. Dropped in recovery mode:

I am using Fedora 12. I have the following problem, when i working with system-config-samba dialog:I add the new user on the server:as following:
Unix username: vova
Windows username:test
As described in Customisation Guide for Red Hat 9: "If the user has a different username on a Windows machine and will be logging into the Samba serverfrom the Windows machine, specify that Windows username in the Windows Username field."So i logged from the Windows machine not under test(Windows username) but under vova.And i logged in without the problem. However it seems that samba should check windows username=test (as have written in samba-config) and ask an password for different users. And additionally, if samba check the currect user in Windows itself and verify it with Unix user, what for we need write the Windows username in samba config? I don't understand

How would I edit the files, for this under slackware with permissions for my other users to use it? I have been following the guide, and I have not gotten far. I have created the recommend mythtv user and have mythtv installed. Also should I switch to 64bit slackware for this project? I have 1 gig of ddr2 ram, 64 bit capable pentium 4 ht cpu clocked at 3Ghz, 80gigabyte internal hard drive, and I have a wintv card.

I've spent days trying to setup access properly from a public address to a monitoring server that works fine locally. Everything works from public access until I try to link to a CVS repository. The rancid CVS repository is set up as a separate server (virtualhost). It appears the referring link causes a DNS error (105: Server Not Found) when the CVS repository server is accessed from the public address. Things work fine when accessing via localhost.
Localhost link:
[URL]
Public link: (this results in 105 error caused by redirection (bold portion of link))
[URL]
Code:
Virtualhost config:
LoadModule jk_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_jk.so
JkWorkersFile /etc/apache2/workers.properties
JkLogFile /var/log/apache2/mod_jk.log

Ever since installing 10.04 my fonts won't work. I've installed MS True Type every possible way I can and they still won't work.
After installing they seem fine in all applications, except on the internet. Both FF and Chrome can't seem to read (MSTT) fonts, at all. Every website I open fonts are displayed the same as before I install MS True Type.

I have set up an apache 2 server, but can't seem to get authentication to work properly. I have set up this in my apache2.conf:
Code:
<Directory /var/www>
AllowOverride AuthConfig
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www>
AuthType Basic
[Code]...
I have created the passwords file with htpasswd and defiantly have the right password for bob. However, when I try to log in the box just comes up over and over again and never authenticates. What am I doing wrong? I'm a newbie, so please bear with me if I've missed something really stupid.

I am trying to install some packages in a ubuntu 8.10 server, however, apt-get doesn't work (I get several 'not found' errors). Is there any way to do that? I know this version is probably not supported anymore but I can't just format a customer server because it's OS is outdated...I just can't put my sources.list on it because I am on ubuntu 10.10 and it would download updates for the wrong OS probably causing a huge damage on the old one.

I just installed kubuntu 9.10 on my new PC (HP Pavillion). I'm new to ubuntu, I had some experience before with mandriva.Most things work properly but there is a strange problem with the mouse (USB), and more precisely with that little wheel which stands between the two buttons. Turning it when the pointer is on some web page (using firefox) I expect the page to scroll. So I turn the wheel in one direction and the page scroll up. Good!I tried with other programs (konqueror, kmail)... and still the same happens, I can only scroll to the top.

I am trying to setup Samba to connect to my NAS drive, so far I have it connecting but normal users only have read only access, this is what I have done so far
Code:
mkdir /media/Data
Fstab
Code:
//192.168.2.150/Data/media/Datasmbfsusername=username,password=password00
I know putting the username and password in the fstab is not the best, but to start with I am trying to get everything working.
what I need to do to give my normal users write access to the share?

I am running ubuntu 9.10 on a dell mini 10v. I am experienced in running themes and xsplashes, but for some reason i can not successfully install pointers. I drag and drop the pointer themes to the appearance window found from System>Prefrences>Appearances. When i click customize i see that the pointers i instatlled are there, however when i choose them it doesn't work properly, if i go over text or resize a window i see the new pointers but the main pointer always stays the default white.
