lately, after shifting to 10.04, when I copy files from the Ubuntu to my XP shared folders, it goes very very slow. i restarted the router and nothing changed. I can see the folders, but the copy speed is still very slow.

I am able to view my windows network from my UBUNTU desktop after being prompted for a username and password to the windows network. No problem. But how can I accomplish this from the command prompt?
Here is my windows directory; smb://corpserver/d$/Data
And here is what I am trying to accomplish;
Code:
mv /var/lib/mysql/RSecuredData.csv smb://corpserver/d$/Data/Common/Secured%20R%20Reports/$(date +%Y%m%d)_RSecuredData.csv
Basically taking a csv file and moving it from mysql directory on my Ubuntu machine to a network folder on my windows server. (Windows Server 2003)
When I try that command from the command prompt I recieve;
Code:
mv: cannot move `/var/lib/mysql/RepoSecuredData.csv' to `smb://corpserver/d$/Data/Common/Secured%20Repo%20Reports/20100323_RepoSecuredData.csv': No such file or directory
I was wondering if there would be a way for me to copy the contents of a shared folder that's running on an XP system using shell script. Actually, there are two shared folders that I want to do this with. I want to be able to launch the script and automatically copy all the contents of each folder into two separate folders on my ubuntu desktop. For example;
Lets say that I have Shared Folders A1 and A2 on my networked XP system and I have Folders B1 and B2 on my Ubuntu desktop. I want the script to automatically copy the contents of A1 into B1 and likewise for A2 and B2. During the copying, I want the script set up such that any pre-existing files in the B1 & B2 folders will automatically get overwritten by the ones copied from A1 & A2.Is there any possibilities of me achieving this?
I'm trying to make an exact duplicate of just a folder (about 15 gigs) and I want to do it a "slow method" (basically I want to avoid any possibility of corrupting files. Is there something more useful than cp, I've been using that and I've noticed at least a few files have gotten corrupted.

I am attempting to make a shared folder for people that VPN into the network. This folder needs to be accessible to windows and mac machines. So far I have the VPN through ppptd working. I just don't know how to make a folder. I feel like this should be fairly easy. I am using Lucid Lynx server edition.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI wanted to enable file sharing in for one of my folders under the home directory. I noticed that the 'not shared' and 'shared' always defaulted back to 'not shared'. And now I see what looks like an electrical plug icon symbol over the folder icon symbol like I might see used for some of the root folders. What does the new icon indicate about the folder attributes and why does file sharing default to 'not shared'?

View 6 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to recreate all the folders from one directory to another without copying over the contents of the folder? I've been trying to do something like this,
Code:for i in `ls $X`; do mkdir $PATH/$i; doneUnfortunately $i is deliminated by whitespaces in the filenames and not the actual folders.
$X contains only other folders so I dont have to worry about regular files but any kind of more "advanced" solution would work.
I should know this but I figured I'd ask before I screw something up.
What is the command to cp just and only the contents of a folder, not the folder itself, into a new folder?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm having an issue setting up users for file sharing. In Ubuntu 10.04 (which is awesome btw) I right click the file, and share it on the network. I can see it right away on other machine, and login using the main user account on the server, no problem. I get an issue when I try to login to the share using additional account I setup. I get to the login screen, and it seems to accept the username and password as being valid (it doesn't bring up the login screen again), instead it brings up a error message saying it's unable to mount the share. It seems so much like a permission issue. I don't want to grant all kinds of access for these users, what do I do?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've just discovered something I've not noticed before in earlier releases. I have samba installed but like to go the easy way when setting up smb shares by right-clicking on a folder and selecting 'Sharing Options' (That, by the way, sets up the configuration for the share in /var/lib/samba/usershares rather than in /etc/samba/smb.conf.)
Trying to get my Mac to be able to access the share, I was trying different modifications to the share with right-click > Sharing Options > Modify Share. Each time I did so, this caused Nautilus to restart - that is, the whole desktop blanked out to just the wallpaper and then my icons slowly reappeared. Worse, a file copy was interrupted. And much worse, a lengthy video encoding using OpenShot was interrupted. Both the latter irretrievably.This is unfortunate behaviour. Has anyone else seen it? Can anyone else confirm this? I couldn't find anything on Launchpad.
I'm using ubuntu 10.10 inside Virtual Box. i have shared a folder on win7. i can't for the life of me find where that folder is in ubuntu now? maybe i'm missing a step with the whole folder sharing but a shared folder is created and the box is ticked, so where in ubuntu is it?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have set up Ubuntu 10.04 with a data partition mounted as /share that I would like to make available to all users. I have only managed to do this so far by using chmod and chown, can I flag the folder so that all users can read and write from it automatically? I'm looking for something a bit like "Ignore Ownership" on a Mac.

If I share a folder via email to abc@yahoo.com is it mean only share to abc@yahoo.com OR every ubuntu one user can access it if they have the link? Let user type in sharing title and message that appear in the email. This is because standard message and title always make people think that is spam virus and they ignore.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm attempting to write a simple BASH shell script to copy some files from one of my Ubuntu machines to another Ubuntu machine's shared folder. I've searched the forums but I haven't found anything on simply using cp across a network.Since Nautilus can do it I presume I should be able to do it from the terminal or from a BASH script -- this might be my first mistake?I have tried the obvious:
cp My_local_file //Name_of_other_ubuntu_computer/shareddocs
and
cp My_local_file smb://Name_of_other_ubuntu_computer/shareddocs
but those don't work. Sharing is enabled for the shareddocs folder.
I have tried mounting the remote shareddocs folder but it seems I need to install some other package to do this? If this is true, how does Nautilus manage to do it without an additional package?
I was wondering if theres a way to create a folder that would be accessible when I boot with windows or ubuntu? Is there some shared location I can place this folder?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI installed samba and set one of the folders on my desktop to share with my win7pc. However, I'm having some difficulty getting it to work. If anyone can provide some insight, I would be very grateful.
Both my ubuntu-pc and my win7-pc belong to the same workgroup. Each pc can ping the other. The ubuntu-pc can "see" that the win7 pc is part of the network; but it cannot communicate with the win7 pc. The Win7-pc does not show that the ubuntu-pc is part of the network.
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. On workstation I have created a folder 'Share', which I made shared for 'everybody'. Also I have installed smbclient and smbfs. With the Google I found this link: [URL] But there are errors on that page that have undermined my confidence. How do I access this shared folder?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running ubuntu using VirtualBox on a Macbook Pro. I wanted to share my documents folder on the Mac in the virtual machine. I had no issues creating/mounting the share folder on ubuntu. However the file permissions for the shared folder are owned by root.
Code:
drwx------ 1 root root 1088 2010-02-04 10:18 Mac_Share/
I used the following command to mount the folder:
Code:
sudo mount -t vboxsf Share_Documents ~/Mac_Share/
I checked that the folder is mounted I can see what is there using
Code:
sudo ls Mac_Share/
How do I make the folder accessible to the user? Is there another -option needed to do this in the mount command?
Every time I share a folder (using Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop), the share is gone after I reboot. How can I make it a permanent share that persists?
Note: I used the gui to create the share (if that matters). Once I get the share permanent, the next thing I'll want to do is automatically mount it from another Ubuntu Desktop computer on the network.
Note: this will be a "peer to peer" network. I don't have Ubuntu Server and don't intend to get it. Just have two Ubuntu Desktop computers.
I want to have a shared folder mounted on startup and I put the following in my fstab:
Code:
VMShare /media/VMShare vboxsf defaults,gid=1001,dmask=002 0 0
Where did 1001 corresponds to the virtual share group.
When I boot up the permissions are as follows(from ls -l):
Code:
drwxr-xr-x 1 root virtualshare 68 2010-10-27 15:45 VMShare/
So I'm curious why it's group permissions aren't the same as owner? In the fstab I put dmask=002 which should lead to rwxrwxr-x so basically full permissions for owner and group and read/execute for public. However thats not what I'm getting. Also once I get this working correctly am I going to have an issue if the virtualshare group isn't a users primary group? On some older unix servers I ran into this issue, hopefully it won't matter as long as the user in in the group.
I installed ubuntu in a desktop pc and without configuring anything i had my network working: 1 windows 7 pc which is sharing a folder with other 3 windows pc and with my ubuntu pc.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm in an organization where each user has a Windows network username, and a central windows server with a folder for each user. I can access the folder using SAMBA and my (windows) network user name. I want to change the permissions (sharing settings) for my folder on this windows server - using only Ubuntu.
Had i been using windows I would simply right-click on the folder, go to permissions settings and add/modify users in the list.First of all, is it even possible to do this using Ubuntu?
