Fedora Networking :: Setup To Share And Transfer Files Between The 2 Or 3 Pcs?

Mar 15, 2009

My main pc is this Fedora 10 pc. I have two other pcs that run different Linux distros from time to time. What is the basic setup to share and transfer files between the 2 or 3 pcs? They are connected through a 2wire modem/router.

Do I need Samba installed? or is that only if to need to network with a Windows pc?

Ubuntu Networking :: Setup Home Network And Share Files?

May 31, 2010

I just switched over to ubuntu 10.04 LTS Netbook Edition from Windows XP and I am wondering how to setup a home network and share files with other computers in my house? I tried going to Preferences -> Personal File Sharing. But the options for 'Share Files over the Network' is grayed out. The message is "This feature cannot be enabled because the required packages are not installed on your system."

Fedora Networking :: 12 Hangs On Transfer Of Large Files?

Dec 9, 2009

I have Fedora 12 (with all the latest patches, including the 2.6.31.6-162 kernel) installed on a new Supermicro SYS-5015A-H 1U Server [Intel Atom 330 (1.6GHz) CPU, Intel 945GC NB, Intel ICH7R SB, 2x Realtek RTL8111C-GR Gigabit Ethernet, Onboard GMA950 video]. This all works great until I try to transfer a large file over the network, then the computer hard locks, forcing a power-off reset.

Some info about my setup:

[root@Epsilon ~]# uname -a
Linux Epsilon 2.6.31.6-162.fc12.i686.PAE #1 SMP Fri Dec 4 00:43:59 EST 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[root@Epsilon ~]# dmesg | grep r8169
r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.3LK-NAPI loaded

[code]....

I'm pretty sure this is an issue with the r8169 driver (what I'm seeing is somewhat reminiscent of the bug reported here). The computer will operate fine for days as a (low volume) web server, and is reasonably stable transferring small files, but as when as I try to transfer a large file (say during a backup to a NAS or a NFS share), the computer will hard lock (no keyboard, mouse, etc.) at some point into the transfer of the file. It doesn't seem to matter how the file is transferred (sftp, rsync to NFS share, etc.).

Ubuntu Networking :: Slow Transfer Speeds From 10.04 To XP Share

Aug 4, 2010

I've just managed to access my windows share from Ubuntu but am now getting write speeds (to xp share) of only 9MB/s over my wired network, anyone have any ideas as to why this may be? I've googled but can find no specific answer.

My NIC is:
Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5784M Gigabit Ethernet PCIe (rev 10)

Ubuntu Networking :: Slow Transfer To Mounted CIFS Share?

May 2, 2010

I have a Hitachi SimpleNET adapter (entry-level NAS device) on a Seagate FreeAgent 1TB external HDD (formatted ext3). The NAS device is connected over 100MB/s ethernet to a Netgear Wireless G router. All other devices connect using Wireless G. The NAS runs embedded Linux on an ARM processor and it runs vsftpd and Samba for file transfers.

If I transfer a large file using an FTP client the transfer maxes out at around 2.5MB/s. For my purposes that's good enough, especially considering the Wireless G bottleneck. If I transfer a file from a Windows 7 client (using samba) I get around 2.2MB/s. I know the CIFS protocol has more overhead than FTP and the difference in speed isn't that noticeable.Any combination of Ubuntu and Samba results in me getting less than 1MB/s. I've tried mounting it through Nautilus (GVFS) and /etc/fstab. FTP from this same Ubuntu client gets around 2.5MB/s.

I don't have root access on the SimpleNET to change the smb.conf. I've made a few adjustments to the mount options with no success. how to either speed up 10.04 as a Samba client or mount a folder on an FTP server locally? I've tried both curlftpfs and FUSEFTP. With curlftpfs any write operation results in an I/O error and it crashes intermittently. With FUSEFTP I never got that far and couldn't even browse the folder.

Fedora Networking :: Network Share Files With Windows ?

Sep 1, 2011

I am trying to both access files shared by Windows machines on my network, and I also want to share files on my Fedora 15 box. In Nautilus, if I choose the 'Browse Network' option on the left toolbar, I am shown a Windows Network icon. If I try to double click this, I am given an "Unable to mount location" error. Does anyone know why this is and how to fix it? Further, where is the GNOME 3 option to right click and choose to share a folder? Both KDE 4.5/4.6 and older versions of GNOME (at least on Ubuntu) had this. Is there a way to share files this way, and if not, is there some workaround?

I need to transfer some a large amount of file from my Linux lap-top to my desktop Windows machine. Can I connect the two computers through a simple crossover cable and simply navigate into the Windows machine and move to files manually or if not, what's the best way to do this? I don't want to burn a bunch of disks.

Networking :: Scp - Two Computers - Can Only Transfer Files One Way?

Feb 13, 2009

I currently have two computers (one windows one linux) connected to each other via a crossover ethernet cable. Now, each computer can see each other and I can ping both ways. Also, I can ssh into the linux box from windows (putty, cygwin) as well as ssh into my windows machine from the linux box. Here's the problem: I can send files from my linux machine to my windows machine with no problems doing this:

scp this_file.txt windows_user@10.10.10.11:/cygdrive/c

however, I can't seem to send from windows (cygwin) to the linux machine. Here is what I see at cygwin x-term prompt:

$ scp that_file.txt jqweezy@10.10.10.10:/home/jqweezy
jqweezy@10.10.10.10's password:
Executing /etc/profile ...

Now, it seems like everything went fine. However when I look in /home/jqweezy that_file.txt is not there.

p.s. Don't know if this helps, but here is some extra info. Linux machine has only one NIC. Windows has two NICs, one NIC is setup for automatic network detection the other is setup for communication with linux machine via crossover cable (see above).

CentOS 5 Networking :: SCP Fails To Transfer Files?

Apr 11, 2009

I have two CentOS 5 servers that I'm trying to transfer files between. They're on the same LAN switch, same subnet and everything. So far, everything I've attempted has failed, but scp still exits with a return code of 0. It only displays a line of *** and exits immediately. It's almost as if the file transfers instantly, but no file actually gets copied. Here is the verbose output from scp:

Ubuntu Networking :: Authentication Blockage When Trying To Setup Printer Share

This works fine - can ping both ways and can 'see' both icons however when I try to setup the printer in Ubuntu the task fails at a prompt fpr user name - workgroup - password prompt. It tells me I must give a password to connect to the Windows box. This setup has worked when using WinXP but fails now. I have used all passwords known to me but nada. Where in the world is the Authentication dialogue originated? I'm both new to linux commands and loosing the will to live!

Fedora :: How To Transfer Files

Mar 13, 2010

im running fedora 12 and am relatively new to linux..i have been unsuccessful researching this issue.a complex task for an otherwise simple question.perhaps the phrase is not native to linux but the operation is universal.how to transfer filesr move files from one location to another.on windows there was a tweek i found that added an option to the context menu "move to".it would physically move the file.any file to any location.fedora has "send to" but leaves the original and may not be the correct method.fedora also has copy/paste but does that duplicate or merely produce a copy?i want to transfer or move video files both small and large and audio files as well.i want to move them from one hd to another.code is possible but would prefer a more manual solution such as an application or context menu option.perhaps copy/paste would be legit enough for linux and i can see why.but for windows copy/paste and "send to" were considered sub standard methods of file transfer.

Ubuntu Networking :: Permissions With Shares - Transfer Files

Feb 14, 2010

I've been using Ubuntu for about 2 years now, but still have trouble with some of the finer workings of linux. I have a laptop that I use for general computing, and a desktop hooked up to a TV as sort of a remote backup/htpc. A problem I run into is when I transfer files, they get transfered with the owner set as the original computer's account, and I can't do anything until I open a remote viewer and gksudo nautilus to change the permissions of the file. I looked at articles about permissions and uid's, gid's, and umask but can't figure out how to apply it to my situation.

I thought about doing something with groups but am not sure exactly what, and anyway, default group settings only give read access and what I'm really looking for is the ability to manipulate files and folders across the entire /home dir on my desktop from my laptop. Desktop is running 8.04 and laptop is running 9.10. BTW I am currently sharing through smbfs. I read that this has been replaced by cifs, but at the moment I would prefer not the mess with things if I don't need to.

Networking :: Automate The Transfer And Processing Of Files Between Two Systems?

Oct 30, 2010

I'm trying to automate the transfer and processing of files between two systems to help test and compare a new server installation. The workflow is a bit complex but I'm basically modifying a script on server 'A' to push a file to server 'B' as standard input to another script.

[Code]...

But no luck. I've tried it without the port in the server_args parameter, without the '-l' option; I've tried having the server parameter set to 'tcpd' and the call to '/bin/nc' in the server_args too. But no success. Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong with the config? PS. I've restarted xinetd and server B is listening on port 1112 and accepting connections - but nothing gets piped into the script on server B.

Networking :: Using Kermit To Transfer Files With 3 Server System

Mar 23, 2011

Here's the system:
1 server running regular Ubuntu, 40km above the surface of the earth on a scientific balloon behind an iridium modem (RUDICS) connected to its serial port
1 server on the ground running Ubuntu server
1 intermediate server used for contacting the iridium system from the ground server

I'm not sure if all the above details are completely necessary but I included them for completeness. I would like to be able to log into the balloon server and transfer files in both directions. The procedure for connecting is to telnet to the intermediate server and then to issue some modem commands to call the balloon. The balloon server is set with getty running on the serial port connected to the modem. The way I have figured out to transfer files is to run kermit on the ground server and connect to the balloon server through the intermediate server, then run kermit on the balloon server, and set it as a file server with the server command.

However, there is some sort of timeout or something, and only a few kB of any file gets transferred before the connection is broken. After that it seems like the ground server is trying to get the file from the intermediate server (which has no useful files on it at all). The file transfer screen stays open and it keeps trying and trying to transfer, until I type ^C. I don't know if there is a way of detecting through a kermit command whether the connection is still open or if there is some sort of switch to make the transfer automatically stop once it has stalled.

I have been reading about No Kermit Server (NKS) protocol, which seems to be designed for a system like this where the connection is across a third server. Is this likely to do a better job of keeping the connection open and the file transfer going? How can it be implemented? Is there any kermit command to determine from the ground server whether the connection is actually still open? Is there any way of telling whether the connection goes all the way to the balloon server or whether it ends at the intermediate server? I actually just learned about kermit today.

On a related note, is it possible to have the balloon server running getty on the serial port but still have the port accessible for reading and writing by, say, a python script (which could use the modem to dial down to the ground when it isn't in use)? It doesn't seem to work but I'm wondering if there is a way. Is there a way to temporarily stop getty, then restart it, or is this potentially hazardous? Keep in mind there will be no way to contact it if something goes wrong since it will be 40km above the earth.

CentOS 5 Networking :: Transfer The Files From A The Client To The Server Using FTP?

Feb 27, 2009

I'm carrying out a project for my university (CIT in Cork, Ireland) and I'm using CentOS running over WMware. I have a server and a client. The server has no GUI (command line UI) while the client has a UI. I need to install a Simple Forum Machine application and I'm told to FTP the files into the server. I figured out that the best option is to load the files in the client via the GUI and then ftp them in the server. How do I transfer the files from a the client t o the server using FTP? I'm totally new to Linux so the more details the better. Also I'm trying to mount a USB key on the server but have had no luck.

Ubuntu Networking :: Setup A Wireless Or Wired Network To Share Connection

Feb 25, 2010

I'm trying to set up a wireless or wired network (wireless would be better...) to share my connection with my housemate, as well as with some devices. The only guide I found regarding this (I must admit, I didn't have much time to put into research), was dating back to 2005, and although doable, seemed somewhat confusing. Getting to the point: is there a way (maybe a standalone program, or some kind of plugin) to share a connection?
